I mentioned in my last post that I was going to show you something I made, just a little craft but I think it’s the little things that make a home don’t you? I had a few of these tags that I ordered off of Etsy a couple years ago and after looking at the baskets there I decided to paint the tags with chalkboard paint and tie them on!
They were just to blah for me!
I couldn’t decide what to write on them so I went with the alphabet since my canisters on the counter have 1 2 3 on them.
My youngest son was here and I asked him what I should write on them and he looked at me and said “ridiculous” so much for his opinion…men!
I would like to get taller baskets for here but so far I haven’t found any I like or maybe some wire ones would do.
Such a little thing to do but had a major impact I think.
While I’m showing you my kitchen I’d like to show you what makes life a little easier for me, my new Oyster 4 slice toaster even has a setting where you can warm up your toast you have already toasted!
My youngest son bought me this brew station for Christmas and I love it, it’s my last gift from him at Best Buy, after 12 years with the company he left and is now a manager at a bank, I’m happy for him, I think the grueling retail schedule finally got to him, realizing that he needed his life back.
Well it’s Super Bowl Sunday and although I’m a Steeler fan I’d like to see the Giants win this one, were having wings tonight! Are you celebrating the game tonight? I’ll mostly be watching the commercials. LOL

I love your little tags...and they look very sweet on your baskets. It is the little things that add character, isn't it? Love your new toaster..and good for you son for taking a new job. Retail IS grueling. xo Diana
I like the added tags. They probably add more that stenciling would have. Lucky your son got that banking job. My husband is a banker and he has to keep downsizing due to the economy.
My friend just took the doors off her cabinet too! I like that look, and I like your baskets. I'd probably have them filled with cookbooks or something. The tags are a nice touch!
I'm your newest follower!
Be blessed!

Love your little tags. So cute. I have the same toaster, except mine is a two-slicer. Wish I had the four-slicer!
P.S. I am now a follower. Hope you'll visit me, too!
I love the tags...very cute and add a lot to the baskets. Have you thought of stacking them to give it some height? Just a thought!
XO,

It is the little things Rondell. Those look really cute. Love your coffee maker, nothing like a hot cup of JOE in a second.
Looks great! Love how it breaks up all the white cabinets. and the tags are adorable. Thanks for sharing, liz
Those tags are great! Don't you love when something small like that makes such a big difference?
I did have to giggle at your son's comment. I swear those words would have come out of my husband's mouth if I asked him the same question! lol
You are absolutely right - little changes can make a big impact. The tags really dress up the baskets!
Thanks for sharing at A Simply Klassic Home!
