Just a splash of fall...

in the kitchen.

It occured to me that I failed to take any pics of the kitchen table.

Nothing much, by any means.

Just a splash.

and, quite frankly, just enough...with 2 wild ones running around...

Flea Find: A Farm Table

So, back to the flea market finds...

(I told you I'd get to them at some point.)

That really was quite a day.

Believe it or not, I found TWO tables that day...no wait, I take that back...THREE tables that day!
This was one of them.

Those aqua chairs you see are from the old house...ones I found at a local thrift store years ago.

The white chairs are from IKEA...thanks to Fleming's recommendation (who swears they were one of the best IKEA purchases she's ever made).

Here's a sneak peek at the kitchen area. There's still more to situate, but if you only knew how far I've come...

Have a great weekend, guys!
...and happy hunting!

Welcome to Annie's House

I've had so much fun showing you a bit of Annie's home. It's pretty phenomenal, if you ask me. There's so many elements that I adore...and so many more that you haven't even seen yet! Of course, now that we'll be just around the corner, it'll be easy to snag a few pics of her next party- or redo... :)

In fact, I bet you'll be seeing a lot more Annie to this blog!

Welcome to Annie's: Kitchen

Annie absolutely has the kitchen to entertain. It's wide open to the family room and has tons of space for gathering.

She crackes me up with her "It's 5 O'clock Somewhere" theme throughout...

You'll see Howard Johnson's memorabilia (a family owned business back in the day) in several places around the house, but this old poster is my favorite.

It's truly a grand space...
a space where we've all spent most of our time...sitting...chatting...and sippin' on Toasted Head.


We're headed to the beach next week...Happy spring break, everyone!

The High Chair

I melted when I saw her.

Just standing there in the thrift shop...

whispering at me, "...you know you want me."

And, well, I can't deny that she was right.
I did want her.

...and 7 bucks is all it took.

The Big Kitchen Reveal!

There's been an addition . . . and it's a kitchen . . . in the kitchen.

Let me just start by saying Grady and I have been blessed tremendously to have 2 fabulously handy fathers. Grady's dad didn't even blink an eye when I asked him to copy this a few months ago. And, it was absolutely no surprise that it came out even more incredible than I had imagined it.

Annie played a pretty big part as well, sewing and painting and fixing up old baby doll high chairs . . .

Surely you haven't forgotten that perfect little shelf . . . 

or the little brown mirror I found a few days ago?

I still can't believe how perfect those finds were.

At one time, I wondered if it might be hard to part with the cozy little seating area we once had here . . .

until I began to see this sweet little image day in and day out. 

And, now, I really can't imagine anything better.

Home Tour: The Kitchen

Now, mind you, our kitchen is pretty small.  It does, however, open up to the family room, which has always made it feel a bit larger to me. Be aware, that there's no large island or grandiose gas stove, but it's worked out pretty well for our little family of three.   

You'll notice next to the windows is a seating area. This was originally meant to be a breakfast nook, and in fact, was when we were shown the house for the first time. However, I've never seen the need for this.  I'm not formal, and I don't need a formal dining room. So, our house has one (very INformal) eating area . . . in the dining room.
