This is our kitchen at the yellow house.
It is small but has a huge bar on one end.
Both of us love to cook in this efficient kitchen with our glass stovetop.
I have taken photos of some of the details I like best and the art work we have in the kitchen.
It has lovely views to the backyard where we feed birds.
This is a vintage print, probably from the 1940’s, found at a thrift store. It has some damage but I adore the flowers and the soft colors. The frame has tiny pink scallops.
This tiny oil painting is leaning on the top of the stove and was found at a garage sale. All the people in it have on hats.
Corbels are underneath the massive bar. I call it the “autopsy table” sometimes. Which is sick nurse’s humor. It measures 49 inches across.
This makes it difficult to pass the taters across!
grace surrounds us
Olive
you have a comfortable welcoming kitchen. I just love mini pumpkins!! Cute on the cake plate.
ReplyDeletelol at the autopsy table. Love the corbels. Charming kitchen. I also like your artwork. I hope you'll drop by Atticmag to see our kitchens - it's a three for one!

Wonderful cabinets and windows and art and corbels.
ReplyDeleteLoving your kitchen at the yellow house!
I love the feel to your kitchen...I can see a lot of history was made and more to come with your family. Cute little roosters too Olive!
ReplyDeleteYour windows look beautiful, and I love all the great art work. I've been seeing allot of corbels tonight, think I might need to add some to my kitchen. Love yours.

Oh, what a fun place you have here! I have enjoyed perusing a few of your posts! Cute kitchen and great art! After you named the autopsy table, I thought it would be hard to serve from this spot :) Love your sense of humor!
ReplyDeleteHi Olive! Oh, I love your pretty kitchen! Love all of your special touches and vignettes! Your artwork is gorgeous!! Hmmm...now I'm thinking about your autopsy table!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you again, Olive, so very much for coming to my party.
You are a sweetie,

What a sweet olden kitchen! It is huge but still charming and cozy! You know not many kitchens can accommodate an autopsy table... LOL! :)

A delightful kitchen...so cheery and cozy. I love your crystal cake plate full of pumpkins. And, the row of chickens is adorable, too.
ReplyDeleteI so seldom get to see pinks in a kitchen...and I loved it! What a charming place to gather!!
ReplyDeleteLoving your kitchen! Kathy

Love your kitchen Olive, including the autopsy table! It really looks wonderful. You cannot beat a great big island like that! I also really love that oil fruit painting. It is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI love all the art you have found and so aptly described. I like very much the "hats" piece! The autopsy table I imagine comes in quite handy at Thanksgiving and Christmas when there may be a turkey carcass or two. Lovely space. Ann
ReplyDeleteHi, your kitchen is very pretty, love the cute corbels! and all the specials details!
