My 70's Apartment...the Kitchen

And now back to our regularly scheduled distractions...

In my attempts to distract you once again from my Xmas knitting, I once again reveal way too much of my personal life. Ok, here we go.

Get ready for a blast from the past folks...time to WOW you with my 'retro' apartment decor.

Retro style is 'in' right? Riiiiigghhtttt?!? Oh nevermind.

The "Mod" kitchen cabinets...






...not too bad, I think they are selling stuff like this at IKEA, right? Check out the vent-a-hood. Lovely shade of green that goes with...

The Original 70's stove...




...I like green, but please - not on appliances.

It goes so well with the new fridge...




And That 80's dishwasher...




Oh! And the Formica! Just ties it all together, don't you think?





That's sarcasm folks.

At least the floor is 'new'...




...circa 1999.

Sometimes I just wanna put on some platforms and strut around the place. Instead of the platforms (cause you know I would fall and break something) I added this...





A genuine reproduction KitCat Clock. The tail goes back and forth and so do the eyes. It's taking in the scenery. I can hear what it thinks... "Tick Tock Tick Tock...is that stove really green? Tick Tock Tick Tock...I can't believe it's green. Tick Tock Tick Tock...Holy Crap! The stove is green!"

I don't even notice it anymore. Seriously. I don't.

    First time I've seen that clock was in the game Zak McKracken, didn't know it really exists.

  3. I stumbled across your site today. I borrowed your pick of the avocado stove on my blog. I hope you don't mind. I lived with more than one of those in my renting days.
