Confession: I am a neat-nic, a tidy freak, a tad compulsive ….. those glass-half-empty types would say compulsive. I am especially this way about my house and I am especially this way about my kitchen!
simple algebra: 1 neurotic purlingswine + 1 kitchen turned upside down = X
I have been non-stop working on this project since Friday. Up and at it by 7 am and cleaning brushes etc at 7 pm. I am happy to report that it is finished and it looks terrific! My back is sore, my hands are swollen but my kitchen is clean, organized and yellow!!
Without further ado, I present the kitchen (warning: lots of photos since I know we all like to see each other’s houses!)
purlingswine 
annie the color is wonderful those guys at the paint store could give claire a run for her money with a color wheel
I grew up with yellow kitchens. They are bright and happy places. Nice job. Now go knit and rest!
Oh, that’s so much fun! It looks very bright and fresh (and neat) — great job! I really enjoyed the tour, eyeing up your collections and whatnot. Wonderful stuff (wouldn’t mind a closer look at the hutch — is that some Van Briggle, Roseville, Weller on the right???). ; )
WOW! It looks so beautiful Ann! I love Yellow! Can’t remember what color it used to be? But your house makes me want to curl up with knitting needles and a hot cup of coco!! xox
It really looks great Ann. I need to get the chips off my wall and get my butt to True Value. I love those guys.
Well, you will not be seeing pictures of the inside of my pigsty, but if you feel like boggling your meticulous mind, you can always come to Colorado and clean my house.
That’s one lovely kitchen, Ann. Very, very homey. Can I move in with you?
BEAUTIFUL! I, too, have always loved yellow in the kitchen. You must be a chip off this old block.
Thank goodness I am not the only neat-nic, tidy freak in the ring. (I am spring cleaning, scrubbing walls as I type) Your my hero, I hate to paint and it looks great!
I have the same kitchen chairs also…do I know you?? : )
After a computer hiatus, I’m back. I missed you!! The kitchen looks awesome. I feel like it is a “where’s waldo” because I spotted Luci in two of the photos. Camera hog perhaps?? The Grrr camera shy?
Love the kitchen! It looks like a wonderful place to sit down and have a family meal. I only wish mine was half that big! Kudos on the color choice – I think it looks great.
