A CHEERY CLASSIC BREAKFAST NOOK & KITCHEN!

January 10, 2011
  • Share

Breakfast nook with large arched windows, blue graphic print curtains, a white table with carved base, wood chairs with yellow pvc seats and backs and nail head trim

Traditional doesn’t have to be stodgy. See this kitchen and breakfast nook…100%traditional but with a freshness that speaks modern.

I like this cheerful showhouse space composed talented San Francisco interior designer Palmer Weiss. Love the use of yellows and blues and white and brown. A nice combination.

Bright and happy and well appointed.

Ceasarstone counters combined with a Carrara marble subway tile backsplash in the kitchen just works…not to mention the great use of the graphic grey Ann Sacks mosaic tile on the stove backsplash!

I can imagine a family enjoying this space.

Kitchen with wood floor, Ceasarstone counters, Carrara marble subway tile backsplash, the mosaic tile backsplash behind the stove is by Ann Sacks.The kitchen has white cabinets and drawers, but the drawers on the island are dark wood

What do you think of this space? Anything you love? Anything you don’t?

Happy Monday!

    That wallpaper! It’s pretty crazy, but I think I like it. Good colors, which seem pretty unusual/unique for wallpaper.

    Loving the feel, it’s the perfect recipe for a cheery, happy space. The countertops, backsplash and stove backsplash tile are perfect compliments.

    Yes, the Ann Sacks backsplash above the range is the showstopper for me. I will admit that I would rather of seen a different color for the valance and drapes in the nook area, maybe something in yellow to play off the chairs or a fun bright green.

    I adore that little corner with the sink – there is something so European countryside about it!

    I have to say, I’m not so crazy about the Roman columns the potted plants are sitting on in the breakfast nook. They work with the room, but they are just simply not my taste.

    I was lucky enough to see this room in person and meet Palmer Weiss. She is super sweet and the room is beautiful! Love the yellow vinyl chairs and the Katie Ridder wallpaper.

    I love the tile over the stove, the lights over the island, and the countertops. I do not like the wallpaper or the drapery fabric.

    Seriously? This is a showhouse? Not sure why they were trying to go for the vintage look; even the chairs in the breakfast nook were something that immediately reminded me of when I was little in the early ’70s and there’s no need to address the wallpaper. Is this for a retirement community? The lighting, the cabinetry, even the extremely boxy, extremely dark island.

    Two thumbs down.

    Most of my clients love the traditional style, and it’s fun to see how traditional can be punched up a bit. I love so much of what Palmer Weiss does…she’s pretty genius. Loved this home!

    I liked the cool organized look and the white and dark cherry looked good together. Yet, I would have desired to observe some character from some traditional design.

    I love the kitchen, very bright and beautiful combination. The wallpaper, well, not my thing but the colors are great -I am just not too much into wallpaper, I like paint because you can switch colors easier, change is my best friend!

    The yellow chairs are just so chic and updated feeling… Love them! And although the wallpaper, by itself, would not seem like an ideal choice for this kitchen, it really does work when you look at the space, as a whole! I give it two thumbs up!

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
