Kitchen

IMG_0221

– An old, painted-wood shelf is happily gracing the kitchen wall and looking after favourite coffee cups and tins of tea. I had grand plans of painting the wall, building a special unit, and more, but in the end practicality won and this shelf is doing a lovely job taking care of things. Kitchen work can wait till next year, or the year after, perhaps…

– And here is the sun shining through the window. Lemony chrysanthemums from here and an old 'Villeroy and Boch' jug from the op-shop down the road. It's been broken then glued up but I still love it.

    I woul day say definitely a good idea to wait a bit on the kitchen work after moving house. My ideas about what to do with ours changed over a year of living in the house and using the space. Really glad we waited now and very happy with the result. Nice shelf to use in the meantime.
