[NOTE: My following wish is a true wish but I'm going to claim another one and explore the topic of transformation in another post. - 4/9/09]
Jamie's question today for Wishcasting Wednesdays has me perplexed.
What do you wish to transform?
Hmmm. What WOULDN'T I like to transform right now? My figure, my yard, a certain relationship... Wait, I DO know what I'd like to transform! My kitchen!!
Let me give you the picture (I'd post one but then I'd have to do the dishes):
Our stove/microwave combo is I'm sure one of the first models ever made. The fan is basically a whole in the kitchen ceiling rimmed in silver. There's a pretty cool cut-out oval shape in the ceiling but it's trimmed in a faded border of peaches, leaves and butterflies (not the pretty you're imagining). The maple cabinets show an awesome grain but the hardware is dated and the overall look is tired and 1950s.
I don't know what the original owners were thinking but they put in a white tiled floor. White! Besides being incredibly cold on the feet, it shows every little speck of dirt and I end up getting on my hands and knees to wipe it down more often than I'd like. I'm not EVEN going to get into the curtain situation!
It might not sound too terrible but it drives me crazy and if we ever have the funds to do a remodel, that is where I'd start.
I wish to transform our oft used and outdated kitchen!

ReplyDeletemy best wishes for a wonderful kitchen in accordance to your wish.
Thank you. I just didn't have the energy to delve into something more meaningful. An updated, more cheery kitchen would definitely brighten up our living space and also our spirits! :)

ReplyDeleteI so relate - as my pink tile disappears and our grotty vent is replaced. May your kitchen transformation happen quickly, easily and beautifully!

ReplyDeleteOh spring does that to me.....I think paint and stain and change!
ReplyDeleteOf course, 'thinking' doesn't actually get it done.
Drat.
I do wish for you...and if there's a bit of that wish left over--the ceiling in our kitchen could stand to be painted.
