Kitchen Makeover

My dream has come true.  We have come down to Cornwall to make-over a holiday home and I cannot wait to see the finished result.  We have brought Aron and Elliot with us (our 2 extremely hard working apprentices)  and our favourite people Emma and Pete have also come down to stay.  Such a great week!  We are working hard but it doesn't really feel like work... we are painting until the early hours of the mornng then starting again, still in our pyjamas the next day...

We have started in the kitchen. This is the room that you walk into through the front door so it needs to have the wow factor, so people are excited about their holiday before it's even started!  It's a good sized room with orange under the dado rail, an old pine table with new pine chairs, there is a lot of orange going on this room.  We have painted the table base and the chairs to match so they look more like a set rather than antique table and new chairs.  We have added a dresser top to the wall with some vintage blue plates and of course bunting!  Everyone said no to the bunting but I put my foot down, it just wouldn't be right without the bunting!  The bottom of the wall is now a lovely beachy blue.

I am so pleased with the result of this room!  It feels bigger and more homely and I am loving the red, white and blue theme...
