Hello my friends,
Today I shall show you my kitchen. The longer I live with it the more I like it, no, the more I love it!
It feels so good. I was hoping it wouldn't feel cold, green and blue are cold colors, but no, it feels bright and happy instead.
This was a mis-tint that I bought for $10.00, a C-I-L Dulux Paint. There's no name or number on it, it is a Velvet Flat Latex. It was truly the best $10.00 I ever spent. It was very easy to paint with, the paint is almost of a gel consistency. I had no drips and when I used the roller it didn't splatter, like some are known to do.
Have a look and tell me what you think.
I hope you like it!
My friend Ana, of A Petite Cottage exchanged hearts with me at Valentine's. The one she sent me is simply adorable. She is so thoughtful, it has a turquoise bow on it. Thank you dear Ana. Every day I learn to love you ladies more, bloggers really are the most wonderful, thoughtful people in the world. That's not to say that my readers that don't have blogs are not perfectly wonderful too, like my little sister Susan, who reads my blog faithfully and my daughters also. I love you girls!
Several centimeters of snow fell yesterday and today. I took a walk in the softly falling snow, it was so lovely and peaceful.
Have a lovely day!
Hugs to you all.
Cindy

Would love to have you follow me back! Have a wonderful evening!Hugs~Poppy
I love the new turquoise color, Cindy. It makes your white cabinets pop and adds a touch of bright cheerfulness to the room. I'd say it was a well spent $10!
That was a wonderful find, Cindy. Your kitchen is beautiful. I love the colour!
Your kitchen is just beautiful. The color is terrific. I love the tall, glass front cabinets that you have. They look like they can store lots of goodies.
In my opinion, it's a cool & refreshing color - almost mint-like. I like it!
Hi Cindy,
I love the soft color! Very pretty. The heart Ana sent is perfect. Enjoy your snow!

What a pretty color Cindy. I love it. Boy you've been up to a lot. You've been one busy little bee. Everything looks amazing. Can't wait to see more of that new fireplace. I am so glad you liked you little heart. It was made with lots of love. Sending you a great big hug.
Much love,

Love it! I've always loved your kitchen anyway, but the aqua is a nice change and its such a soft aqua it looks so pretty! Great job, and the price makes it all the sweeter!
Oh you have been busy! The color is perfectly you. I think the heart you received is adorable. I made a few hearts earlier in the month and gave them as gifts. They were very fun to make...especially the embellishments. Enjoy the snow. We have none. In fact today it rained. Makes me wonder what March will bring! Hope your week is going well. Thank you for your steady visits to my blog. I appreciate your friendship so much.
I love the soft turquoise in your kitchen - it is one of my all time favourite colours. So easy to live with. Lucky you to have a son who is a bricklayer. I like all the changes you are doing.

Hi Cindy, congrats on the Liebster Award from Karah - it's great to "meet" another Canadian blogger :-)
Your kitchen looks great - I can picture cooking and enjoying lots of wonderful meals there with family and friends :-)
Your kitchen looks fantastic! The color is warm and soft and makes your turquoise accessories pop. No wonder you are so happy! Your living room looks lovely too. I don't remember commenting on that one..? Wow since the New Year you almost have a new home :) Now after all of the beautiful comments from your fellow bloggers I hope you can still get your head thru that lovely kitchen's doorway to do some cooking!! They are a sweet group of ladies for sure! ~ Thanks for mentioning me :)

Oh, what a beautiful kitchen! I love the pale aqua. And your cabinets are dreamy! My kitchen is also turquoise, but not pale.
Very pretty! It's such a soft shade yet highlights your pretty cabinets!
I love it! Such a soft calming color! I just got a great mistint as well!
I love your whole kitchen and aqua is one of my favorite colors.

Your kitchen is one of my favorites in blogdom and I really love the new colour you found. What a deal that was! Beautiful!
Bye for now! Blessings, Pam
Oh my, oh mercy me!!! When you said you were using turquoise, I was imagining bright and to be honest, I was kinda cringing at the idea. LOL. Wow, was I wrong!! I absolutely love the pale, soft and subtle color. Cindy, dear, I can see why you have come to love it.
I can picture you walking down your lovely tree-lined street with the bit of snow.
Cindy- that is very subtle isn't it? I like it.
I can see why you've fallen in love with it...that little heart is sweet also.
I have made plenty of friends through blogging-- all of them wonderful people.
take care and have a great week.
Pat

Hi Cindy, how nice color! I congratulate the kitchen really looks great. With your details and turquoise touches others and is certainly one of the most beautiful colors! I loved that sign "open daily-til 6 'I found very funny! Greetings, Rose M.
WOW, Cindy, I Love your kitchen too! It is stunning! Have fun in the snow. We are having a thunderstorm right now, otherwise I'd be asleep! Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs
It's not cold at all - love the white cabinets, glass doors, and your beautiful silver and cloche (I have those obsessions too). The more tarnished, the better!
