Summer Changes in the Breakfast Room

I am always changing the hutch in the breakfast room, it seems. I love to change things seasonally but also to mix things up a bit!!! I also change the 2 shelving things (that are actually plant stands). I got them MANY years ago and now they live in the breakfast room. Here is what we have right now!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-xFCGrlhg3UPZrqqATj0Zg5ApTRBx_443KciyAZ8E5k7VV7XE__5FYcwa35pJJPPkLxM6JnJq8qvdc0c_-Uzbzbw-mgw2GvsPWXL5wtcr8UYSsMtociaJAQMW9cDVSS-5nPO-UQRfAkA/s1600/IMG_0203.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-xFCGrlhg3UPZrqqATj0Zg5ApTRBx_443KciyAZ8E5k7VV7XE__5FYcwa35pJJPPkLxM6JnJq8qvdc0c_-Uzbzbw-mgw2GvsPWXL5wtcr8UYSsMtociaJAQMW9cDVSS-5nPO-UQRfAkA/s1600/IMG_0203.JPG" width="426" /></a></div> Since we have been gardening outside ALOT, I am using alot of gardening elements in this room for now.  Birdhouses, gardening implements, birds etc.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRiPazf8dhKKUYSJXraSELaFx9ycHC0_rDQKUU3zrDnKZF8m82FCQYvPMR-BwMWzQCOytUtvAksgFq9hr4VQn9nt1gZMwlJW7nsz64sOEJWcNxjIOik1lLOo_R_evkoN42YWy-ajZkyzs/s1600/IMG_0204.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRiPazf8dhKKUYSJXraSELaFx9ycHC0_rDQKUU3zrDnKZF8m82FCQYvPMR-BwMWzQCOytUtvAksgFq9hr4VQn9nt1gZMwlJW7nsz64sOEJWcNxjIOik1lLOo_R_evkoN42YWy-ajZkyzs/s1600/IMG_0204.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> My birdhouse lamp is one of my favorites.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAaox0602wZYTGNvgYq2cil77pFtEgXT63fv2-dyYW6xi6e6Uz5CSI33z79lpyvuKPBAPb-weLVyq0GrwNEdLfmz_v_Kf6CEPn8TUBnTJp10jMoFT8E4YwKp4WZRzj52gBXdNHNhyB2Ds/s1600/IMG_0205.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAaox0602wZYTGNvgYq2cil77pFtEgXT63fv2-dyYW6xi6e6Uz5CSI33z79lpyvuKPBAPb-weLVyq0GrwNEdLfmz_v_Kf6CEPn8TUBnTJp10jMoFT8E4YwKp4WZRzj52gBXdNHNhyB2Ds/s1600/IMG_0205.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSf2R3rDi55zyBtoDzbpzhLEiOxbWXquHeLyBQ7Z___eEIR9J2GuRLto1SEZMRQvzRBFeGY5YWWxJ-DLwiKPMQkpTiBsyy7QYthzEqGnLOInN2HaYTq-5VzC1egGRXCGjM3mhvSNsi-bc/s1600/IMG_0206.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSf2R3rDi55zyBtoDzbpzhLEiOxbWXquHeLyBQ7Z___eEIR9J2GuRLto1SEZMRQvzRBFeGY5YWWxJ-DLwiKPMQkpTiBsyy7QYthzEqGnLOInN2HaYTq-5VzC1egGRXCGjM3mhvSNsi-bc/s1600/IMG_0206.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> For those of you who don't know, Joe built this hutch for me. We saw one very similair up in Lancaster county and he made a sketch on a piece of scrap paper and came home and built it for me!!! He did it like the Amish do: you can not see ANY nails or screw.
