Concrete kitchen counter tops to be exact. After visiting a restaurant that had them at the bar, I am now in LOVE with them. I’ve seen some DIY’s out there, but not sure if it’s something I would want to tackle. Anyone DIY’d their own concrete counter tops? Anyone LOVE or HATE their concrete counters? Wondering how much upkeep they would need. I hear sealing them well is a really big key to keeping them looking their best. Meanwhile, please drool over the following counters.

Open Air
I really want to renovate our kitchen. I love to cook, so having a beautiful kitchen is just as important to me as having beautiful and tasty food. If i have my way, I want open shelving above the counters. I also want butcher block counter tops. These are lovely as well as the metal shelves. Think the shelves are from Ikea, maybe?
White shelves make the space more airy, which I need to a smallish kitchen. Love those spot lights.
Oh! To only have a fabulous chandelier in the kitchen!
I currently have two swatches of color similar to this up on the cabinets right now. I love the turquoise cabinets with the butcher block counters and the white walls.
What a great sink!
Swoon! The Floor! The cabinets! The counter! The wallpaper! This is fast becoming my favorite inspiration!
I’m a sucker for color. Love the green. I mostly love the shelves.
Renovating the kitchen is a big project and it’s not one that we will get around to anytime soon, but a girl can dream.
Nook TeePee

I purchased a tiny bistro style aluminum dining table and 2 chairs a while ago for our breakfast nook. Alas it is just too small for the space. It looks all swallowed up by the bay window, so I needed to find a replacement. Hello CB2! The Teepee table is almost perfect for the space and very good for my wallet!
This is the space it will be occupying :: {please excuse the mess + wall color + lighting fixture, we have only lived in the house for 3 weeks+! Still a mess!}
The bistro set is super cute and the chairs are really comfy. I got it for $99 at TJ Maxx in Columbia before we moved into the house. Might have to find a place for it upstairs in the office for some business-like coffee talkin.
