Chugging along……

My husbands contributionMy husband took out the built in flourescent light from above the sink and added an outlet for the hanging chandelier in the next picture.  He has hounded me all day to add his contribution to the kitchen remodel so here it is……7" wide 3 light chandelierCome to find out all I had was 7″ to work with and lol and behold my favorite great deal from a Target Clearance sale.  It’s been every color and been hanging around for about 5 years.

Talk about a great deal I found the shelf unit for $10.00 at my favorite store down the street in St. Charles.  I took back a $30.00 shelf unit.  Just couldn’t do it.  This is a great shabby chic look.

Called all over St. Louis for the fabric for my cafe curtains and finally had to order the fabric off the internet.  Found the rods at JC Pennys which I need to get along with rings this week.

I was able to cut the baseboard and paint it, now to figure out how to get it attached to the wall. My wrist and arms are sore from all this hard labor.

My furniture and pictures have rollar skates attached to them for easy moving.  I took the picture from the powder room and added it to the kitchen.  I LOVE this picture!!!

I painted the cabinet added a great knob from Anthropologie.  It’s a clock knob and I also found the red plate there.  I love their bowls.
