Just a random list this time, because I've neglected it for so long. It's been a busy spring, and that's just fine.

"new" 1790 house!

I'm in the throes of renovating a 1790 house on the coast of Maine. Lots of work, lots of choices. Lots of money, time and sweat! Still, every time I look out my kitchen window at the ocean, I get energized. Cabinet doors in the kitchen were functional but tired, so I've had them refinished and painted. When I get the kitchen painted, it will begin to look "new" - although my image for it is a retro, 50s type kitchen, all blues, greens, cream, Fiesta, Fire King. There's never a dull moment. I like that. I'll post pictures soon.
