I've been piddling around lately and trying to work on arrangement of things. We cleaned out the pantry, but I wanted to do some things to liven up the kitchen counters. Since I'm not working, my budget is a big fat zero! haha but that shouldn't decide how I arrange things, right?
Here's my coffee pot spot - before ...and after.
What do you think? I used the plate to cover the electrical outlet. The little duck basket is cute so I filled it with the sweet-n-low. And finally, my daughter, Brooke, sold me this cute cheese board from her Pampered Chef business.
Now for the other side of the stove.
I found another basket, this time with a metal base. It didn't have the legs though, but I searched and found this riser under my cabinet. I only use the riser once or twice a year, so now I've got it pulling more hours in the kitchen! Clorox wipes aren't too attractive, so I moved a pitcher from the other side of the room. You may not be able to see it, but it has a little bit of the blue like the knife block.
Sometimes it just takes a little extra care with what we have. I may add a sign for the nail above the stove and I'm also considering a tiny lamp for the corner. We recently repainted the entire house white (Mr. Amazing's favorite color), however, I really think I need a background stencil, tile or something for the background. I'll think on it!
Well, I got that out of my system. Now on to more scrubbing! Happy spring, everyone! Wishing you a clean and very attractive home this year!
