..and a totally free and almost instnat kitchen makeover.

Picture
When I unpacked the shopping today I kept out on view everything that was yellow and put out of sight everything that wasn't.  I put things I wanted close at hand in a yellow carrier bag and hung it on a handle. I found my yellow apron and chose a few yellow cards from my lovely collection.

Just for fun.

Next week it may be red.  Or green.

Tomorrow I will go and find some branches to put in the yellow pot.

What a clever idea and one which I will certainly copy. Think of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery in this instance. As I read it on a grey and, yet again, stormy morning your bright, cheery kitchen has improved my mood considerably, many thanks.

That's lovely, Freda. How cosy and serene your kitchen looks. On the subject of algae on the patio, half white vinegar, half water in a spray bottle. Spray, leave a minute or two, wipe or mop off. Clean rinse. A bit at a time. That's for the 'floor'. Cleaned my table with washing-up liquid and warm water. Chairs next.

I will try the vinegar and water on the table, as the washing up liquid did not do a great job. Keep going!

This arrived on another grey damp day so the spring colour was really uplifting. Thanks for letting us enjoy your colourful kitchen.

I think maybe colour is more appreciated in February than any other month.

Hmm for me to do this I'd first have to clear all the jars, plastic boxes etc off the counter so not very instant.... but a great idea and very motivating!
