Our Summer Kitchen and Family Room



Yesterday I posted about the new sideboard we made for the kitchen and thought today I would share more photos of it in the overall space as well as a few updated photos of the other side of this room. We spend most of our time in this room and love the open feel of it. You might notice that the drum shade flush mount that was in the kitchen is gone. I moved that to our master bedroom and then used this little light that I plan on hanging in our back hall as a temporary fix. We are planning on having recessed lighting added to the kitchen and living room this summer but until the electrician comes we at least needed some kind of light there.








You can see the rug better in some of these photos. As I mentioned before I liked the way the other rug looked in here much better! However, it was too small (although that was hard to tell in photos) which always drove me crazy. I really love how it looks up in our gray guest room which I think will be it's permanent home and this one is down here just until I can find the right one. Once I do, this one will move upstairs into our office/guest room.

  7. I love what you have done in here. I have a question: Are your cabinets a light grey or white? and.... are the knobs black or bronze? The sideboard is lovely. I like the sides of it a lot! You amaze me!

  11. This is an odd question, but, how do you clear your clippings of outdoor inhabitants (bugs) before you bring them in...? They are so beautiful.

    1. Thanks! I don't really do anything special--just rinse them off in the sink and then quickly check for any noticeable bugs.

  17. It all looks so gorgeous and I agree with the commenters above about your sweet and kind way of sharing all of your sources. I really appreciate that so much!!! I feel bad asking but I LOVE those little green bowls (soup bowls maybe) and don't see a brand/source for those. May I ask where you got them. I thought they might have been the chocolate cups you were referring to but a google search led me to believe that is not what they are. Thanks Jenny.

  20. This is so beautiful and inspiring! What are your room dimensions with the entire space? It is funny I found this because it looks like we have a similar room size and arrangement and I had a very similar plan for furniture layout. I just need decorating guidance. I am curious how I will arrange my living area. I was thinking about a sectional as well but not sure if that would be best for our room. We are still in the fake wood paneling, dark, and old everything stage of buying a fixer-upper. We just had our baby girl and that is our first room we started and still not finished. I am photographing everything and can't wait to share my before and afters.... seriously, CAN'T.WAIT.
