Kitchen Bits

Hi. I'm excited-we finally are getting some fall weather. Cool mornings and nights. Yeah! Today I thought I'd share some random kitchen pictures. I've been trying to go more neutral in my decor, so I can add in pops of color. I've also been trying to add some farmhouse touches to the kitchen. I found this cute Yeast box while antiquing. It works perfectly for my olive oil, salt and pepper by the stove.

 This is an old wood puzzle piece, that has magnets on the back. I added it to the fridge, for a pop of orange in the fall.

I love this caddy. It serves 2 purposes. One, the obvious-holding napkins and flatware. Two -it serves as a doggie blockade from the window seat, that's right next to the counter. One day, Bowie decided he could make that jump, and I found him checking out my counter. I can't have the little guy doing that. Anyway, it works. No more dog on counter.

 Last, I found this pig cutting board, that had already been chalk painted. I decided to do something with it.

 Drilled a hole, and added a battery clock kit. By the way, I painted the hands white, because all they had was brass.

 I may tweak the numbers a little, I will show it to you next time, when it's hung above the door.

 Lastly, I tore apart a cutter quilt, and made a few zipper bags out of the hand sewn squares. I love reusing old stuff, and making it into something new. I'll be adding these to my Etsy shop soon.

Lot's of randomness going on here. I'm enjoying the weather so much. Hope your week turns out to be a great one.
