The kitchen wallpaper is up - sort of!

Well the wallpapering in the kitchen is half done. I had it cut before I realised the match and now need to print some more but the printer  is rather overworked this week so that is to come. I have blu tacked the second sheet into place to show the effect and how it is coming on. This is another paper from Jennifer's Printables.

I have used the Shabby Chic sink I made from the blank kit in the meantime. The oven unit is one from The Dolls House Emporium but purchased on ebay. I have also bought the matching island unit ( also ebay) and am keeping an eye out for the matching sink. My original intention was to paint them white in Shabby Chic style but they are such nice wood I can't bring myself to do that at the moment. They are lovely - and all the little doors open making the perfect excuse for buying more fruit and vegetables.
I am still trying to find the perfect position for the island unit. What do you think?
Sorry for the quality of the photos - a very dull and wet morning here today. In fact a very dull wet day - where is the sun?

I also reworked a little sewing box by painting it with blue nail varnish - the material did not seem to be wood so paint wouldn't stick to it. I finished by adding paper in Cath Kidston print to the bottom and lid. The little bits and pieces in the box are fixed so I decided in this instance not to try to take them out. I am debating whether to add flowers to the top and sides - maybe not.

My next target is to make up the bed with the bedclothes at the weekend.

 I am also waiting for some more blank wood pieces of furniture to arrive so I have something to paint.
