Black and White Kitchen

Here is a delightful kitchen and butler's pantry all decked out in black and white. I love the collection of Staffordshire dogs on the windowsill over the sink and the fabulous basket on wheels next to island. Actually, I can't find one single thing I don't like. It's absolutely perfect. I woke up to a surprise dusting of snow this morning with small icicles hanging everywhere. The animals weren't wild about putting their warm, toasty paws on the front walk and they didn't stay out very long either. via

Red and White Checks

I am partial to blue and white but decided to give some equal time to red and white checks on a kitchen floor and on cabin beds.

I prefer black and white or gray and white on floors, but this looks nice for a change.

I usually prefer blue and white checks in a bedroom but I have to admit these bunk beds look wonderful in red and white. Sorry I don't have source links. I'll try to add them later.

Wonderful Cottage with House Plans

 

 

 

House plans available from Southern Living. This sweet cottage is called Deer Run. The size is 973 square feet of heated space. Looks perfect, doesn't it? The stone foundation is a nice touch.

Amazing Colonial with Snow

This antique colonial is amazing in its simplicity isn't it? The grounds look wonderful too. Wish I could see more. I had a very busy day today after a pretty lazy weekend. Click on the photo to see it full size for the greatest wow factor. via

Goodnight from the Qoukka

This animal is called a Quokka and it is the happiest thing on the planet. It smiles 24/7. Such a sweet looking animal. Two more photos here. It's from Australia and is about the size of a domestic cat.

The Eyes Have It.

Whooooo is looking at you?

Have you ever seen such an amazing grouping of owl eyes? I haven't. What a nice family portrait! The parents have very long moustaches and beards that completely hide their beaks. Wonder why? via

Small Cooking Space

This is a very well thought out small kitchen. I love the charcoal wall and the stainless steel island. Very nice indeed! via
