I’ve got a thing for my kitchen…we’re in a relationship, actually. She treats me well and I like to shower her with gifts to show my appreciation. I also rent a house and let’s just say this 1940s darling is charming, but girl’s gotta get a design update up in this place! Holler at me tiny galley!
When you can’t demo – you make magic with tea towels, colorful accessories and repeat this beauty routine as much as you need to. You know, just to get you through that upcoming Thanksgiving Dinner and what not.
As we near the holiday rush and rev up cooking actions to a full tilt boogie, I want to show my hard working and petite cucina that I really do love her. That I notice, despite the oven’s lack of internal real estate, it is still powerful…and of even temper(ature). That I admire, despite the counter-less space, that she boasts some seriously deep cupboards. And for me? Well I like a bit of accessorizing myself, so that cutie little metallic heart clutch is for me and the rest we will enjoy together.
Kitchen, you are a quirky broad…but I love you. Forever yours…until I move out.{top} Metallic Heart Clutch By Ban.do // {one} Geometric Heart Tea Towel By Sarah&Yvette // {two} Vintage Kronjyden Nissen Stoneware // {three} Heart Warmer Hot Water Bottle By The Spoon Sisters // {four} Heart Tray Designed By Graziela Preiser // {five} Vintage Czech Creamer With Folk Couple // {six} Heart Shaped Bamboo Spoon // {seven} Heart Shaped Fondue Pot // {eight} Tiny Heart Teapot
Who says hearts should be saved for Valentine’s Day? Let’s fall in love together!

It is a relationship, especially when you’re in a kitchen that’s *ahem* not fully yours to customize (that’s my current relationship, at least!). You both accept that you have your flaws and find a way to make the best of it and create memorable meals as a team.

Same here!! And that is why I spent my entire Sunday (both day and night) cleaning, organizing and rearranging every little tiny piece of space in my kitchen. I’m always buying the kitchen new gifts and the best are all those thrift store vintage finds. I’m so in love. It’s the very first one of my very own and that alone makes all the difference in the world no matter how tiny, how much my fridge wants to freeze the food in the fridge, or even the fact that if I have the A/C on and try to brew tea simultaneously.. the power goes out. I make adjustments, and it’s okay because at the end of the day I have my very own kitchen so I lovingly fill the ice trays and wipe down the sink and swoon over my kitchen every night before I turn out the lights and say goodnight.
