I've always thought I'd like to do my kitchen in teacups.
This isn't my quilt but wouldn't this be cute in a smaller version to put on a kitchen wall.

I vote CHICKENS!!!!! Come join us in making chicken blocks for your new wall hanging, pot holders and table runner... :lol: :lol:

Actually, I like your apple collection. You could just paint the kitchen walls a different color like a light green and still use your apples...they would look totally different on a different background.

What a nice kitchen you have. So bright, and CRISP! I am piggy backing on an earlier comment. Have fun! :lol:

I love the apples!!! My mom moved into a new home about a year and a half ago and I went with her to pick out her kitchen window curtains. We both fell in love with a set of curtains with apples on them, they were too cute!!! My mom also liked a set with birdhouses on them that were cute too!! However, she decided on the apples because her kitchen is painted a wine red color and the apples would go perfect. BUT the curtains didn't come in the right sizes. She ended up not even using curtains anyhow!!!! She had her husband build her a shelf across the middle of the window for plants instead. A curtain isn't really necessary anyway because they live in the sticks and there is no one to see in the window anyway!

My kitchen stuff is black and red with a ladybug theme. Stuff that isn't red/black ladybug is polished stainless steel. I also have some of the "chef" stuff because it goes really well with the red and black!!

And you know what? Sometimes it just takes a little bit of updating in the decor and what you have will fit right in.

My sister has apples in her kitchen now... navy paint on am accent wall, navy curtains with a stripe of red and a strip of ivory along the hemmed edge..., navy counter top. And then she accented it with apple decorations.

The room is fresh and crisp! Just like apple decor should be!
