I just finished sprucing up our kitchen for the winter months. Amazingly enough it is actually still cold out! I am enjoying having a true winter.

I am also loving the simplicity of decor after the holidays.

Whenever I post our kitchen over on FB I always get comments on how our kitchen is beautiful but not practical and that I must not use it.
I use it everyday y'all!:) It is the heart of our home.

I do not tend to cook anything greasy on the cooktop but if I do I just take the wreath down if necessary. As for dirt build up, it doesn't happen. I wipe the area down everyday with Clorox Wipes. The hood sticks out far enough that even if I was a messy cook nothing can get on the wood portions.

Our kitchen is one of my favorite spaces in our home. It has come a long way from when we first in.

 I love seeing our laundry room floors! I painted the laundry room last January I think it was. Shhh, do not tell Mr. Front Porch but I am getting ready to repaint it yet again!:) Now with the kitchen painted SW Agreeable Gray I no longer like how SW Steamed Milk looks in the laundry room.

So there ya have our simple winter kitchen. I am working on some ideas for above the cabinets. Just waiting on a few things to come in that I ordered. I can't wait!
Thanks for stopping by.

    1. Thank you Cindy! I sewed four panels and then hung cafe rods on the island. I have a post about it from not too long ago.

  2. I love the floor...don't change it. In all the pics (and I love everything), the floor really stood out as a 'wow'.

    1. Thank you Tammy! Oh I am not changing the floor!! I love that flooring as well. It was a custom design I picked out when we built the house. I am just going to change the paint color in there. Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend!

  3. I love your kitchen, especially your cooking area. I have a wood hood (and have had it for 20+ years). A little wipe down with dish soap (it cuts grease), and keeping the fan on when I cook, makes it as easy as anything else you could use.

    I am in love with your laundry room!

    1. Thank you Jane! Our last hood I would have to wipe down but it was set back further. This one I have only ever had to wipe down the exhaust. It really is a non issue. Hope you have a great weekend Jane!

  7. Hi Pamela ... Love your kitchen. Do you have a blog on installing your tongue and groove back splash? I love the look and may consider it. I looked at three of your blogs on this subject, but did not see how you installed it.
    Thanks,

    1. Hi Audrey. Thank you for your kind words. No I did not do a tutorial on how we installed the tongue and groove. I have a spot over by our sink that still needs it installed. If I remember I will take pics along the way and share. It is a pretty simple DIY!:)

  12. I, too, think your kitchen is beautiful, but it also looks very practical as well. I think you have done an amazing job of adding your own special touches to a new-build and really giving it character.

    Hugs,
    Carol

    1. Thank you! That piece I am guessing came from the top of an old pie safe. My mama found it for me one day while out treasure hunting.
