Breakfast nook: window to the left covered in colorfully striped curtains, window in front covered in hot pink curtains that the morning sun is shining through and turning everything a pinkish red. Along the left wall is the corner of a butcher block, an old 70s kitchen chair, a bookshelf with plants on top, and a 1956 pink Frigidaire range. Along the back wall is a small 1950s formica table also covered in plants, and to the right is a counter that separates the breakfast nook from the kitchen. There’s a full wall that extends the width of two cabinets. There are three bar stools along the counter, with open cabinets underneath. The hanging light is a large old slag glass tulip light, every petal is a different color (and it matches the striped curtains, which was why we bought the light). The floor is an ugly cheap ass white ceramic tile that destroys anything that a klutz like me drops on it and I hate it. But it reflects the pink-red curtain filtered morning sunlight beautifully, I’ll give it that.
You know the thing about rose colored glasses? 1. It’s true, everything does look nicer with them on (had a pair of pink-lensed sunglasses in 1998). 2. Hot pink drapes on east facing windows make for happier mornings. #nofilter #seealttext #whiteroomssuck #thanksgivingisalie #historywaswhitewashed
