" BJ - this is my kitchen - NOT my favorite kitchen!!!! Very small and needs lotz of updating. "

"Look at the door to the pantry in this one.....LOVE IT!!!!"

Me, too, Donna

" I love red in a kitchen, but it is still so light and airy!!!!!"

I love that pretty skirt under the sink

Just as soon as my sweet hubby puts in a FARM SINK just like this one,

I WILL have a pretty skirt beneath it, says bj

" I think the name of the blog from this one is One Woman's Cottage - I got these off flikr - but I do remember seeing a blog with the remodeling of this kitchen on it - and I absolutely love this kitchen!!!"

Many thanks, DONNA....these are ALL just fabulous

THE FOLLOWING 8 PHOTOS are from JANIE of SOUTHERN LAGNIAPPE

JANIE has this to say about her FABULOUS kitchen

"Like most people, there are things I like about my kitchen and things I don't like. We bought the house new and I didn't have any input into the design, but if I could start from scratch, these are the things I would change about it:

1. My first priority would be to lower the counter tops which are 38" tall. I don't know what possessed the builder to make them that high, but I'm 4'11" and have to stand on my tiptoes when I'm stirring something, or have to put the bowl in the sink to stir. NOT good!

2. I would also paint the walls "Powell Buff," by Benjamin Moore, to make the cabinets stand out, and would paint the island black, with a "distressed" effect.

3. I would replace the lower cabinets with drawers and install oil-rubbed bronze cup drawer pulls

Now, I would just about KILL to have these pantry drawers in MY humble kitchen

THIS kitchen has LONG been a favorite of mine since I first saw it posted on RATE MY SPACE, where it holds a VERY HIGH RATING

" Things I love about my kitchen:"
My Viking Induction Cook top (it's absolutely wonderful!)
Cabinet and Pantry Storage Space
Lots of Counter top Space
The China Cabinet with Glass Doors
Staggered Cabinets with Crown Molding
Viking Vent Hood


"If I had to choose my favorite RMS kitchen, I guess it would be this one by "sswelch" ... I love the contrast and detail of the white molding around the cook top."
MANY thanks for taking us on the tour of your lovely kitchen

The following 3 photos belong to one of my dearest friends,

ALICE

She has this to say about her pretty domain....

"I redid my kitchen and finally have it pretty much done. It's a small kitchen and room for only one cook at a time, but it works for me. I'm getting to the point that I don't want to put much more effort into redoing things anymore. It's a hassle for me to even paint nowadays so I just quit looking at that which needs it. "

Ha, haaa...Alice...I know JUST what you mean !!

Oh, Alice...I do love your light BLUE cabinets and the darker blue counter top...
and your new BLACK appliances look just perfect with your blue

YOU DID A FABULOUS JOB, GIRLFRIEND

MANY THANKS for sharing your kitchen with us
