Wow Us Wednesdays #8 and Sister's Home Tour Continues

 Welcome to Wow Us Wednesdays #8! Looking forward to what you have to share this week. First let's continue the tour of my sister's home.

I shared part of her home the other day and if you missed it you can see it here. Now let's take a look at the kitchen and dining rooms.


































 Thanks for taking a look and I will share how she made the burlap apron hanging on her fridge soon.

Now I want to see what you have been up to this week. You can wow us with anything. 

Party guidelines:
Post your intended post URL and not just your whole blog.
Please link back to the party. This way others can easily find it and join the fun, too.
Just saying linking to these parties here does not work here.
Try to visit some of the participants. You may find a couple of new blogs to follow.
If you are new here I hope you will become a follower through google friend connect on my sidebar.
Try not to post the same thing you did last week, please.

Come back later this week for a giveaway!

Ann from On Sutton Place said...

Hi Kim...your sister's home is lovely. You are lucky to have a sister...I don't have one but wish I did. Did she make the burlap towel with the numbers (I think probably her address)? I'd love to know how she did that. I'm linked up to your party and will visit some entries this week. Thanks for doing this. I know it takes a great deal of time.
~Ann

Wendy said...

Thank you for taking us on a tour. I love how she has used the color red, especially in the kitchen. The red cabinets with the white dishes...love it :)
Wendy

Kim @ Savvy Southern Style said...

Thanks

Hello Kim! Before anything else, I would like to thank you for following my blog. That made so happy for Wednesday. My blog rarely receive visits, comments and followers.

Be a sweetie,

Sheila said...

This is GORGEOUS, I totally love it, and I must get me one of those rooster cabinets. Tell your sister I am soooo jealous of her beautiful home.

Pamela said...

Kim where do you and your sister get your decorating bug from!? I get mine from my mom and she said my Nana would have been the same way as well if she was not so guarded with her money. Love your sisters home. You can tell y'all are related!:)

bj said...

Oh, Kim, I can't tell you how happy I am that your meme is such a success. :)

Thanks for showing us your sis's house ...it is awesome.
Mr. Sweet just brought in a big burlap coffee sack, much like hers and I am beside myself. I am going to hang it, just like she did. I hope mine looks as good.
Then, he also brought in another sack just like it with about 16 of the wooden shoe/boot lasts that is so popular right now. GOOD GRIEF, how much can an olden lady stand!!

Thanks so much for hosting this great party each week.

Love the green on her walls. The filled wire basket is fun and her topiaries are beautiful.

Andrea at Opulent Cottage said...

Such a wonderful kitchen! You just know that red open shelving made my heart go pitter-pat!

Rettabug said...

Well, its obvious that decorating is an inherited trait...its genetic! Your sister has the same great taste as you!

I'm coveting her beautiful champagne bucket...I want one!!!

Do you know if she painted her scale that dark color? I have my Mom's baby scale...pale blue...that weighed all 8 of her children. It looks exactly like your sisters, except for the color. Hmmmm....wheels turning here. LOL

I'm linking up a sm. sewing project, just so I can join the fun. Not much of a WOW factor but I wanna play with the big girls. ;-)

Thanks for sharing. Though i wont be linking up this week im gonna still mix and mingle, if thats ok.... Bonnie

Kim @ Savvy Southern Style said...

Bonnie, it is more the other way around. I am the big sister. ha ha
I wanted her to do a blog with me and I was going to call it Savvy Southern Sisters, but she didn't want to.

Thanks

Kim said...

Your sister's home is gorgeous as always Kim. I joined the party, but I cheated and used an old post. I hope that's okay. These days its hard for me to post every day like I would like to because of the baby. Have a great day!
xoxo,
Kim

Bonnie@Creative Decorating said...

I just wanted to stop by and say "hi"! I see you have been very busy since I was last here. The kitchen looks very "farmhouse" which I think is a look that you are really liking. It all looks great. Love the canvases!

Your sisters home is so interesting and glad you shared it. Hope all is well with you and the family. We are doing fine here. Starting to work on a few projects so maybe I will be back soon. Just not sure.

Have a great week!
