A few kitchen details

Just a few little kitchen details to share. Yes, there are a few more things we need to do before we can declare it completely done and worthy of taking before and after shots. After this weekend, we'll have some time to finish it up. I'm hoping by April? Can you tell we've gotten lazy about it?

First, my awesome bar and S hooks from Ikea. The layout of utensils is a bit of a work in progress, but I'm loving getting that old utensil caddy off the counter. Now there's more room for Chester's little food container. And it's not cluttered. I love that part.
Sadly, most of our stainless steel utensils don't have hooks on the top of them. They would look so pretty...

(Why yes, I need to do some touch up painting. That little grey spot was my paint sample when I thought I would be repainting the kicthen. The gross brown is what color our kitchen was before we moved in. Ish.)

Next is the little sponge holder I picked up at Ikea. Undermount sinks are tricky - there's no spot to hold your sponge!

 

 Last is the lovely "new kitchen" gift from Curt and Robin. Aren't the colors perfect? So pretty!

That is all
