As promised

I had a real challenge to figure out what to do with these trays.  I barely have any wall space, no kidding.  The black tray with coffee pots was too wide to hang behind the coffee pot.  It is funny how many times we will rearrange things to get something to work.   I am seriously thinking about painting the bread box red.  For someone who called green their favorite color for at least 45 years- I sure do want lots of red lately.  OK- I'll admit it- I'm mad about red.  Green is now my preferred accent color. 

Speaking of color- I completely have gone 180 on style.  I have been SO, SO frustrated for several months now.  I kept trying to use green, gold, rust and browns.  Then I tried primmin and painted lots of stuff black.  In the mean time, I had bought a red/cream paisley coverlet for our bed and loved it.  When I saw that tray with red, gold, green and cream in it- I said Eureka!  I found it! This is what I have been looking for- my personal inspiration piece. The one that said above all else - here's your style.  

So, now I can start to finish what I started.  Well, you know what I mean! LOL!  You have to understand that we got married 5 years ago next week.  I didn't do lots to the house until my step kids moved out.  So, in my free time in the last 2 years- I have been trying to figure out what to do with this house.  Well, tomorrow I am finally leaving to go to my daughters to stay for the summer.  I can't wait to see my grandsons, have coffee and talk with my SIL in the wee early mornings and spend the days helping my daughter keep house and take care of wee ones.  I am sure I will post pics from there.    I was delayed a week for my rheumatoid arthritis.  God promises to restore what the locusts have stolen in Lamentations.  God is awsome!
