you can't miss this! tag sale boutique~Take a looksie!

As I took the day off from painting, I was able to sneak away between church and a soccer game to this beautiful tag sale boutique created by 2 wonderful sisters.  Purchase their cookbook by clicking here-cookbook.  The "Two Sisters Boutique" was a tag sale by invitation only and displayed the most exquisite items.  It was a wonderful time to chit chat about design and creating.  I'm very lucky to live so close and share my love of decorating with Kathy and Nancy.

In a nutshell, it's all about using what you have and display it in a way that makes you feel beautiful! ;)Alyssa

I did some more work today...paint, paint and more paint.  But, we're making progress, folks!  Of course, I had to decorate along the way...

I bought this at a boutique sale today.  More about that later! It reminded me of pages from my Nana's cookbooks.

                            I am loving my little New England Kitchen!

Thanks for sharing this transformation with me ;)Alyssa

it's coming together...

I'm very excited!  The painting is coming together and it looks so clean and fresh and I LOVE it! Look at the difference between the brown cabinet (original color) and the new paint.  I just can't believe the difference.  Now, those tiles need to be removed too.  Hmmm.....Sounds like another project to me.  I need to focus on one thing at a time, (reminder to self). ;)

New items will be added above for a whole new look, so disregard the beautiful clutter on the top counter above!

About the paint:  The color is Bay Fog and it is awesome!  It's by Kilz and I'm using Purdy brand brushes.  With one coat of primer and 2 coats of Kilz, just to make sure, my kitchen is transforming sloooowly, but surely!
