New Window Stuff

We finally put the finishing touches on our kitchen window by adding a shelf and valance.  The forged iron shelf brackets are from etsy (ArtisansoftheAnvil) and I sewed the valance from some of the 20 yards of fabric that I found at a Scandinavian warehouse sale.  The shelf has some of our Scandianvian pottery - a Figgjo Clupea soup tureen, Figgjo tea set in the Astrid pattern, Stavangerflint teapot in the Flamingo Bambus pattern, and the Stavangerflint Norrøna coffee set.  I cut and installed the glass tiles on the wall (only one wall has tile up to the ceiling - the others are cabinet-height).
