Did you look into the kitchen in the last post? I told you to save that so-sweet-it's-sour eye candy for a dedicated post and here it is. Behold the kitchen in all it's pink glory!
The kitchen cabinets were a wedding gift to my grandma from her mother. |
I'm not sure why the oven is open and the light is on... |
Before these appliances, there were avocado green ones but I'm not sure what was there before that. |
There was a stainless steel sink before this one. More Precious Moments on the shelves here. The door on the left leads to the back yard. |
The lower cabinets have pull-out slider shelves. Very ahead of the times! The narrow cabinet on the right has a slide-out towel bar. |
She's a fan of Raggedy Ann and Andy and this is just where SOME of the collection lives. |
She has an interesting way of storing her dishware. but she doesn't use it much so it's not inconvenient to keep it this way. |
Some more Raggedy Ann stuff and her handpainted eggs. She did a lot of ceramic work and was very skilled with a paintbrush. |
The floor is standard linoleum floor tiles and the star was custom inlaid from larger pieces of the same kind of tiles. |
Now we can head back down the hallway and check out the bathroom.
While I'm not fond of the colors in here, I do love this bathroom. I think the tub is so cool and the room is large for a 50s bathroom. |
The built in linen storage is great. The bottom cabinet has a laundry chute on one side. |
Now the last room on this floor, the master bedroom.
SO...MUCH...PINK. |
The Case between the door and the closet is Grandma's dollhouse. She made it in the 70s. I'll post pictures of that someday. |
Hope you enjoyed the first floor phase of the house tour! I still have to take photos of the basement where grandma lives now and the second floor bedroom and attic space which is currently a mess.
