The Kitchen (Part 2) and an announcement!

Hi everyone!  I shared my kitchen re-do after Christmas and today I would like to share (part 2) of the kitchen.  You can see (part 1) here. I decided to make a few minor changes.  Sometimes just a tweak here and there can make all the difference.

I had two shelves and an iron embellishment above the mirror, but grew tired of that look.  (This is what it used to look like.) 

So, I took two smaller shelves and a Chateau sign and hung those in their place.  I added the mirror over Christmas and hung a wreath on the mirror using a Command Hook.  I love the reflective detail with the mirror.  It really brightens-up the kitchen.

I love lamps in the kitchen.  It adds a lot of warmth and coziness to the space.

The kitchen would not be complete without a Rooster. ;)

Here is one more look at the newly "tweaked" wall.

Below is a desk area in the kitchen.  This is where the kids play on their laptop!

Here is a shelf I re-decorated.

I love decorating the shelves in this cabinet.  It's fun to changes things out with the seasons.

Here is a floral arrangement I added to one of the shelves.

Below is the Butler's Pantry

I felt this area needed a little accessorizing.

I added a few things.  I added these two jugs that I purchased from Ross last week, and I added a Rooster to the wire cloche.

I love my Roo's!

So, that's it for the kitchen.  The kitchen is ALWAYS changing.  I can't help myself. ;)

Ok, now onto the a n n o u n c e m e n t.

I will be starting the first ever...

WATER DIET BLOG PARTY 

...this Friday!!  

I will open the party up Thursday evening.  There seemed to be a lot of interest, so I will go ahead and set it up.  You don't have to be on a diet to participate.  This party will be all about promoting and sharing "healthy" recipes, fitness tips, progress reports, stats, or pictures.  

Having a support system whether you're on a diet, or not is so important, so let's inspire each other to eat healthy, stay hydrated, and exercise.  Spring and summer is just around the corner, so there is no better time like the present. I hope you'll join me, so get your posts ready for Friday and for those of you who don't have a blog, feel free to post what's working for you.  The details of the party are here.

Thanks for stopping by! xo ~Liz
