Project kitchen remake ....

Inspiration board ....
In March we will start renovating the old kitchen
There are many thoughts and ideas to keep track of
I have attempted to make an inspiration board....

 
It's really gone very well but I will probably find more inspiration along the way ....

 
But here's the first draft .....



































Only two days after having made my inspiration board I found three retro lamps that I just had to own ....
I think they are gonna be a key elements in the renovation ....



I finally found a company who make old linoleum floors but unfortunately there is not one in sea green or turquoise so I have to settle for the gray and white shades maybe something red or black .....
                                                                
Only time can tell where this project will lead. I can not wait to start ....

The last pictures from our trip last year....

Better late than even later....

The last nine days of our trip were spent in and around Ann Arbor Michigan
As previously described, was the trip to Ann Arbor for the purpose of being tattooed at Spiral Tattoo
but We got so much more home with us than just a tattoo
We met the most warm-hearted people who invited us to visit their home and thank You for that....

It is not the last time I visit Michigan hopefully again in 2015 if all goes well
I am sure I have left a piece of my heart there....


































I am a “foodie” so farmers market was a must but next time I need a kitchen....

Hunting and outdoor life is a big industry here Cabelas is huge
We spent no less than three and a half hours there
There was plenty to look at live fish and wall to wall dead animals do I have to say that it is the husband's favorite store
..... 

We also visited Detroit
You can talk about the rise and fall it is both exciting and scary
Always rooting for the underdog go Detroit We believe in you....


Next trip to the States is being planned and will start probably in Chicago then to the big swapmeet in Davenport and last but not least road trip to Michigan......

That´s all for now.....
