Fresh Squeezed Fun


The cabinets in Autumn's kitchen will soon be wearing a fresh coat of white enamel paint. She wanted lots of red accents, but with the open floor plan of their little home, and the living room furniture being a cream background with blue and green plaid, she's rethought everything a little. There's also a narrow berry stripe in the plaid. 


Autumn and I found the most adorable print from Fresh Squeezed Fabrics. It's just right to bring the living room and kitchen together. She can't wait to get started making a curtain for her kitchen window!



I bought two coordinates. I'm going to whip up a little something extra for her. Placemats? A table runner? A cutesy apron?


For me? You shouldn't have, but I'm glad you did! 

Randi's fabrics are very high quality, and are even more beautiful in person than they are on her site. She included these three beauties, and I'm keeping them for myself.

What sweet fabric! It makes me hungry for summer fruits and veggies! Autumn's curtain plans remind me that I need to make curtains soon, too...for the bedrooms and our upstairs bathroom! :-)
