Psssst...I'll let you in on a little secret. I live in my parent's house.
Now kittens, don't get jealous; it's not as glamourous as it sounds. Granted, my parents aren't really here and I have a big 90-year-old house to myself but nothing is mine. It's like living in a museum that my kids repeatedly trash everyday. I can't ever think about painting a room or changing the decor because it isn't mine.
So, obviously, I'm totally working my butt off to get out of here and find a home to make my own, right? Um, kinda. Soon. Eventually. Mostly, I sit around and daydream about how I'd redecorate and right now, I want a pink kitchen. I'm not exactly a girly girl, nor is pink my favorite color, but there is something so frivolous about a pink kitchen and I figure the kitchen area of my future home is mine and I can do whatever the hell I want.

Formica shouldn't make me drool, but in this case it does. |
|
THIS is a refrigerator. I can tell I'm a total control freak mom because I want Little Miss here to close the damn doors. |
|
Duh, necessary. |
|
It's not like those dishes are going to wash themselves. |
|
I have a white one but I'm convinced cakes and breads will taste better when made with a pink mixer. |
|
Pyrex dinnerware in Flamingo Pink. Now, I'm a total pink pyrex junkie and I CANNOT find these in real life. I have them in Lime but Flamingo is proving elusive. Eventually I'm going to have to bite the bullet and start getting these online. |
|
Found these on Etsy. I need these for water. Or highballs. Okay, mostly highballs. |
|
Want some punch? What? Of course it's spiked. What are we? Mormons? |
So that's my list. Totally reasonable, in my opinion.
we need to spend a day hitting up garage sales, estate sales, and thrift stores. we'll wake up early and make several stops for food in between. i'm ready. let's go.
ReplyDeletealso- wear your mrs roper costume. you'll score mega deals with that shit.
A pink kitchen sounds wonderfully decadent, I love that old Formica ad and I'd kill for that punch bowl set so I could sit and get sloshed whilst I watch my man using a pink oven. xxx

I would love a pink kitchen like that!
