The stove began as a challenge but then when I got over my worst fears about making one, it actually proved to be a whole lot of fun!

I have just recently started following Fatima's work and while she is an incredible artist, I must say I hope you never change because you are a master at what you do. the stove ins fantastic and incredibly well done. Many people use directions and tutorials to make beautiful, well made items, but none can touch you in terms of character and style. Wonderful work and the kitchen is spectacular.<br />big hug,<br />GiacGiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823654482564548862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-68476692010052199362014-04-21T07:58:19.484-07:002014-04-21T07:58:19.484-07:00Hello Elizabeth,

I am so glad that you approve my "vintage" looking stove and Yes, it certainly is Very Well-loved"! :D It was heaps of fun to make something new and then erase as much of the newness out in order to add some history to it. <br /> I am glad that you like the wooden post. I think that was what turned the corner for me after I installed it. It gave some needed definition to the stairs and to the working part of the kitchen, as well as some additional display area, AND supported the floor above! I wish you well in trying to decide on your railing options, Lindsey. There is so much to choose from and so I know the dilemma that you must be feeling now, but I look forward to soon seeing your final choice. Thanks for your comment and for your lovely compliment! :))<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-17888145595758044582014-04-13T17:37:53.832-07:002014-04-13T17:37:53.832-07:00Thanks Fats! :D Seem that I Need to roll out the ...Thanks Fats! :D Seem that I Need to roll out the "Welcome Ma"t again!

The stairs turned out great as well. I know all about mismeasuring and cutting before double checking my measurements, haha. :) Love the wooden beam. I may have to add one of those to my staircase.

I am so glad to hear from one of my favorite people; Thank You dear friend for your comment! :)) <br />The stairs Are what they Are, but I did construct them that way with the express purpose of making them fit the rest of the house and most especially the kitchen. I Really Enjoyed making the stove but it wasn't until I got the shelves and the accessories up that the stove finally came into its own. I am glad that you like it and that you were able to get those 2 books by Patricia King. Good for you Lucille! I know that there is a wealth of information in both of them even if you just use them as jumping off points which is what I did. Making the kitchen HAS proved to be Very "challenging" but those books helped out a lot!.<br /> Thanks for mentioning the photos and equating them to that of an old painting; that is such a Great Compliment 'cause taking these photos was a bit tricky due of the lack of light. The grainy effect evoked such an interesting atmosphere that I decided to just go with it. <br /> I'm glad that you like it too!:D <br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-27593864431818542012014-04-09T18:28:53.212-07:002014-04-09T18:28:53.212-07:00Elizabeth, your stove is a piece of art and your s...Elizabeth, your stove is a piece of art and your stairs are just right for the look you want! They must have been so challenging to make! I have those two books you show. I got them after you mentioned them in another post! I love how you have put everything together around the stove. It looks like an old painting! I look forward to seeing how you will put together the other part of the kitchen!

It would be a waste of time to make a kitchen that looked too new when the walls of the kitchen and the stairs were already leaning in a different direction. On the other hand, I didn't want it to look so old that there would be no good reason to want to cook in that space! Trying to achieve a balance of just enough age denoting a well-loved piece of equipment was how I wished it to be..... and this is the result!<br />Thank You for your comment Anda, I loved it!! :D<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-19262565297965481272014-04-08T17:51:10.113-07:002014-04-08T17:51:10.113-07:00Hello Angels!

Thank You for your lovely compliment about the adaptation of the stove from Patricia King's book. I am glad to hear that you also are a Big Fan of hers as well as I. I love her ideas and how nothing is too hard for her to tackle and to try and make herself. Her book is very inspiring to me and I hope it will be for others, also! :))<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-88836947647007336402014-04-08T11:12:51.133-07:002014-04-08T11:12:51.133-07:00This is wonderful!

Somewhere down the pike, I think that I would like to try and make another with a different kind of theme. As you have mentioned the shots are all dark and moody and to me it is indicative of what I seem to associate with "Victorian- style", but I would someday like to try something lighter and airier. It would be a challenge I think to step "outside" my box!<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449505618824942041.post-73149207587595739922014-04-07T14:12:01.890-07:002014-04-07T14:12:01.890-07:00Hi Kikka!

Thank You for your comment and your compliment about the atmosphere in the kitchen.

Thank you Very Much for your comment! :)) One of the reasons that I began following your blog is that I saw that we had a lot in common. :D <br />I Do love hand-made items but commercial ones are also alright with me. What I like to do, is to customize them to suit, and as you can probably tell, that usually means making them look "Old" as well as "lived in". I think that you can read the character of the occupant by what you can see is being used. And if it is used, it is probably going to look like it after a while. Therefore, I always seem to have rather tatty spaces. <br /> And Tatty ALWAYS makes me Happy! :D<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.com
