I have a confession. I spend WAY too much time in blogworld! It's kind of like my "retail therapy". Without getting out of the house. (and without spending any cash!). I live in this dream world right now imagining what our new house will look like. I dream of it having tons of character. I also love the idea of being able to incorporate our style into it by ways of RENOVATION. I know that sounds kind of crazy. But, new homes tend to lack character. So, I tend to be attracted to older homes with potential rather than brand spankin new ones.
As I was blog hopping this morning I came across this Kitchen before and after and fell in love! It's over at Eclectically Vintage. She did such a good job on this 1960's kitchen. Check out a couple of pictures...
Before...
and AFTER...
I LOVE those lights!!!! They are called demijohns. I found a few vintage demijohn table lamps that give the same feel over at Shades of Light. It comes in several colors. I'm not sure which is my favorite. But, I think this one would look JUST RIGHT on my end table.
Or...What about on my make believe buffet? I want a buffet/dresser something like these! I have been searching EVERYWHERE for a cheap fixer-upper like these. I like that they have legs. Most that I find go all the way to the floor. But, I like the leggy version better.
See, this is why I am a terrible blogger. My brain is all over the place. I really am a dreamer!
Oh, and while I am dreaming, does anyone have $50,000 we can borrow? Cause I really want this house.
Have a good weekend!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for featuring my kitchen! I love that demijohn light - in fact, I bought some of my lights from Shades of Light.
New follower!

You crack me up! I came across the same blog and loved the lights as well! I am addicted to blogging and my husband really thinks I have a problem! You hit the nail on the head-it is like retail therapy.
ReplyDeletei would love to see your slip covers when you make them. i wish you could get to Michelle's page, but she gave up blogging almost a year ago. not really sure what happened to her. we used to email every day and then all of a sudden she was gone.
