Fall is definitely in full swing at my house right now, but after taking most the summer off from blogging I realized I never showed you my updated kitchen sink area!
A new sign, cafe curtains, and an updated faucet is just what the space needed!
I worked on several little projects around the house this summer and updating this area was high on my list. Before I always felt like this area was lacking something and just needed a little more to spruce it up! Here is a before shot.
I love lots of natural light so I did not want to add blinds or shutters to this window to loose my light. I figured cafe curtains would be the perfect choice since they are mostly for the decor aspect and I don’t really need to use them. Of course they can still be closed if needed. I decided to make them myself so they would not have any extra added bulk. I ordered white bleached muslin fabric from Amazon along with the curtain rod and curtain clips. Cafe curtains can be expensive so I was able to save a lot just doing it myself. I used the no-sew iron on hemming tape from Ikea for the sides, and I hand stitched the top and bottom so they would fold together better when the curtains are pushed to the sides. Of course if you have a sewing machine that would work even better!
When we built our house we just took a very basic faucet from the builder because they were charging so much for the upgrade. We knew that we would soon want to replace it with something else. This faucet was found on Amazon for a very affordable price and we have loved it so far!
Then to fill in the space above the sink I knew a sign would be perfect! I love the farmhouse charm of this Farm Fresh sign and it think it added the perfect touch!
I hope you enjoyed my little kitchen sink update!
