Some people have all the luck.
My kitchen remodel is taking forever. In the meantime, look at this kitchen before and after!
Catherine from Cat on a Limb found this vintage children’s kitchen for $5 on Craig’s List.
Before:
Now it’s a fun one-of-a-kind country kitchen…
Super cute! Even cuter are the proud new owners. See them and the cost breakdown of how that $5 find and less than $28 transformed at her country children’s kitchen makeover.
Then, just as my seasonal affective disorder is about to get the best of me (so much snow and cold, short days and did I mention cold?), I see a hint of spring!
Using Target’s version as inspiration,
Catherine created her own !
Cute “centerpiece, chandelier or mobile”. See the tutorial and get the bird template: Paper, String and Branches.
Catherine – both projects are adorable! You did a fantastic job! Thank you so much for sharing your creativity!

Speaking of “Cat”…we’re getting one! 🙂 I miss Niski so much. I work from home and days are just too quiet and lonely. I’m used to having company. Russ has an office cat so he’s a little more confident but I appreciate any feline parent advice.
Enjoy the weekend!
Ooooo! She did such a great job. Thanks for sharing. I can't believe she got it for $5.00! I need to start looking for deals like that!
Wow, she really made this look amazing!!!
have fun getting a new cat! 🙂 i am sure it will be very warm and snuggly!
and these transformations are fabulous!
I just adopted a puppy 2 weeks ago and let me tell you- it makes me love my cats so much more.
Cats are so EASY! They take care of themselves and are there when you need love. They will calm you down, can make a stressful moment peaceful, and will make you laugh endlessly when they get frisky.
You won't remember how you lived without them!
But PLEASE make sure you adopt and don't buy! Every SCPA has wonderful kitties that need someone to take them home and love them.
I LOVE the "new" kitchen!!! Adorable idea!
I love cats. Many people have tried to tell me that cats just aren't as friendly/affectionate/people-loving as dogs, but I haven't found that to be true at all. They're different, but make just as wonderful pets. I hope you'll find just the right one.
I love that bird mobile! It's so pretty and would be perfect in a baby's room.
Yay for the new cat! I hope you'll be posting pics! Having a new pet in the house is the best way to move past a loss. You'll never forget your old family pets, but it helps to have a new animal to hang out with when you need some love.
As somebody who volunteers at an animal shelter, I greatly encourage you to adopt a rescue, especially a black cat, as they are often ignored because of silly superstitions. As the owner of a black cat, I can attest how loving and friendly they are!
I hope you post pics!
a kitty cat, how exciting! pictures of course!
