My new kitchen

As you might know, (See this post.) I have been moving from my partner and into my own house this summer.

Most of the time has gone to renovate the kitchen.

I felt that I really needed to get this done at once, since the kitchen is the most important room for me. The heart of the house. And a house without a heart feels strange and empty.

It's been a tricky job for me to get it all done. I was able to do a lot on my own, but have also been in need of much help for the biggest tasks. There've been family and friends here to help me. Thank you all!

This is what it looks like now. I thought I could do without a kitchen table, but have come to the conclusion that I need a small one. Perhaps painted green? I am sick of all the shopping and all the waste from the packaging. So I have decided not to buy more new things, only old furniture. -Which means I have to wait for the fleamarket season starts...

I'm a little unsure of how the curtains turned out. I had some vintage bedlinen left and wanted to use it. But the pieces were so small. So I had to add some lace I have inherited. -Sewn onto a piece of white fabric. But curtains are easy to change. And I like the sunny feeling they add. For now.

The small inhabitants of the house also need a place to cook/eat.

(The weird placement of the cooking books is to hide the hole in the wall after the

old stove I had to throw out.)
