The Kitchen Table Is Key...
I find great joy in simple pleasures;
The other day I cleaned off my kitchen table and then polished it till it shined!
Then I put on a fresh table cloth and a lace topper over the tablecloth.
It feels really good to see it all cleaned off and ready for another week
of meals being served. Or a cup of coffee being enjoyed with a loved one.
Place a bowl of fruit or a snack to draw them to the table!
A plate of cookies;
Cheese and crackers
Serving a meal cooked with love at your own hearth...
When the children were little we did our school work on our kitchen table.
Now I even do a little bit of studying myself.
We might read the paper through the week there also.
We pray often at our kitchen table!
Memories are made in this very place!
Your Kitchen and Table should be the welcoming spot in your home!
Keep it clean and tidy and always pleasing to the eye.
Keep napkins in the center with some fresh spices for any dish.
Sea salt, pepper, cayenne powder and hot sauce.
There is something so comforting about a kitchen!
It Is The Heart Of The Home...
Making your home cozy and welcoming is an art!
If you can keep only one spot in your home orderly and clean;
The kitchen and kitchen table is what I would suggest to you.
You can take a very worn table and chairs and paint them and recover the chairs,
To give them a new fresh appeal!
You can find table coverings for very cheap and some great linen finds also.
Check out your thrift stores.
Also, you can find wooden table centerpieces and spray paint them.
I did this a few years ago and it was so lovely.
Everything can be an added pretty!
You can find very inexpensive place mats in a thrift store.
Or look at your store clearance sections for seasonal items.
I would watch using a plastic cloth with those backings as they can stick to your wood table tops. But if it is a glass or Formica then it would be okay.
It is also very nice to change out the colors and decor for the holidays.
Sometimes when I am not even sure what I am making for dinner,
I will set the table to get myself inspired.
Please encourage yourself today and get inspired!
Look in your drawers and find what you might have to use!
Practice serving your meals and snacks at the table.
Get into the habit of keeping it clean and welcoming!
Use what God has given you!
Keep your heart alive with simple home, keeping routines!
Every meal can be a time to come together as a family
