Its the little things that turn a house into a home isn't it? And we're slowly getting there with the house, room by room. The kitchen has been fully painted for a while, but it was only yesterday that we got round to putting up some finishing touches. The utensil holder actually got put up on the kitchen wall, and I bought a whiteboard (to write things down when they run out as it is inevitable that when I get to the supermarket I won't remember!) for the other wall, which went up this morning. So all we need for the kitchen now, is a blind (which I ordered online yesterday - another tick on the list!) and to give the ceiling another coat of paint, and its finished. Unless you include the fact that the cupboards need a complete reorganisation (but I think that can wait for another weekend) as when I moved in with M I brought all my uni crockery with me and now we're just not making best use of the space.
Here are pictures...
Yesterday I also ordered a blind for the downstairs loo, its been on my things to do list forever too. Do you know how difficult it is to find a roman blind in purple (to match my towels of course!) ready made with the weird dimensions of our windows??? I was there all afternoon looking in the internet! Anyway, I found a plain one which I'm going to snazz up a bit with some crystals.
I hope everyone is having a lovely Easter. Mum and I went to Speke Hall today and had a fab day in the sun. I'll be back with photos tomorrow :)

Sounds like you have been very productive. Well done for getting some things finished. Happy Easter.
A purple crystally blind sounds very exciting! I'd like to see a picture of that..
