Well, our move was delayed by a snowstorm, and here we are, just a few days later, getting hit with another one.
No matter, it just gives me more time to unpack.
The kitchen is basically done, other than making new curtains. The previous owner left theirs behind in all the rooms on the first floor, and I appreciate not having to rush to make new ones. Even these apple print ones in the kitchen are pretty neutral.
You'll notice the kitchen is green, instead of orange. That's because the main house color living room/dining room/hall - is a warm terracotta and I didn't want us overwhelmed with varying shades of orange.
I'm a little frustrated that I don't have room for all my art, but the limitations are good. I'm being forced to choose my favorite pieces.
Here's the kitchen so far.
The cabinets will get redone or replaced somewhere down the road, but now that I've painted the walls, I don't mind the color as much. My least favorite part is the Formica backsplash, which started out as white with gold flecks but has yellowed over the decades. It's a small thing. I'll think of something to update it when we've dealt with the rest of the place.

The Victorian green is very pretty, cozy kitchen indeed.
Pretty shade of green!
Your kitchen looks hygge and wow, that's a nice stove you have. As for the cabinets, do you know about the Rustoleum cabinet refinishing paint kit. For $80 we refinished our daughter's kitchen cabinets about 4 years ago. And with 2 toddlers in the house, the paint is still intact.
