We rent we don't own. Hence the lack of curtains mentioned in this
post. And as I said the other day, our house was built in the 1920s. I love so many of the charming details. The arched doorways, the hardwoods and the amazing
chandeliers. But what I heart most is our kitchen! It is so retro. Even down to the ironing board that comes out of the wall. I don't iron very much but I crack up every time my hubby asks me to iron one of his shirts because I am in the kitchen...ironing! So Betty Draper of me. {Well minus the cigarette.}
Here is a little peek into our kitchen. These pictures are from when we first moved in because according to the Mr. he wanted to clean before I took recent photos. Don't let me stop you! It still looks pretty much the same only a few tweaks here and there.

This is the brand of sink we have! How great is that-Feel like a Beauty Queen while you wash dishes!! |
However before I even knew we were gonna live here I had registered for this must have kitchen appliance in Buttercup. Best part is-I got it! My bridesmaids are all Grammy award winning Rockstars because they got it for me!
It fits the retro "Beauty Queen" kitchen perfectly. I am also a little jealous of this designer kitchen i found on
House Beautiful.
The floor, the counter tops, the island, the double sinks, the ceiling, those light fixtures...need I say more. Insane. At least we do have the same kitchen aid!
Maybe I could
redesign that retro kitchen into a lovely little bridal shower invite! I tried to mimic my own kitchen floor and replicate the "Beauty Queen" font the best I could.
If I was invited and money was no option, I would probably buy the bride this little number in Ice.
Oh well money does seem to be an option and my day job is calling.
