It's been awhile since I've linked up with the Share Our Lives bloggers. However, this month's topic is "favourite room in our house" and I thought I would use this as an opportunity to share some post-renovation pictures. The Share Our Lives bloggers are Dara, Joanne, Adrienne, and Jen. (Click on each name to go their blogs.)
I'm cheating a bit here because honestly, right now, my "favourite room" is our deck! Can a "deck" be a "room"?!?!? It's where I spend the bulk of my time when I'm at home these days, moving my chairs around to stay in the shade. In fact, I'm writing this post on the deck, after we ate supper on the deck!
Just a few photos of "deck life."
My second favourite room, and it's an actual room this time, is our kitchen. I fell in love with the variety of tile in Portugal when we visited there last summer, and it inspired this room for sure!
The window in the middle of this picture is where the stove used to sit. I love having it fully uncovered!
We went with two different coloured cabinets, which I love, and then our back splash is a little wild, just like the tiles in Portugal. The countertops are white with some light flecks in them.
This is my favourite corner in our kitchen with my mug cupboard, the glass doors so you can see my Fiestaware, and our new coffeemaker.
A closer up view of our glass cupboards and the back splash.
A closeup view of the two windows. My dad made all the stained glass and I love it.
I also wanted to give a shout out to our powder room. It is a little narrow space, but I absolutely love it.
My mom and dad put the cabinet together when they were here in June and hung the artwork above the toilet. The mirror is one we bought for Rachel at Target and she didn't want it in her new room. I thought it added a touch of whimsy to this bathroom.
Again, the flooring was inspired by the tiles in Portugal and the bathroom colour was picked to match the blue in the tiles. This room is a little wild but I really love it!
So those are some of my favourite spaces in our house, thus far. I haven't figured out my favourite winter space yet, but I'm sure I'll discover that in the coming months! I'm guessing it won't be the deck! Hahaha!What's your favourite room in your house?
So many people said their porch or deck. I knew if you linked up you would too- love it! Thanks for sharing your new spaces too- I love all of your paint colors- it must be so exciting and it must feel like a brand new house!
ReplyDeleteYou are not the only one who said an outdoor space!
ReplyDeleteI love the tile in your kitchen, the color of your cabinets, your mug cupboard, and your Fiestaware! I also collect Fiestaware!
