Before & After: Small Changes, Big Kitchen Makeover

When I saw AnNicole’s simple but stunning kitchen makeover on her blog Our Suburban Cottage, I was so impressed that I had to show it to you. Without changing the cabinets, counters, flooring, or anything major, AnNicole gave her kitchen a whole new look. This should inspire anyone who doesn’t have a big budget but [...]

Country Living Magazine’s 2009 House of the Year

I have a thing for stone fireplaces. I grew up in a charming old house that had one, which might explain why I always stop to look at rooms with them. Case in point: the family room in Country Living’s 2009 House of the Year. I also like the beamed ceilings and those turquoise chairs. [...]

Brothers & Sisters: Nora Walker’s House in Pasadena

First of all, I have to thank all of you who begged me to do a post about Nora Walker’s house in the TV drama “Brothers & Sisters.” I rented Season One and was immediately captivated by not only Nora’s home (shown here), but daughter Sarah’s, too. The sets are all amazing on this show. [...]

Hooked on Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is one of the highlights of winter for me. A bright spot in a string of long, cold, dark days that we have here in the Midwest during this time of the year. It gives us a chance to have a bit of color around. I fantasize about redecorating my house with fresh [...]

Goodbye, Summer! Goodbye, Turquoise Kitchen!

I’ve been busy redecorating my house over this three-day holiday weekend and getting ready for fall (Happy Labor Day to my U.S. readers!) .
I’m participating in The Inspired Room’s Fall Nesting blog party tomorrow, so I’m trying to get my house all spiffed up before everyone arrives. There was a lot to do because, as [...]

Rachael Ray’s Kitchen

Looky here. Rachael Ray’s kitchen set has a blue Big Chill fridge like the ones I showed you earlier. Her orange stove is apparently a reworked original, but the refrigerator is a retro-inspired new one.
Here’s a shot of it closer up:

Lotsa Lights: Hooked or Hate It?

This breakfast nook was in one of the Homearama houses that you didn’t see during our tour a few weeks ago, but I wanted to show you this breakfast nook. Look at all those light fixtures they hung over this relatively small table. I’ve never seen anyone do that before, have you?
I thought it was [...]

Before & After: Anna Maria Horner’s Kitchen

My friend Cindy over at The Amateur Tightwad told me I had to check out Anna Maria Horner’s amazing kitchen makeover, and I’m so glad she did. Wait until you see what lies beyond those bright blue doors!
Have you heard of Anna Maria Horner yet? If not, you’re in for a treat. Anna Maria is [...]

Can You Guess Who Cooks in This Kitchen?

Okay, boys and girls. It’s time to play “Can You Guess Who Lives Here?”
Believe it or not, this unassuming kitchen belongs to a big-time celeb whose life is much more colorful than this bland decor would suggest. Can you guess who cooks here? (Or whose personal chef does?)
Here are your 3 clues:
1. You could say [...]
