Our Kitchen Part 4

I wanted to share these beautiful shallow bowls I just got at the thrift store.


I love brown and white transferware and these bowls only cost $1.50 for both!








As I was taking these pictures I realized I have yet to show you the other end of our kitchen. With all the sunshine coming in I thought what better day to do so?




The upper cabinet pictured is one of the cabinets we got from my parents when they got new ones. They were solid wood doors but my mom had my dad put the glass in them years ago so that she could see all of her dishes. As a young girl I never would have known that some day I would be looking at my very own dishes through those doors.


Neal built the open shelving next to it for all of our many white bowls (what can I say? I love white bowls).



The bread box holds all of my baking supplies and cake/cookie decorating items. The old beverages crate holds our snack foods and keeps them out of sight. The things I use daily I keep right on the counter, if they are pretty that is.




On the days that it hasn't been nice enough to work outside I have been busy getting things ready for our Tag Sale on May 11th. I have been going through all of my cupboards and bins in the attic and I have SO much stuff that I am hoping to sell! The Tag Sale will be May 11th at Stewart Hall (218 Mercer St. Harmony PA 16037) in Harmony PA starting at 9 AM. 


Hope you enjoyed the last part of our kitchen, have a great day!

    I recently stumbled upon your blog and I totally fell in love, your style is by far the most (farmhouse looking) I have seen!! I absolutely love your home and are a wee bit jealous of your farmhouse that I so long for!!! I look forward to seeing all your posts!!

    I also just recently found your blog and have to agree with the posters above. I love the simplicity of your style. I like how you use the vintage finds to hide everyday items.

    Those bowls were quite the find. Our thrift stores have really gotten unreasonable in their pricing lately.

    Simply beautiful! A nice drool while eating breakfast! I just have to ask - where did you get the jars on your counter with the white lids on them? Love them. Susan

    Your kitchen has so much charm- I love it! Neal did a great job on the open shelving and I really admire your collection of bowls. The transfer ware ones were a great find and price as well.
