VERY SIMPLY WHITE

I have always been attracted to white.  I love white dishes because the food never clashes and a table setting can be created with just about any accent color imaginable.  We have our color phases, but as I look at the white possibilities in design, the kitchen accessories seem to call out to me.

I have a wonderful kitchen that was updated about 10 years ago.  I wanted pure divided light cupboard doors and knew that what was showing would always have to be in perfect

order and interesting in content.  While visiting a friend a few weeks back (and the first time in her home) I was blown away with her display of white in her kitchen. . .

Her collections of white, glass and pewter were beautifully displayed and easily

accessible.  I promise you that this picture does it NO justice!

I was inspired so much that I marched my little self home and when from a green

cubby to an all white cubby.  I loved it and realized I was long over due for

a change.  It is Fall afterall and I was beginning to NEST.

I have a lot of white and found it scattered . . . . so I gathered!

The soup tureen came home in my carry-on from France.

Silver birds keeping company with pewter seems to work very well.

The pewter revere bowl was a purchase from an estate sale

last year. . . . $2.00

More white, silver and pewter.

My Bridgewater Collection and a vintage pair of salt and

pepper shakers.

More silver, glass and white.  The dinner bell was made from my mom's

everyday silver.

An inspirational afternoon of playing house.

Have you been nesting?  Who has inspired you and what

have you done?
