My kitchen progress is coming along, slowly, but surely. Finding all the right pieces takes a lot of patience, and of course budgeting for some of the more expensive changes has to be accomplished one improvement at a time. This year, we painted the cupboards peacock blue, created a chalkboard refrigerator and added to our collection of colorful 1950s housewares, including our pastel ceramic Monterey dishes. My goals for 2013 are: finding the perfect retro oven (it has to be one of the harder to find 30" models), replacing the light fixture above the dining table, and re-tiling the back splash. Maybe by 2014, I can think about new counter tops?!?
Bold indicates items that I covet, the rest is already in place. (From left to right): Our Peacock Feather blue cabinets, chalkboard fridge, white subway tile for the back splash, vintage Pyrex, yellow wooden "eat" sign, Airstream kitchen hand towel, 1950s Wedgewood stove, Yellow Lustro Ware canisters, "Why, yellow Gorgeous!" kitchen hand towel, mint green shake mixer, "Make Lemonade" printable, aqua Lustro Ware reamer, gold star burst clock, pastel ceramic dishes, Amy Butler fabric in Coreopsis, George Nelson Saucer light, & mint green rotary wall phone.
What's your perfect kitchen?

Your kitchen is so, so cool! I absolutely adore the chalkboard fridge (you know, I think that might be the first one I've ever seen before) and the colour palette you opted for. Simply stunning!
