I wanta play!

Nester's having a party! She's been doing a series about 10 Minutes to Rooms You Love and for a finale she's linked to a lot of make-overs. Her dictates? Turn on lamps, remove clutter, use what you have. I chose the kitchen this morning, mainly because it  needed picking up--and that's about all I did. Sorry, no magic here. :)

Here's the first before, with packaging from something I got in yesterday's mail cluttering the bar. 

Another before--I hadn't put away pots from last night. 

Yet another before pic: I'd just gotten home with groceries. 

And still another view of the mess. And now the afters: 
All I did was put away the pots, 
Pick up the mess, 
Put away the groceries, 
And cut some greenery from the yard.  Tidy makes a world of difference! So would flowers have done, but I only had a bit of lavendar, some red bush tips and African iris leaves.
