Monet and Me



decided to give the kitchen a much needed facelift. Monet poses at the kitchen sink showing off the valance from the curtain set that had been in the Young One's bedroom. The valance also had a set of swags, but I didn't like the way they looked in the kitchen window.


The real makeover was changing out the old cabinet and drawer pulls. I found these funky, mismatched, ceramic pulls on Amazon. They didn't have any sort of drawer pull to go with them but the knobs work just as easily for a drawer pull.

  1. I like the drawer pulls. I need to do something 'creative' in our kitchen. Just scrubbing it would be a good start!

  2. Those are fun new knobs for your draws. I should update mine as they are just black. :) Have a super day and enjoy this gorgeous weather.

    1. That's such a good feeling to see everything neat and tidy. And then you get to make a mess all over again!

  4. I LOVE ceramic pulls like this! When we were in India over 10 years ago, there were loads of them for VERY little money, but I was too stupid to buy any. (Oh no, of course I was too rational to buy something that I would then have to lug around without actually NEEDING it 😜😉)
    You told me "The closest Bubba Gump Restaurant to me is in New York." - We went there too - yo will see it 😊...
    All the best and happy T-Day, Traude

    1. New York City is 170 miles (273.5K) from me. I won't be there any time soon.

    1. They are fun. A real 180 for me where I always had traditional, matching themes. The kitchen was fruit. The old knobs and pulls were apples, pears, peaches.
