    Well thanks a bunch you lot! After a couple of days viewing pics of bygone style kitchens, welsh dressers crammed with eclectic objet, vintage kitchenalia, distressed cookware and trusty arga's I decided to 'dress' my clinical, clean lined, no-nonsense kitchen up a bit make it look a bit more homely and OS. With a vague memory of Farmhouse Kitchen as broadcast in the 1970's in my minds eye I set about gathering all kinds of odds 'n' sods from all four corners of the MATH empire which I have now displayed in assorted piles around my kitchen. It now resembles a WI bric-a-brac stall complete with silver jubilee mug and talking cookie jar, thank goodness I couldn't lay hand on that fish plaque thingy that sings rock around the cod. It will take me twice as long to clean on Friday as usual and I have no space to prepare meals. So thanks a pigging bunch you lot. I told ya I couldn't do country chic but ya would start flaunting ya enamel bread bins and jaunty gingham. Well I hope you're pleased with yourselves is all I can say - I'm going for a soak in the bath to escape the mess, It's doing my head in. LOL

    Can we have a picture please? :rotfl: :rotfl:
  • ahhhhhhh but that'll make it more lived in and homely :-)
    i just fantasise about a huge kitchen with an island.......any psycics out there wanna gimmie the lottery numbers??????
    LTS, I have to confess I cheated on the pictures :o

    This IS my kitchen, just before I lived here :rolleyes:

    As my dear brother "borrowed" my digital camera ages ago, I used the pic from the estate agent's brochure to show you what my kitchen is like. Now, add a bit more clutter to the worktops and kids stuff dumped on the island and you've got it ;)

    Oh and don't forget all my utensils hanging from the rack in the kitchen, I managed to keep that bit from the previous owner :D

  • ooohhhhhhhhhhh how much would i love that!!!!!!
