The breakfast room

In this house the previous owners had a breakfast table and two tall bar stools 

I am planning on of course painting the cabinets in the next few weeks and also lowering the island from bar height to counter height so we can utilize my Lee bongo  cow hide (oh how I love ) bar stools.

Where they had a breakfast table I prefer to use it as a keeping room. I have a small couch and two slip covered chairs 

I have found we use our bar more for eating and our dining table vs a breakfast table 

I also love sitting in an area off the kitchen when I have coffee with my little BFF's

Don't be scared to use rooms in different ways. What works for one family doesn't always make sense for another. If you don't ever use a room think about it in a different way and then change it.

Love where you live! If you don't call me !

Happy Sunday

      

 

Chick-fil-A and being Thankful

Many of you know David aka sweet chicken selling husband and I started a new journey last year when David was offered to be the owner operator of the Ardmore Chick-fil-A. Our journey has been an amazing one. David has loved the challenges of running his own business. My daughters have learned the meaning of hard work and meeting many different people. I have been extremely blessed as there are so many of our team members that I love like my own family. I have learned that everyone has a story. Some stories are amazing and some are sad. Our guests all have stories and I love spending time in our dining room meeting with each and every one of them. 

I am truly thankful for the vision Truett Cathey had when he began Chick-fil-A. I am thankful that my family has been included in the Chick-Fil-A family. So many lessons of serving others as I struggled to help my husband at his store there always seemed to be so much work to get done and not enough time !

I have so many wonderful memories as we are almost to our one year anniversary of our store and I wanted to share some photos of last year. 

Bye Bye Brown Kitchen

I am four days away from moving into my next project. I am trying to reuse and rework the existing space and cabinets. I want to first drop down and square up the island so I can use my fabulous Lee cow hide bongo stools. I want to take out the entire area on the right where the tv is located so my BFF and others will have a coffee bar with one side with a counter top and the other side just open shelves for dishes ( to pretend I cook) 

Maybe the right side with open shelves

And the other side like this one I did with a counter top for serving 

Or even open shelves above the serving area 

Either way that section is coming down and the white spray paint is coming out in full force 

Happy Tuesday 

Love where you Live! If you don't change it, sell it, fix it or paint it!
