~~~Some Vignettes Around the House~~~

I have been moving things around and creating some new vignettes. I have CABIN FEVER so bad so have been "putzing". Do you all do that? I thought I would share some of what I did today. This first shot is the credenza in the foyer hallway. I love the 2 saki jars and especially the guy carrying the buckets.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGdeQzZgs1OLyQRp6BTbc_JmSce-UUZLfiyoEPF5dHehu4kX7eIRrs30FY-6WVC_RfKyJ7zjFIZ3YubO30pFtGJ-9M-mM-NaPlSbrgvCQpGiTlTLn5oIyrdIk09QT51hfmFeEyyQ8o_GM/s1600/IMG_1796.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGdeQzZgs1OLyQRp6BTbc_JmSce-UUZLfiyoEPF5dHehu4kX7eIRrs30FY-6WVC_RfKyJ7zjFIZ3YubO30pFtGJ-9M-mM-NaPlSbrgvCQpGiTlTLn5oIyrdIk09QT51hfmFeEyyQ8o_GM/s1600/IMG_1796.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> Next to the credenza is a real plant on the right and a faux fern on the left. Real ferns are just too darn messy in the house, to me.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr2_8zw45RgpUI_su9J5Dc6XKHno6bOo4fw0GTgXh8sEKceY38RFr52PcD6Rp5SxUIlgnSH_oiLCUuapOGVfLFb29v5sInQLbVEicmLPqbRloCHflWgt6BYvF3XXvIUE2WDWT448k6hm4/s1600/IMG_1797.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr2_8zw45RgpUI_su9J5Dc6XKHno6bOo4fw0GTgXh8sEKceY38RFr52PcD6Rp5SxUIlgnSH_oiLCUuapOGVfLFb29v5sInQLbVEicmLPqbRloCHflWgt6BYvF3XXvIUE2WDWT448k6hm4/s1600/IMG_1797.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> This is what is on the coffee table for now.

Today is my hubby's birthday! I am finally ready to reveal my new kitchen. As I said before, the kitchen, morning room and great room are all one big space. So here we go. This picture above is the cooktop wall. The piece behind the cooktop is made of iron so safe to be behind the stove. Below we are going to the right and starting to look toward the great room.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3mem6JFh-cRCSSq1LrYELTcQu3UXwDUMRA29qNcuJRWIF6TVMunymDW-Rk4UYUrGP1ZgGd-wQ0Lm-EzyBJYdpLLryBUVSQ2bupKMqsHebcpTZjxHrWffGS0qPpcuG8CeUu2he8Dqfwxxq/s1600/10-20-12+012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3mem6JFh-cRCSSq1LrYELTcQu3UXwDUMRA29qNcuJRWIF6TVMunymDW-Rk4UYUrGP1ZgGd-wQ0Lm-EzyBJYdpLLryBUVSQ2bupKMqsHebcpTZjxHrWffGS0qPpcuG8CeUu2he8Dqfwxxq/s640/10-20-12+012.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> Continuing to the right is the sink and breakfast bar. We are looking into the great room. I LOOOOOVE this open space!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj9RvGjE7OErvwPWnC6FPO4V4mC-GczI4vTFyh9dUBiO6BQ8O0Ln83TXcyvXK4kKMMDK5GOUuQ2l9t7uBF9oRUI7aMK44XhFBVmoIYc7sPknnPe9LLNWRJWacbQQsHT5Yw9Vn5jBTDLsUs/s1600/10-20-12+013.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj9RvGjE7OErvwPWnC6FPO4V4mC-GczI4vTFyh9dUBiO6BQ8O0Ln83TXcyvXK4kKMMDK5GOUuQ2l9t7uBF9oRUI7aMK44XhFBVmoIYc7sPknnPe9LLNWRJWacbQQsHT5Yw9Vn5jBTDLsUs/s640/10-20-12+013.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> Joe and I sit here for some meals but the TV is too small so sometimes we eat at the table too.
