Hi Friends
and
Happy February!!
Hope you had a nice weekend.
On my mission to clean out, refresh and get more organized,
I did a bit of redoing in the kitchen too.
I'm calling this my winter kitchen,
leaving a little of the red
I decorated with at Christmas.
Between the holidays,
I found this darling pitcher and bowl lamp
on a junkin trip.
It didn't have the black and white checks.
I added those with my glass paint.
It came with a shade
but it was out of scale
and
I replaced it with this darling red shade I found at Walmart.
It was plain red
and I added the black trim to the top and bottom
to give it a finish.
It just needed a little something.
It's so cozy in the evening and early mornings
with the glow of the lamp.
Santa brought this MC teapot.
I love it on my stove with
the painting above
and
the cherry plate I painted a while ago also with black checks.
Winter comfort food recipes near by and ready.
Loving this corner with my old rusty scale
and the chalk board I created last fall.
A little refresh for winter.
Nothing like an organized space!!
I decided to leave the Waverly curtains I added during the holidays.
Love them for winter and the cozy feel at the table.
The rose plates help bring in a little color.
Layering a couple trays on a shelf,
I added a chalk board
of a chicken
with added checks.
and stenciled No3
I love the number 3
and
I love checks!
So enjoying my winter kitchen.
Have you updated any rooms for the season?
I'd love to hear your stories.
Have a great week
and I hope February
is a wonderful and blessed month for you!

Hi dear celestina ,, que bonitos rincones , usted tiene muy buen gusto para la decoración
Your kitchen looks wonderful, love all your beautiful and harmonious designs. Hugs, Valerie
Oh my goodness, this is just gorgeous! I love so many things in your kitchen today. The lamp is adorable in the corner, the teapot...you know I love that, I've loved your painted dishwasher for awhile. You do such a great job adding your creative touches. Let's have coffee. :)
I'm really loving it all, but the 'be thankful' really stands out! Welcome February and have a great week!
You have such a wonderful way of tweaking.I love that cute lamp with the addition of the checks and also the teapot. I do think we all need a winter refresh. I love your whole kitchen! Happy February!
What a cute chalkboard chicken! I love your kitchen. So warm and inviting. And that lamp, ooh la la!

Good Morning, Celestina! You are always an inspiration. :-)
Your kitchen looks lovely, and that lamp...very cute!
I too have been purging, cleaning and organizing my home. While taking time with the Lord I am also getting things in order. It's always such a good feeling when those things have been accomplished.
I'm still on break, but had to stop in for a lovely visit, and I wasn't disappointed.
Have a beautiful day~
Your little lamp looks so cute in the corner, Celeste, and I love the addition of the checks. Your MC tea kettle was a sweet gift from your hubby! My son painted me a look alike MC tea kettle for a Christmas gift the year before. The scene on your dishwasher is another beauty that you've created...sigh!!!! All your touches of red add such a happy warmth to your cozy kitchen. Thanks for letting us take a peek at the ❤️ Of your home. xo
That lamp is adorable! I love the checks you added and the great shade.
What a beautiful kitchen Celeste! I bet it is a joy to cook your meals there each day, so warm and welcoming :-) Have a great Monday!
Blessings,
Jill

Hi Celeste, my dear friend! Your kitchen is such a lovely place, thank you for sharing new pictures! I LOVE this teapot you got from SantaClaus! :O))
Wishing you a wonderful new week and a happy and joyful february too!

I could move in...love the little lamp, the checks, yeah, those checks and the warm feeling you have there.
I am not redoing any room right now. Been working on the playroom, though. I have my very own mini sewing area for the first time in my life now! Can't wait to get started on some things floating around in my head.
Need to drag myself away and get some things done around here.
Hi Celeste,
I love your lamp - great choice with the lampshade and your glass paint checks! Your winter kitchen is delightfully warm and welcoming. Have you ever tried PINK lightbulbs? They give such a pretty glow. I have them in alot of my lamps!! I'll be doing a post soon...about them.
Hugs,
Jan ♥
Just gorgeous!!! I love black, white & red. The lamp is totally adorable with your special touches. Looks perfect with your tea pot that I covet. :) Your entire kitchen is just beautiful!
I've missed you ~ have been having some computer issues. I hope you have a wonderful week! If you'd like to have coffee or lunch sometime, I'd love it!

Your kitchen is sooooooooooo stinkin' cute! I love a lamp on the kitchen counter. There's just something about that light!!!!!!

I love that rose plate! My name is Rose and I like rose items.
Celeste,
I love the warmth a lamp gives in a kitchen. I have always enjoyed one on my countertop and have it on a dimmer switch for a soft glow at night. Your addition of the Black and White checks added a fun punch of playful expression and I love the red shade. Your kitchen is warm and inviting and very well organized.
xoxo,
Vera
Love your special touches! The lamp updates are adorable. You are always good about adding those extra embellishments that add that special touch! Your dishwasher is pretty stylin'! Did yo paint that?
So lovely details in your beautiful kitchen - dear Celestina - simply superb and welcoming.
Blessed happy week
Hug Crissi
i like the chickens. :)
I have not refreshed really. My kitchen is still full of old finishes so I just put back what was there before Christmas. Your kitchen is just beautiful Celestina! Thanks for sharing and giving me hope for my kitchen of the future :)
Love your kitchen. IT is so warm and cozy. Love coming out into my kitchen early in the morning and smelling the coffee.
I like the black and white checks and the red you have in there. You know how I love roosters and chicks.
Very pretty.
Have a great week.
Hugs
Mary

