A cute and bright little kitchen
I've wanted to post this for ages, but for the past year I've had a gross vinyl floor in my kitchen, and it just made everything look dirty.
But the landlords finally put in a new one and we're good to go!
I rent a 1-bedroom apartment in a converted house in Ontario, Canada that I share with my kitty, Seth.
So that^^ is the view from the living room doorway. The door opens up to the backyard and a cement deck the size of a postage stamp.
Because the room is so small, I didnt want to overpower it with colour, so I painted an accent wall. The colour is Bongo Jazz by Dulux. It has a bit more of a coral tone IRL.
The wooden cart is from Ikea and is my bakin' station. It also houses an "I love you because..." picture from my love that he updates with inside jokes when he visits. The microwave cart doubles as a pantry. Yep, thats how small the kitchen is. But I love it.
Despite living alone, my fridge is covered in stuff. Pictures and letters from my sponsored kids, a menu from my favourite Chinese place, notes to self, shopping list... Yikes.
Right side of the kitchen. I love having a dishwasher. Its so handy after lots of cooking and baking.
That paper puffer fish was the prize in a Kinder egg. You inflate it by blowing into the peach-coloured ring. I decided to rest the shelf on the back of the stove instead of trying to find studs without a stud finder. I like how it looks either way. Bought the decals at the dollar store; theres some on the opposite cupboards too.
My mom made me the stained glass panel years ago. Its 2 of my old cats, Oliver (orange) and Dave (grey). He did actually have blue eyes.
Annnnnnd exposed brick on the way to the living room. Love.
Thanks for stopping in!
