Hi Pat - well I did Czech it out and love the old country ambiance you created. I'm sure when you sit in this kitchen you can probably feel a presence of your ancestors all about you!! Great Job.
Hey PPC, INC: Isn't it a shame that there are so few true craftsmen left anymore. It's a dying art and none of the younger generations were interested in pursuing what their "elders" did - learn a trade & knowledge handed down through the families. Machines have taken over so many tasks that a master's hands used to do - but the heart & soul aren't in any of the newer creations sadly!!
Thank you Susan and PPC so much! My next to add to it is little pictures of my grandparents. I do love it. I just have to decide, too, on the floor. As much as I'd love cobblestone, I don't think it would be practical.
Yah - could be a little rough to stand on - not to mention killing your back too. Now me, I can trip over lint so as much as I might something like this too, I think I'd have better luck leaving it for an outside application!
The yellow kitchen is so bright and cheerful.
I work with a Czech carpenter and a tile man occasionally that are real craftsmen.
