{new prints for the kitchen!}

When last you saw our kitchen, it was sporting a homemade spice rack that looked something like this:

However, I get easily bored, and this particular decoration has been in my kitchen for over a year. As such, it's time for a change in scenery.

One of my favorite things to browse for on Etsy are the wonderful prints and photographs that sellers create, particularly the kitchen-themed ones. So many clever and lovely ideas. Here are some of my favorites:


Drool worthy, right?

But, just when I was about to go crazy ordering a bunch of mis-matched prints (because I couldn't decide which ones I loved more) I realized... hold on a tick... I draw AND take photos! Why can't I just decorate my kitchen in my own prints? Duh.

So I took my favorite bread recipe and I doodled away:

And then had some fun and added a splash of color to it:

Fun, right? I'm already in love with it, especially in a pretty white frame. I can't wait to get it into my kitchen so I can bake straight from this print rather than digging out my tattered bread recipe out each time.

Once I was finished giggling over my bread print, I made another.  This time, a tea print of one of my favorite quotes. ('Cause I'm a total tea junkie... and tea mug junkie, more specifically...)

Hooray! Now the next step is to get some frames, some good food photographs, and create something awesome on my blank kitchen wall. Stay tuned!
