~* Tweaking *~

Thank you all so much for your sweet comments on my last post...I didn't know there were so many "RED" lovers out there! I've been doing a little tweaking since my last post. I added the candle holders, sugar bowl and place mats. I'm pleased with it...I did some shopping in my own home to find these items which was even better! I love moving things around as I know many of you do, too.
I decided to paint the frame of my Susan Branch print...the frame was oak and I painted it RED.
This apron was the inspiration for my next phase of tweaking...
I took the colors from this apron and tried to incorporate them into what I displayed on my Amish made hutch...I still think it needs some tweaking...again, I used things in my home that I had stored away or were used elsewhere.
This is something new I put together...I found the cheese dome awhile ago, but didn't put it with a plate, until I was looking through several that had I stored away...I love the red and the delicate flowers.
My dear friend, Josie gave me several old cookie cutters for Christmas. I bought this jar and added them, along with others that I had.
The green platter belonged to my dear Gram...she used the green and white dishes at Christmas. The orange juicer is old, too...it belonged to my Gram also.
Thanks for stopping by to look at my "Tweaking"...I appreciate your visits and kind comments as always. I also can't even begin to express how thankful I am for all of your prayers for our trip to Florida.
Love, Kim

~*A Few More Kitchen Pictures*~

I can't thank you all enough for the many visits and kind comments you left on my last post...I'm so overwhelmed!!!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I inadvertantly left out a few pictures that I wanted to share for the Christmas Kitchen Tour...here they are:
This is my chalkboard...it's one of my all-time favorite things in the kitchen. I absolutely love having a chalkboard to write little notes and sayings (I know there are a lot of you sweet blogging friends that have shown neat ideas for chalkboards).
Here is the word PEACE spelled out with twigs that I glued together. I then used decorative ornament hooks to hang them on my curtain rod.
I know that some of you have tried Martha Stewart's glitter, well a few days ago I tried it for the first time and all I can say is WOW...I'm hooked...this stuff is amazing! If you haven't tried it before, I say RUN, don't walk, to your nearest Wal-mart to get some and give it a try. You'll be hooked like me!!!
I've been on a search for new cannisters...I was getting very frustrated because every set of cannisters I looked at wasn't what I was after. I finally found what I was looking for...at Walmart...they were right under my nose all along and I didn't know it!!! They were very reasonably priced and I think they have a nice old-fashioned feel, which is what I was after.
Ok, this wreath is not in my kitchen, but I wanted to show it to you anyways...I found it at JoAnn's last week for a few bucks...I added the ribbon...I bought two of them to hang on my laundry room windows. I showed my laundry room tour a few posts ago...Click Here if you'd like to see it.*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Melissa from Little Things In Life gave me a Kreativ Blogger award. Thank you, Melissa...I appreciate it! I always have a hard time deciding who to give these awards to so I'm going to dedicate it to all of you sweet, creative blogging friends in blogland!
