Heart of The Home Party

I am happy to join Shelia today at her site Note Songs for a Kitchen Party.  Be it ever so humble this is my kitchen at home.    

Funny thing was I was getting ready to take these pictures; everyone got up late ( it was Saturday), and everyone's reaction was the same, "Why is the kitchen so clean?" LOL  Trying to depersonalize it a little, I took magnets off of the fridge, calendar down, etc.  

 I really don't have a lot of decorations in this room.  I just mainly come in here to work.

I did bring that pumpkin topiary in and put it on my window ledge above my sink so I could enjoy it.

 I gilded the pumpkins with gold spray paint.  I just sprayed it on and wiped it off real fast and it gilds your pumpkins.  Very easy.

We built an addition two years ago and the best thing about my kitchen is the view.  I can now see the TV and what everyone is up to in the main living area while I'm out cooking.

 This is the kitchen table and the other view out into that living area.  I am looking for new lantern light fixtures in a black or ORB for the kitchen the brass ones need to go.  So it is a work in progress.  Someday it will get a facelift.

 Go over and join Shelia to visit other kitchens.  I am sure I could get some ideas for a makeover for my kitchen at this party!
