I know you would be worried about it being dusty and all, but I think it would be beautiful. I found one called Verde Peacock, it's black with green tones. We are using it on our outdoor kitchen. It would give you more of a contrast too. But that's just me. <BR/><BR/>DebAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08171600053514958080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399639578758058574.post-12920441270060435442009-03-08T13:25:00.000-05:002009-03-08T13:25:00.000-05:00Wish I could get to the $16 soup tureen!!

I had to Google ORB to find out what kind of faucet that was?!<BR/><BR/>And I love your Grandma - wow what a great looking lady!<BR/><BR/>And about kitchens - gee, I have an old stainless steel sink, and I would LOVE to have a white Kohler sink!!! (was that your previous sink-I think???)-I have gotten confused - but I grew up right near Kohler, anyway..... I digress. And my kitchen is in such bad need of redoing - but heck, I was happy last year we got new counter top - a whole twelve feet of new laminate for $40.00, it was a huge improvement! And I did pick up a white sink at a garage sale, just haven't had the heart to make hubby put it in, if they aren't such a good thing to have! (I had heard that before) And I do still have old wallpaper in my kitchen from YEARS ago, and need to replace it, but making decisions is a tough one for me! So I just keep what I have! (sideways grin!) My first priority in the kitchen tho is my 30 year old Mannington vinyl floor, ah yes, but more decisions - anyway - you have a LOVELY kitchen, and I really liked your one from last August (?) too - I love beadboard! So just wanted to tell you I enjoyed the tour!<BR/><BR/>Hugs from Michigan - DianeDiane Fay (littlealma)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02825847496677271674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399639578758058574.post-60626740082108144522009-03-07T23:14:00.000-06:002009-03-07T23:14:00.000-06:00What a fun day you had with your Grandmother!

I was up in B'ham for a conference that I thought started Friday AM, instead Friday PM, so I hit the road to go treasure hunting. I got some neat painted ceiling tiles to hang SOMEWHERE in my house. I was hoping your expert eye would have caught an old tool chest that I adored... but I didn't get. I just knew I was going to see it on here! :)Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10375276956145633988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399639578758058574.post-31694259184757002832009-03-07T19:41:00.000-06:002009-03-07T19:41:00.000-06:00Looks like a fun day, Rhoda!
