1940’s Kitchen This suburban kitchen dates from the late 1940’s. The area is small and compact with gas and electrical appliances, a free-standing cupboard and pantry. The electric cooker is a 1935 model and was rented from York City Electricity Department. It was quite common to rent larger domestic appliances, as they were expensive to buy. The kitchen cupboard has a display cabinet at the top, a cutlery draw, a drop-down work surface with storage space, and an enclosed cupboard at the bottom. This convenient storage space saved time walking to the pantry for every pot, pan, plate and cooking ingredient in regular use. The pantry houses a range of convenience foods, which were beginning to become more widely available after the Second World War. Food rationing was still in operation. It ended in 1954.
This 1906 Craftsman house in Los Angeles got a kitchen remodel, but instead of stripping away ALL the vintage charm, they refreshed the space and honored previous eras.

February 1st I hosted a Galentine Craft Party for friends! I thought you might like to see the pics! Let's start at the end. This is the finished product! Buffalo checked trays/lazy susans. We gathered in the craft room for some sangria and nibbles and got down to it! We measured, we taped, we painted While our creations were drying we went into the house to sup on a Jane Austen inspired dinner Salmon Nicosia anyone?
