Julia decided it was time to update her kitchen, and who can blame her? It somehow managed to be gloomy and dim despite that giant window trying its darndest to lighten things up.
So she tweezed that window’s bushy eyebrow curtain down to a manageable size with some cute apple fabric found on etsy, but she didn’t stop there. The whole room was given a lighter brighter look which came in at around $1500, including everything from new granite countertops to the $5 “Kitchen” sign from Hobby Lobby.
See more on her blog Pugs Not Drugs. Thanks Julia!

Question about the lamp contest–I’ve seen something hideous at the thrift store–no one in their right mind is going to buy this–can I still enter a picture of it. 🙂

July 28, 2010 at 3:43 AMI love the green! I too have a white kitchen but I need to add some color to it besides beige and white. To me, kitchens should definitely be bright and cheery.

This is so much more cheerful now.
