Please forgive me. But I just had to share this with my friends. [View all]

I'm 52 years old and I finally got to create the kitchen of my dreams....(within our very limited budget) I did most of the painting and hand picked EVERYTHING in it. We did the kitchen two years ago.
I have carefully found and saved up for Matching dishes,Glasses.and silverware. I hand dyed the table cloths,napkins, ect.
I have NEVER had matching dishes! LOL!

This Christmas was my very first formal (at least for us) dining set up! here are the pictures!
