Cozy Kitchen Corner

Even the kitchen counters can be decorated. To create cozy kitchen corners, add decorative touches and candles.

I have been trying to figure out where to display my little toy stove. The first spot was not successful. Next to the phone, everyone was dumping paperwork on it. Of course it wasn't me I swear.
I moved my breadbox to another spot and scrubbed down the counters and backsplash. I may change the picture hanging behind the flowers but for now it will stay.


Brought out this green tin that has been hiding in the laundry room.



Always a candle burning in my kitchen. I stock up when I find them on clearance.



In the evening after dinner, kitchen all scrubbed and counters straightened until the next day when life begins again.

  3. I too always light a candle after the kitchen is cleaned up. I hate the lingering of food smell.

  8. That looks like the PERFECT spot for that sweet little stove. The warmth of the candle in front of it is just perfect. I love the green with it too. I'm just a big fan of red and green even when it's not Christmas. I like what you say about the kitchen all cleaned up until another day.

  16. I have one of those Little Chef toy stoves. It's put away somewhere, but I'm thinking I should get it out to be part of the kitchen decor. Thanks for prodding my memory about that! Your's is so cute and I love the way you have it displayed with the cracker tin. Happy Valentine's Day!
