I've Got the Green Apples....

Happy Memorial Day to all of my U.S. friends!!   I hope you are all having a fabulous long weekend and will think of me as I go off to work today!  No holiday weekend for us, Canadians...
Okay.  No lets talk kitchens.  I have been dreaming of a white kitchen for a couple of years now.  When we first moved into our house, the kitchen cabinets kind of had a white-washed look.  It was very unique and I really liked it at the time.  10 years later, I am not loving the look so much and the cabinets are really in need of a new paint job.  In January we painted our cabinet in our master bathroom {which happened to have the same finish as our kitchen cabinets} and I realized just how big a job the kitchen will be.  I still plan on doing it, but I think it will be waiting until the fall {or whenever I can convince my hubby that we need to do another project}.

So in the mean time, I will just continue to drool over the beautiful white kitchens on Pinterest. I seem to be drawn to the kitchens with a pop of green.  It's just such a crisp, clean color!

I also love these green touches by painting the insides of your cabinets or adding some fun tile.

I also seem to notice, that almost every picture I like has a bowl full of green apples.  They just add that perfect touch!

Now since I will not be getting my white kitchen anytime soon, I thought I would create a little vignette on my hutch as a tribute to my {future} white and green apple kitchen.  On a practical note, however, we are kind of partial to the red varieties of apples around here when it comes to actually eating them.  So... I had to make a quick trip down to Home Sense and pick up a few faux apples.




So one day, I will be posting my new, beautiful white kitchen.  But at least for now, I've got the green apples!

Love those Green Apples against the white- take that any day! I can't agree more with you on the white w/ green pop. It really is a clean pop of color that adds a fresh taste to the room! I love your little hutch with your green- nice work Jenn! Enjoy your Monday!
