Country Kitchen Rule Three: Open Shelving

Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats. 

The Country Kitchen show is about to begin.

 I give you....

{drum roll}

......open shelving.....

Now, down to the nitty-gritty. 

Let's be frank.

Reason number one 

why I like open shelving 

is that it makes it all the easier to 

nose around people's kitchens in gorgeous homes. 

But let's leave my stalking tendencies to one side 

for the sake of decency, shall we?

Reason number two, and, granted, 

perhaps slightly more important than any nosiness value, 

{if such a thing is possible}

is that they provide storage in a way that leaves 

the room feeling less closed in.

 I love 'em and had to get me some in our kitchen. 

More of that next week.

But tomorrow?

I fancy a little bitta denim.....

I'm very excited about the Spode giveaway. 

Have you entered yet?

Check it out here, if you haven't....it's LUSH!
