But yesterday even though we are working hard on our mudroom, I felt this urge to deep clean the kitchen. I cleaned it inside and out and ceiling to floor....it felt wonderful!! So since my kitchen was all spiffed up I thought I would give you a peek.....
I have loved this diving pig picture for years, he's the focal point of my kitchen. Looking at him yesterday while it's freezing outside, I thought of warm summer days and cool ponds. I love the greens in this picture. Green as naturally become my accent color in my decor, maybe one day I'll commit to something bold! I have plants throughout my home and during these cold months I love caring for them until I can go outside and dig in the dirt!
We still have my small list of things we need to finish like painting one last drawer and tiling the back splash. I haven't focused on decorating too much expect for hanging my piggy picture. But yesterday after cleaning I treated myself to a DIY project and hung a couple of plates......
The greens and the touch of black in the plates matched my picture perfectly.
Instead of buying a plate hanger I DIY 'ed it with wire and hot glue.
I've been wanting to hang my recycling bag up for quite some time. I like not having a huge bulky bin of recycling cluttering my kitchen, so I picked this cute little hobby lobby bag to do my recycling. You could say I'm anti having stuff on my floors since my trash can is under my sink too. So having my recycling bag up was a must!
I got this brass hook from my grandpas garage sale. I empty this bag a couple times a week or more if needed.
I put strawberries, spinach, pineapple, mango, banana, and blueberries in the bags. Then when ready to make I add some yogurt and sometimes coconut oil. I clean and reuse the bags many times.
Fighting cabin fever can be a challenge, it helps me to keep my home nice and clean with plants and fresh fruits and veggies around! Taking a trip to the beach would be helpful too:)
Is there anything you do to keep your spirits warm during the winter months?
