In the kitchen

Hello everyone, and a special warm welcome to new followers and old friends...thank you for joining me on this journey!

So glad you all liked my bicycle, however with the weather we've been having, I haven't been cycling as much as I would have liked!

The focus this week is on kitchens...kitchens are more the hub of the home than ever before, with many people preferring to renovate and expand existing kitchen/dining rooms to make one big open plan family room.

A less formal feel gives a feeling of casual comfort and can immediately put your guests at ease.  It's also a way of getting friends involved and helping out at dinner parties!

I love the informal feel of these kitchens - they are all quite rustic looking, with open shelving and storage on show.  For some this might be clutter, to others just right.  It all depends on how you want to live and what look you are going for.

Have a great week...
