Sweet Pea and Clover mini kitchen

I want to thank all my new followers for visiting me and leaving such heartfelt comments and sweetness.  I love hearing from all of you!

Today I got the brilliant (okay, I think it's brilliant) idea to make little valance boxes for the windows...adding more pink and giving the kitchen more texture and detail.
Happy Dance as always....


Pleased as punch, I am! 

 Speaking of punch....have a little cup, it's sitting on the hutch across the room.  Sip as you peruse the newest additions to Sweet Pea and Clover.

 If you like, there is and abundance of food for the taking....no one goes hungry in MY kitchen....help yourselves...it's YUMMY!  




Have a slice of chocolate cake, if you like too.



I've had this little brown basket for ever....well, it was brown until I got a hold of the paint brush and gave it a quick white wash....much more Shabby Chic, don't you think?  Perfect for the silverware.





The little chair needed a sweet little skirt....done!




A back splash seemed needed to give this area a bit more interest.... silver paper seemed the answer.




So, I added the cute little valances...painted the basket for silverware.... a back splash...a skirt for the chair.....and tried to pull the entire kitchen together for a photo shoot. 
Hope you enjoyed....

It's such a pleasure sharing all my decorating, creating and mini making with all my blog friends.

Hope it inspires you to create....
as you have all inspired me so much.

    1. Jennifer... You always stop by for a visit...I love that! Did you dig out and old basket and slap some white wash on it? Amazing what paint will do. Isn't it great getting inspiration from blogging friends? I'm thinking...just thinking now, that I'm going to make a PINKY WINK kitchen...oh no, blue one isn't enough. LOL
      Have a fun mini making weekend.

    1. Margie..thanks so much for stopping in for a visit and kind words. I've had those little pink dishes for a number of years now...an yeah, they were a bit pricey back then. I HAD to have them after looking for a long long time, they are certainly a favorite of mine.

    1. Hello.... I got the dishes quiet a few years ago at a Miniature show...don't have a clue where you could find them now. They are so thin and delicate..I love them.
      Thanks for stopping by and all your kind words.