Oh I love checks too! I have three plates in checks that I used for a tiered tray long ago. Maybe I can send them to you since I no longer use them?
Your kitchen is beautiful, my friend. And that lamp is just too sweet.
I hope your week is off to a wonderful start. Love and hugs!
Celeste, your lamp is adorable! What a great find to go with your fantastic teapot! This girl loves MC! I lost so many of my pieces, in our beach home when hurricane Ivan destroyed it, eleven years ago. I really haven't invested in many pieces since then. You have a lovely kitchen! It's so warm and inviting decorated for Winter!
I love your lamp! That is great inspiration! I have looked at the MC teapot for a long time! It looks wonderful in your kitchen! Loving all of your touches. Have a beautiful week. Lynn
Your kitchen looks so cozy for winter. Love your lamp!!
hugs,
Cindy
Oh I just love that cross-stitch heart! That was my first craft skill and I miss it so sometimes. I should start again. Happy Monday!
Very lovely and comforting with the touches of red and your signature black and white checkers. Love the vignettes you create dear...
Celeste your kitchen looks fresh and beautiful, love you MC teapot, I am lucky to own a few f her items in her parchment check, I receive her cookie jar for Christmas...lol...now I'm working on the teapot for Valentibes Day....:-)
Smiles~
Mari
Your winter kitchen is very attractive and inviting. I was drawn to the cross stitch heart as well, rather pretty.
Diana
Your new MC teapot looks gorgeous on your stove next to the plate you painted! Small lamps add such a nice glow to a kitchen, too. Your kitchen is a beautiful space and you must love to spend time in there!
You've added the sweetest touches to your beautiful kitchen, Celestina Marie! I just love the little checks and the touches of red add such warmth. A warm and cozy place to cook, or have a nice cup of tea on a cold winter day. So easy to tell that your kitchen is the heart of your home! <3 Hugs and blessings xo Karen
what a cute and wonderfully cozy kitchen, so sweet and welcoming. since i put christmas away, i have not done any decorating. i am however, getting ready to start spring cleaning.....so when spring arrives, i am done....and have time to have fun!!!!
I love it all, Celeste, especially those irresistible black and white checks. Thank you for sharing your pretty kitchen with us.
xoxo
Love the lamp you found and the great touches that you brought to it so that it goes with all the rest of your items in the kitchen, you are so creative. Your table setting is just lovely and like how you have a pitcher and bowl on that too :) Your chicken decorations look great grouped together too.
No I haven't had time to do any decorating, in fact today I am taking down all my snowmen and putting up my Valentine goodies.
Your kitchen is so pretty! All the black and white check is adorable and brings in a bit of whimsy your beautiful space. I bet this is your happy place ;-)
Lovely touches to make your kitchen so pretty. The lamp is a great idea and the MC pieces are catching my eye. I so admire their brand. Very welcoming kitchen to hang out in. Some of my favorite colors. xo
I love the lamp that you found! That is awesome!
Lisa :O)
I love the black and white with touches of red in your beautiful kitchen! You have a fantastic flair with design and decor! I will never regret painting my cabinets white last spring...it just has such a clean look to it! Enjoy your Tuesday :)
I love the little lamp on your kitchen counter. It's so much cozier in the evenings than the overhead lights. I love the black and white and touches of red; everything looks really beautiful in your kitchen. You are such an inspiration! I've rearranged a few things in my house recently, and we are working on some more decluttering, papers and photos. It's cold and cloudy outside, so a good time for indoor pursuits!
Blessings to you, Deborah
This looks SO pretty!
Thanks for joining Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
lovely
Hello Celestina, I can only admire your kitchen and all its lovely items. I am struggling to keep my kitchen neat and tidy but I think I am doing a lousy job.
Your kitchen is gorgeous!! I LOVE your teapot too. I could almost enjoy cooking in a kitchen like that....well almost! hehe Cheers.
Hi Celestina, your kitchen decor is just beautiful! TFS this at Cooking and Crafting with J&J!
I just love your beautiful kitchen! The counter tops are gorgeous. Oh I bet you have yourself some great tea out of your new teapot. It's so sweet! There is so much I want to do and need to be doing in my home right now! I keep waiting on that "okay, today is the day" moment to jump on me. HA! Have a great day. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Oh my friend I love to see these wonderful photo's of your 'winter comforts' : ) Beautiful kitchen Celeste~

Dear Celestina Marie,
Loved having a little look at your beautiful kitchen and can feel the warmth here with all your beautiful things and know there will be some wonderful smells coming from your cooking. Love the black and white and red touches and how lucky getting the teapot from Santa.
Hope you are enjoying the week and many thanks for the kind visit to my blog.
love and hugs

Love your MC kettle with the checkerboard pattern!
Oh, dear Celestina...what a lovely, inviting home you have, and I do so love your winter kitchen...it looks so cosy - I am sure it is delightful to creat delicious, hearty meals in it! And such a pretty white pitcher you found too...you always inspire me! I am hoping to make my sewing room a bit more inviting, and then we have a baby room to decorate...so exciting!
Have a wonderfully blessed Thursday...hugs!
Winter or not, I love your beautiful kitchen! Sweet lamp you found/created! Many Blessings, Cindy
Hi dear Celeste! I loved to read about your winter kitchen! Again you've managed to twist things your way. I love what you did to 'drag' the lamp into the whole interior with adding the shade and trim to it and painting the checks on the stand. So nice! It looks so cozy in that kitchen, so warm! Wish I could come over for a hot chocolat :D I hope all is well with you dear! xoxox Ingeborg
I love your black, white, and red kitchen, Celestina. I just changed my colors in my kitchen to turquoise and white to lighten things a bit for spring. But I'll forever love red in the kitchen. And I've always wanted a checkered tea pot just like this. The black rooster is charming, and the rose plates.....gorgeous.
love, ~Sheri
