I've been s.l.o.w.l.y working on my kitchen redo. It's only taken about a year and a half! *face palm* I'm getting there though! All we've really got left to do is trim work, and install a new countertop, sink and backsplash. Piece of cake. :/ What we did get accomplished, however, is installing some barn wood shelves on a big blank wall above the stove. We bought some unfinished brackets from Home Depot that I stained and painted and used some barn wood boards I got from my mom for the shelves! They prove to be the perfect spot for my rapidly growing ironstone collection! I just love the creamy white of the ironstone against the dark barn wood!! I don't mind that the barn wood was not quite as wide as the bracket, but my husband the perfectionist wants to add another small piece of barn wood to make it flush to the end. Stained, painted and distressed brackets One project down, only a few more to go until my grand kitchen reveal!! P.S.
