This is a picture of my kitchen after the cabinets were finally painted white and the new hardware was put on but the wainscoting wasn't put up yet and the walls weren't painted the new teal color.

 This is just a idea I'm kicking around about doing in my kitchen...a shelf above the kitchen window.  I've got plenty of room and I'm putting one below it too since I don't have a window sill.

This is a REALLY old picture of my kitchen after I'd painted the cabinets the first time and still had my old stove (my cat decided she liked the pilot light to keep herself warm) and the cabinets were cream colored with brass knobs and handles and the walls were some sort of green color...
