The thistles are blooming!  

Painting

I am not going to post pictures because I don't love what I did.  My kitchen was granny smith apple green when we moved in.  I love lilac and I had a lilac kitchen in my 2 previous homes.  I painted my kitchen a light shade of lilac and I don't like it. I don't even want to hang my things on the wall.  It just doesn't fit this house.  I am going with a good old fashioned white color.  I will buy the paint this weekend and get things hung on the walls and post picts.

Inspiration

Pinterest is a valuable tool in so many ways.  My husband thinks it was created by a woman so other women could look up ideas for things for men to do.

I draw my inspiration from pinterest.  I have a board called: Farm House, Dream House.  I pin little bits of this and that which I would love to incorporate into my house.  I have found pictures of house from the 1910's which is helping me decide how to decorate.  I think my style is a mix of English Farmhouse, Edwardian, Americana, Industrial.  Ok, may just say it is a mix of what I love.
