The lovely Sarah over a Modern Country Style is having a link part about our most favourite parts/items in the kitchen.
So this got me thinking about what exactly are my favourite pieces in my kitchen, usually its the newest addition but there are some old favourites that seem to stay even after I've had a clear out.
This 'cafe' sign I made from an old piece of pine, I occasionally cheat if I can't find what I'm looking for and make my own. This 98% of the time doesn't work, they never quite look right but this one has stuck around. I like how it draws the eye to a spot in the kitchen.
Another favourite is these old scales I love the colour and patina and they add a bit of colour to the kitchen.
This cake stand is another miss-match item that I put together, I like the fact that it adds an English tea room look to the dresser.
and then of course my dresser is, as you can probably guess as it features all the time in my posts, my most favourite part of my kitchen. I have had this dresser through the 90's stripped pine stage till now, I love how I can change everything around to create a different look and just pick a few flowers from the garden and plonk them into a simple jar and it looks great every time.
Hello Deborah:
ReplyDeleteMay we remove your kitchen dresser absolutely complete as it is? We should love to have it and, whilst we should not covet our neighbour's property, we do feel a little envy creeping in. The 'CAFÉ' sign is wonderful and we are amazed that you made it yourself. Do you take orders?
love your cute kitchen!!

It always amazing me when I see the wonderful items that people collect and love. You made them all fit so nicely. Beautiful displays.
ReplyDeleteWhen I look in my kitchen right now, I see a ceiling with peeling paint and plaster dropping into the sink.
ReplyDeleteUntil this is fixed I will continue to admire yours. It's beautiful and apparently problem free:)

I LOVE your kitchen!! In fact, I love your whole style!! It's so pretty and dreamy!! Thank you so much for sharing your Kitchen Favourites!
ReplyDeleteThat sign is one of the most authentic I've seen. I know what you mean about made signs sometimes not looking quite right. But that one DEFINITELY does!!

I love your kitchen! I have a crappy little outdated apartment kitchen but yours has been my inspiration for finding new knick knacks and attempting to make it prettier:) I "borrowed" your idea for keeping white candles in a glass only mine are in a little zinc bucket!
