    I told Mum last weekend that I wanted to hang one of those chandeliers with silk shades over my country style kitchen table when I move house. She didn't think it would work. I beg to differ. :D

    Hi Leigh,
    Thankyou, firstly for today's lovely pics. I especially like the use of white shades on the chandelier in image 2 (and 5). And secondly for the kind words you left me re my upholstering.
    I absolutely LOVE your blog. I could live outside in your beautiful grounds, very Paul Bangay-ish, fan-tastic!!!

    Love a chandelier in every room! Low ceilings, but I could put one over the kitchen sink! Thanks for the reminder. (look at the moulding in the pic with the pretty almond stove!)

    Love the photos. I have been begging my husband to let me change out our current light fixtures in our kitchen for some yummy chandeliers. Now after looking at these photos, I want them even more!

    I just went through a huge photo file on kitchens. Most of them had white walls! I guess I know what colour to paint them now!

    * Yummy~ Have ALWAYS loved "the look"!!! (And especially am endeared to that first photo.... so darling!!!)~

    NOW, I'm NOT much of a COOK anymore, & when meals are made, it's usually salad & grilled meats (done outside) for us... BUT, I STILL think of the "practicality" (OMG!) of SHADES in a space where cooking takes place~~~ Can't help it... Annnd, if someone actually FRIES food anymore, what about GREASE??? ( Of course, personally, if I DID cook that way, I'd just "STOP" so I COULD have the pretty chandelier!!!)~

    Thanks!!!

    Gorgeous, luxurious kitchens.....they put mine to shame !!!!....only thing is (and I'm being a bit practical here. Not like me !!!!) kitchens are very greasy places and I think that the chandelier may suffer...just a thought. Am I being an old stick in the mud, Leigh? (sorry, that could be an English expression.)

    Oh my! I realize I am always wanting to redecorate something, but if I could just live in those white inspired photos please, I will never ask for another thing... until next time.

    I love white rooms. Gorgeous.

    If I had two choices - look at photos of jewelry or kitchens, it'd always be kitchens, hands-down.
    The second & last photos are my fav. My kitchen is like a tomb..dark..dark..dark. D:

    Lovely post xx
