Happy Valentines Day

Every Year (this being the second year) I make a pink strawberry cake.  This year I made two.  One for the family and a whole one for me.  Please keep your judgements to yourself.
                                   Yes that is a bulldog mini cake baking in the lower rack. 

One perfect pink cake.....................



In the spirit of the holiday I thought you might like to see some before and afters of a pink bedroom I did for a very nice lady a couple years ago.

Before
When I met the owner of this room she had already been testing pinks on her wall.  She did not realize the colors she choose were in fact not pink at all but mauve. yuk.  She wanted a place to read in this space, so we built her some custom shelves that helped create symmetry in the room (see the windows by the bed, they made the room seem awkward) The shelves create balance and storage!

I  recovered (and tufted) the ottoman and the Hollywood regency chair in pink as well. She was pleased with how her pink room turned out.  I must say looking back on it...... so am I.

Happy Valentine's.  
Kitchen Cabinet update coming soon!!!
