Finally...painting is done

Well, the major part of the painting is done. Tomorrow, touch ups and the baseboards. Then the cleaning up and putting back everything. I am pooped. I am so stiff from all the bending. I thought I was over that since I have been working out, but apparently I have no idea what muscles I was working out with. We went the color, sweet chamomile. It has brightened up the room and I love it.  

Pictures were hung of the wall art I created.  Little things left to do.

I have to make my paper for class top priority tomorrow morning as it is due on Monday.

Painting the town...I mean the kitchen

Not a very good picture but that's the lightening in my kitchen, which will be fixed too. Oh can you see how many projects will get started now! Anyway, hubby and Val like the light greens, Jen and I like the lighter yellows. Hubby even wants to paint the ceiling in the kitchen...we had our washer leak through the ceiling about a year ago and when we repaired it, the paint didn't quite match. I really like the tiling idea but he was not for it.

I am still narrowing it down, leaning towards a color called sweet chamomile..it's a soft yellow with just enough brightness to go with the dark cabinets and black appliances.

 I also am looking for herb prints to frame..not having much luck there though...may have to make my own.

Time for a Change...Kitchen make over

I am in the midst of planning a deep re-organizing of my kitchen. Cabinets, pantry, counters, everything will be re-organized. Items donated that I never use and those that are rarely used will be put up in those shelves that are touching the ceiling. I have it all planned in my head - it will look great. I even will be redecorating the kitchen with items I know I have in some closet in the house. Yes, this will be awesome when it's done. 

There's only one problem.

It's in my head. It won't come out because I am Queen of Starting Projects. 

But my kitchen looks totally awesome....in my head.
