I recently did a kitchen remodel in my little house in Tulsa. It hadn't been remodeled in at least 50 years. My hats off to all the designers and decorators out there. What a hard job you have. Though I have been subscribing to all the design and decorating magazines for about 40 years, (I was only 2 when I started), choosing colors, tiles, appliances, lighting and even hinges and floor registers is stressful to me. And, doing it from long distance at the farm made it even harder. And, on a budget, I might add. My head was swimming to put it nicely.
I do love it now. I bought this box of Parisian dishware two years ago; it has Saint Germain des Pres printed on the side (which is where we stayed last time in Paris), but I really didn't have anywhere to put them. They remained closeted. After the remodel, the dishes finally found a new home on a little white cafe table under a window.
I have told my husband he can't use them. In fact, I wasn't happy when I went up this past weekend and saw his coffee machine out on top of the counter. Oh well...
