A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.

I guess the title says it all! I can’t believe I am showing my pantry on my blog! It is my daughter’s fault! I was cleaning out the remaining Christmas goodies the other day and she asked me if I had shown ya’ll my little pantry makeover. I moved some things around and changed out the paper just before the holidays. Not a huge change just a little pick me up…I wanted it to be a little cuter;)! Sooooooo…here it is! I took the pics while it was nice and empty…so much easier to see the darling paper I used…I love it! I used a different pattern on every shelf…so whimsical. I would have loved to paint the whole thing another color…maybe some day…this was just supposed to be a little pick me up…remember?

I am off to the market!!! I need to get some food to put in there before my family starves to death;)!

Have a wonderful evening!

Lots of Love!!!

Cathy

If your family is like mine, if we're out of cereal...we have no food!

Hi Cathy,
Your pantry is a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e. Love all of your orange pops of color, and your serving pieces aren't just all jumbled together ~ they are arranged! Mine is a mess of Christmas and junk and piles of bowls and other junk. You have inspired me.
Thank you also for your sweet comment. Love visiting here.
Hope you had success at the market!

How charming! We are in the process of renovating the kitchen here at our 1800s hunting lodge and I wish there was more room for a butler's pantry...begin a prop stylist for food shows I have a bijillion plates, platters, etc.. and love to have everything out where I can see it, instead of in the loft in the barn. You have some nice props there too! Happy to have found your blog, can't wait to check it out.

Pamela said...

Cathy, can you come do mine next!?;) The pantry is on my short list of things I want to accomplish soon.
