At the end of 2015 Mr. Rosemary Lane added white bead board to the kitchen walls and I painted the space above the bead board in Benjamin Moore's Chelsea Gray. But once spring rolled around I wanted to lighten up the kitchen by adding pretty pops of yellow.

This year I purchased new drapes for our back porch but was in a bit of a conundrum of just how to hang them. Then while perusing the internet I fell in love with the idea of using galvanized electrical piping and conduits to create a rod system.

Last March I found this solid wood cabinet on the side of the road. It was pretty beat up but after sanding it down I found the most beautiful wood underneath its dark stain. I decided to use the cabinet on our back porch to hold beverage glasses, bottles of seltzer and outdoor dishware.

Quite the year in review I'd say. Looking forward to another year of great projects, wonderful tours and trips, and different ways of beautifying our home. How about you...what are planning for 2017???
Wishing you all much happiness and health in the New Year!
