off with OLD, change to the NEW

I love change! The same hair style over and over again..will just get old to me...well, I dont mean that in a bad way..but I like mixing things up! I am not one of those people who can have that same look...one style..it's just not my personality. I like change! So, I decided to redo my kitchen. The last theme was Asian, and everything was was either Chinese, Japanese, or Korean...but it was all geared towards the Asain them. This motife is Country...So my husband sanded the cupboards down and painted them an antique white...and painted my kitchen a Bavarian Oak...since I had to start from the beginning again I had to do a lot of SHOPPING..which has been fun!

Ok so my favorite quote by Gandhi is centered under the Antique Clock...which I love, and the knobs on the cupboard was all me..I bought a whole bag of 22 at a garage sale for like $2 bucks..then we matched a can of glossy spray paint to the Bavarian Oak, and sprayed them all down, and finished them w/a sealer..I love it!


The shadow box is Greg's Great Grandparents. It totally fit with the whole theme..so it's cute that they are looking down on us in the kitchen.
I know I have a better picture of that.

here is more of the decor...I love the country theme a lot...it's so homely feeling.

I'm totally crunching the Bavarian Oak..and up against the washed white it really makes that counrty wood look come out!

The window is still not finished..I'm debating on leaving the blinds off, and just going with a curtain..or installing them again..I'm thinking the blinds dont go with counrty..but we'll see!

These were painted especially for the kitchen.
This pic shows the old cupboards and new ones. I so love them white.
