A patched together lifestyle of thrift and charm...

Pretty Kitchen Storage...

Last week I met a friend for a 'junking' day.  Her home is gorgeous and I took some pictures to share with you.  Many of her furnishings come from discount stores and yard sales.  
Her taste is just so excellent you will think otherwise.   
Today I'm showing you some of her creative storage ideas 
in her kitchen.  Let's start with her kitchen hutch...
She keeps teas, etc. that she uses every day right out front in 
pretty apothecary canisters...
She also has a pretty wall cupboard where she houses 
nutritional supplements and medicines...
A 2nd small floor cupboard holds her baking supplies.  
Again - note her use of pretty jars...
On top of the cupboard is a Hershey tin filled with cookie cutters...

Due to limited cupboard space - there is a pot rack in a corner 
just loaded with her cooking pots and pans...
Below the rack - some baskets hold extra canned goods 
that don't currently fit into cupboard space...
In these crocks - sitting right on the floor - 
her potatoes and onions reside...
A view of some of her cupboard and counter space... 
filled with projects in the works and other kitchen goodies...
I'm learning from her just how important baskets and pretty containers are to good looking storage.  And don't you love her 'brick' floor?  It's actually a teracota tile of some sort.
Thank you for the tour, my friend!
I'll share more from this lovely home another day.
