Ah, the kitchen...In this case, these pictures really are worth my thousand words. From the orange and yellow floral wallpaper and the stunning valances to the appliances and drop ceiling with plastic panels (I think there are 4 different types!) with buzzing fluorescent lights, this kitchen is a world of wrong in a small space.
Don't forget to take in the burnt orange carpeting - yes, carpet in the kitchen. If the refrigerator looks kind of small, well, it does only measure about 4' tall. We are pretty sure the 40 year old oven has almost never been used as it's shiny clean inside and still has all the attachments. The part that I (really) do love is the copper tiling on the back splashes and I'm thinking any redo will have to retain or reuse them. Unfortunately, it's going to be this way for quite a while. It's pretty far down on my list of things to get done in this house. I'm hoping that a stopgap measure of removing the nausea-inducing wallpaper will hold me for the time being.

I heart that you are going to fix this kitchen.
you gotta show a close-up shot of the wallpaper on your blog. that way you'll have a before and after
this kitchen is hilarious - I swear its straight out of a movie set!
You know me - I love it :) minus the carpet
do you feel like your kitchen is a time machine?
Gads....it is ghastly. Yeah, definitely get rid of the wallpaper to tide you over. That alone will help tremendously. I'm with you....that backsplash is the bomb! Glad you're going to keep that.
ummmm I'm not going to lie it is very much out of "that 70's show" but is it wrong that I am kinda digging the wallpaper! lol
I mean change WILL be good but it's kinda fun to look at!
thanks for linking up to my party!
xoxo
