Looks great Michelle!! I like what you've done with your counter space. :)
Hi Michelle, your kitchen looks so pretty, amazing how paint can change the whole look of a room! The dresser looks great in there too and I love your doggy pictures with their bones in the canister bleow them (:
Hugs~Kelly
oh girl, how pretty is that???? I love the way it looks now. You must be so excited....and you got it put back together for Christmas! Yay!
Suzanne
Oh you truly have it going on! I am so jealous of all your lovely jars and bits so purposely sitting there with spoons and sugar etc. Right! You are my insipration and need to get some more STUFF happening in my kitchen. Well done. Love that shabby side table too :)
LOL!!! What timing...I was in my kitchen wondering if I should paint my kitchen white or off white. Your kitchen remodel has been "really" wanting to get away from the green.
Your kitchen is beautiful and serene.
So pretty! Our kitchen is almost entirely white, too, and I love it.
ps. I love your birdie salt and pepper shakers...I have the smae ones from Target!
Love.It. You couldn't have made it any sweeter, any more beautiful. It should be in a magazine spread! Good job and enjoy!

I love your kitchen, our kitchen will be getting a makeover starting next year and I've been going back and forth over painting everything white. But this makes me want to just do it! Your kitchen looks simply amazing!

Michelle I absolutely LOVE it!! The dresser looks great as a counter space. LOVE the white color. All of it just looks fantastic and I can see why you are so excited about it!
You have done an amazing job! I love every little detail. The dresser, the trash bin, the floors....it is all amazing! What great light you have coming in through those windows! I'd be standing in there with a cup of tea soaking up that sunshine!
Love it! Your rooms are always so beautiful!
Gorgeous!!!

It looks lovely!!
I LOVE it!! Your kitchen looks so beautiful, Michelle. :)

Hi Michelle - love what you've done with your kitchen! Everything looks fantastic!
Can I chime in on the Santa ?'s. I remember asking my mom about that - I was about 9 or so. She sat me down and told me that a long time ago Santa used to come to all the houses all over the world until there got to be so many houses with so many kids that it got to be to many for him that he sent a very special note to ALL the moms and dads in the whole world and asked them if they would help him and deliver the toys for the children for him on Christmas Eve. I totally believed her - it made perfect sense to me at the time. Of course, the same story got told to me about the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy and she made me promise to never tell my younger sister until she asked my mom on her own. Worked for me and I thought (still think) it is the sweetest story.
Maybe you can somehow use a story like that? Whatever you do I hope you and your family have a great holiday!
Oh... The kitchen is adorable. If I had such a kitchen I would learn to cook.
Thanks for sharing. Have a great Sunday.

Your kitchen is BEAUTIFUL!! I absolutely love it! I love the white with the wood beadboard. Everything looks great!!
So beautiful, Michelle. So clean, crisp and completely elegant. Great job!!
Merry Christmas,
Mary Lou
Very pretty.
Michelle, I really like how you used the dresser as an island. The white on white and chippiness is simply elegant to me. You should be very proud of what you have accomplished. I straddle so many different styles. This so-called shabby look is a favorite of mine, but I only have a snippet of this style in a guest bedroom. Your room is just amazing and I always enjoy visiting your site to see what new things you've implemented.
Merry, Merry!

I am in awe. I saw the before and that was great, but now. It is far more perfect. I love it!
Thanks for visiting today too!
It is lovely!! How is it possible that I was not a follower of your blog already? I just remedied that. I absolutely love the choices you made in your kitchen to make it personal and give it a history and soul. Come visit me when you have the chance.
So incredibly gorgeous!!! I love the dresser that you used for an island! How creative! I never would have thought of that but it works so wonderfully. Your kitchen should be in a magazine!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Did I tell you that I LOVE it??? Soo fresh..reminds me of a sweet french kitchen in the country. What white did you use? Have a fab and merry christmas!~ cherry
Hi Michelle,
