Thanks. It's a very calm space and I love being there. It just makes the whole house so livable, which is important in a little house. I still have all sorts of projects to do, but they are much smaller in scope and I'll do them over time. I still have no furniture, but that'll come too, in time.
Shiloh likes it because he can see out the back window (lots of doggy-nose marks to clean) and he can see where I am no matter where I am. Sheepdogs and open floorplans are a good combo.

Tulip - it looks great! Now you need a big gift cerificate to Ikea, Pier One, Cost Plus World Market.... or something for furniture. I see Shiloh posing in one of the photos, waiting for a bone to appear from the kitchen I suppose.
Happy new home!!!

Tell me about it! I've been coveting the Risom chair for years. Now I just looked (thanks to your post) and they're on sale. I STILL can't justify it! I'm planning a trip to Spain, so it will have to wait, probably.....forever Originally Posted by tulip

Tulip, I love how much light there is throughout your kitchen. The remodel really helped to open up the space. So gorgeous! So what culinary delights are you going to create for us?

Just a quick update.
Painted the kitchen, but still need to do the glass tile backsplash. Got rugs, which inspired the paint color. A floating shelf...And a sofa!
I've been here a year; this is still a work in progress...
