A LITTLE RED VINTAGE SHELF AND A RAG CURTAIN TO FILL ANOTHER EYE SORE!

Hi, so happy you came by, hope your Sunday is peaceful at what ever your doing. I tackled another kitchen eyesore today. There was a place in the kitchen that had an opening for a dishwasher we did not put one there instead I came across a cabinet with a bow front great for canned goods that fit there almost perfectly except for the 8 or so inches on the top I had baskets there but I tired of the look. I thought about a tension rod and a little curtain that I would make. But I decided that I would try a little rag curtain. So I gathered some small pieces of material scraps and tried it out. What do you think?......It certainly is shabby, this is the area that I usually stash pie plates or a bigger item from the grocers.

I used some red and cream checked, black checked  and some lace. just tied it on some heavy cording so its not permanent.

I didn't have to search far for this little half shelf it was dark green and really chippy so I gave it a red coat and sanded it well. The old candle stick I left as I found it. It already has that beautiful chippy look as is. So I managed to cover up a little open area and fill a little end wall with a little something.

Thanks so much for stopping by !
