The hard part of my transformation from Christmas to my every-day decor was finished.  The Staircase Decor, Fireplace Decor, & Family Room (along with the surrounding corners and shelves) always takes the most time and effort. (I inserted posts that describe those specific spaces).  In this post, I’ll be highlighting the kitchen, kitchen eating area and surrounding area including a couple of cozy corners.  I will not bore you with the “how-to” details in this post.  I will provide you links to my “how to” posts along the way and they will show you how I put together my cozy corners and lantern. 🙂

Here we go…I started by switching out my tablecloth on the kitchen table and then I created a lantern centerpiece…

Here is a link to my A Lantern Centerpiece For All Seasons post, in that post I describe how I take this same lantern and tray through the Seasons. 🙂

Next, I worked on my kitchen hutch:

And then a cozy corner that sits to the left of the hutch:

I have a lovely corner shelf, that is what I worked on next:

And then I moved into the powder room:

I added a few little things to this grouping that sits on top of the kitchen desk:

And then I moved on to the kitchen windows:

After I got those windows finished, this side of the house was done!!!

Yippee Skippee!!  I did the “Happy Dance”!!  It felt so good to get all of that accomplished.  🙂

Here is that link that I promised to provide y’all to my How To Create Cozy Corners and More post. There is a plethora of info included in that link. 🙂

I still had the living and dining rooms left to do, and I did a little tweaking to the outside of the house as well.  Both of those posts will be coming up in the next couple of days…stay tuned. 🙂

Here is a sneak peek of the living and dining rooms:

Until next time, y’all take good care! ❤
