Have you ever had a spot in your home that you couldn't get "just right?" Well, as you know I have lived in my home for almost 15 years (the most before that was 7 years, when I absolutely REFUSED to move) and I am almost ashamed to admit that some of the following pictures will show areas that have been this way since 1977! LOL And people say: I am always changing things! WRONG!
Enjoy!
Since I don't live "In a Beautiful FARMHOUSE with a wonderful porch going all around, this is my answer to that. It's only about 6 x 10 but enough for my little (K-Mart- Martha Stewart) table and chairs. (Oops! Sorry about the hose!)
The top of my fridge...it just looks so neat and clean.
(Now should I put all the soda bottles back that have no other place to live in my tiny house!) LOL
I got this little stand from "Collections" catalog for $9.95, repainted it black and when I found 3 Toile plates at Marshalls added a few black candleholders and called it a day!
This crock (from PA.) was given to me from a client and the dog is the
RCA Victor dog. Love it!
Had this corner cupboard made years ago; it's been stained, painted red, tan, and now black. I lined it in red ticking and the bonnet is from an online store.
A favorite spot in my bedroom.
And on the other side of my bedroom: My daughter's birth pictures, First day of school and a teen-age picture as a gift when they threw us a surprise 25th anniversary party in 1976.
In my master bath...the framed picture is an anniversary card sent by a daughter and
I just love the feeling of it.
This is a big, long window over the vanity. I have a theme of "Houses" going on in this bathroom thus the houses on the sill. Oh yea, The light fixture used to be chrome but I sprayed it (satin finish) black and it is great.
I hope you have enjoyed my Favorite Nooks and Crannies...now let me see yours!
Please leave me a comment and come back soon.
(Home Tour #3 is almost ready!)

I love the houses on the sill, they are wonderful. Timless too. I really enjoy reading about all your primitive style creations. Keep it coming!
