Kitchen ~ Before & Middle

About 2 months ago, I found a wonderful house painter through a friend. He's much in demand {the good ones always are} so I quickly got myself on his list. I'm very happy to report his team started yesterday morning and they've already made significant progress on the 1st floor. Here's one view of the kitchen + mudroom before, and in progress. All very exciting.

Cupcake Chair

Ever found a lovely piece of furniture that reminded you of a delicious morsel of food?

Call me crazy, but as soon as I saw these cupcakes from Australia's Hello Naomi on Flickr, I thought of my favorite 1930's Frances Elkins 'loop' chair as interpreted by Downtown. This amazing chair would be even more cupcake-like painted Pleasant Pink (it can be customized in any Benjamin Moore color).

Another decor/food fetish confirmed.
