This is the second part of my kitchen decorating project. The first part of my project was creating a backsplash for my kitchen. I used my Cricut to cut words out of vinyl and placed them all along the backsplash. (See my 4/2/2013 Post)
I haven't found the material I want for the curtains yet but I did find the wall art I wanted. I bought this wall art at Walmart for $11. I thought it was a great price. I specifically bought it because I wanted the 3D spoon effect.
Nothing but a blank wall with a built in bench to start with:

Sorry it is not a better picture.
I have a cousin who many, many years ago had pewter plates against a red, white and blue plaid wallpaper that I just loved. I found my plates and platters on eBay. The plates weren't a bad price but the shipping prices for these heavy plates really increased the price!

I purchased disc hangars at my local Hobby Lobby for 1.99 or 2.99 for a 4 pound plate. It was a good thought but the discs do not adhere to the pewter. I will need to buy the wire plate holders for these. I checked on the plates often as I had them hung and luckily I did because the discs were coming off.
The two side plate holders will be removed once I have the pewter placed permanently.
<sigh>. Back to Hobby Lobby or Michaels for picture plate hangars. Still looking for material or curtains for the window and window seat (and pillows). Any thoughts?
