Kelly over at Kelly's Korner is hosting a fun Friday blog thing called Show Us Where You Live Friday! I love seeing other people's homes and how they decorate so this is right up my alley! Today's edition is the Kitchen.
I'll start off by saying, I don't love my kitchen. We bought our house last July and there is still a lot of stuff I would love to do to update it (it's about 20 years old) and one of my dreams is a kitchen redo. I love the amount of space I have, I just don't love the quality of my cabinets or my countertops, or the yellow walls. One day. Maybe.
Okay, so here are the pics. We just happened to be hosting a party for our Sunday School class tonight so my kitchen was all nice and clean:)
entry off the garage where all our bag and junk go
blue plates from my grandmother
elephant tray we received as a wedding gift...we are Alabama fans after all!
think I need to clean out my pantry...yikes!
and don't ask me why there is a bottle of pledge wood floor cleaner in the pantry...I am the mom of 3 small children so sometimes I put things places they don't really belong
my kitchen table does not normally look like this, but I had it decorated a little bit for our party
the television in the kitchen is a lifesaver sometimes! ignore ellie kate's flonase sitting out on the counter (if I put it up, I forget to give it to her)...and ignore our junky fridge:)
I really like the tile backsplash, I just don't think it stands out enough with the boring cabinets and countertops
and finally, our brick floor that everyone raves about when they walk in the kitchen...it is nice to look at, but let's just say, I need to see a foot doctor after living here for less than a year!
Hope you enjoyed your tour of my kitchen!

Can you tell me more about your brick floor? Are they pavers? Did you lay them individually or did they come in sheets? I am very interested. Thanks....love your blog!

I love finding other Tuscaloosa people...how exciting! The candles are called Circle E Candles. I got mine at Forget Me Nots in Northport, but I know you can get them on ebay too (I'm not sure if they are any cheaper though). I love your Arthur Court plate too :)
