Centenary Home

Good morning, my lovlelies. I'm assuming this home is located somewhere in Norway as it was featured in Norwegian Bolig Magazine. I might be wrong. Anyway, I do know that it was built in 1910 and even though it has been recently renovated, it maintains its old charm.


Wisteria grows in front of the house. Would love to see this same photograph in spring.





























Love to hear your thoughts on this home.
Have a happy day.

White Kitchens

For those of you who love white kitchens (you talkin' to ME?) have a ball with today's post. They might be hard to keep clean but aren't they worth it?



Those pics on the countertop must be covering sockets. Great idea!



I think the taps are a wee bit too high over the sink. But I like the petite shelves half way up the windows. The little flower pots look lovely there.






A sink in the island is so handy.






Archways look so handsome. I also like the candles hanging above the table.


This kitchen looks nice but having pottery jars with wooden spoons at the back of the cooking range is definitely dangerous. Imagine you are cooking something and you have to reach for a spoon, you have to lean on the stove and your clothes will catch fire. Another setback is that you'll have to wash them all after cooking your french fries! Not a good idea.


Love this island with the marble top. Remember to leave enough room for your legs under the top, otherwise you'll have to sit sideways!


Two islands? If you have the space, why not?





I like this kitchen very much. I like the sign that says cuisine.

Having a blackboard in a kitchen is practical and looks nice. But imagine the length of the chalk you'll need if you want to write at the top of this one! Or, you'll have to stand on that stool and you might fall. If you write something at the bottom where you can easily reach it is bound to be erased by the splashes when you do the dishes. Oh, I seem to be so negative today!
