Great layout and beautiful touches! I redid a kitchen years ago - much simpler - but really anything that wasn't cookie cutter standard threw the guys off. It was as if you were speaking in a foreign language to them. Enjoy it!SAKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12897399135827762683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-52875070217057030922016-09-11T09:21:16.213-07:002016-09-11T09:21:16.213-07:00I love what you did with the kitchen!

Maybe bravery? It is not Royalty. That would be a Count. In Sweden a Title is Vital. You are listed in the phone book by what you do not by you name. Very snobbish society. The big house was sold I believe in 93 and a container was sent over. Much was donated, most of the furniture was too large for a regular house. Where does one put a suit of armor? The dishes were divvied up amongst the girls and much was left with relatives over there. Dad died 8 years ago this October. I was with him alone in the house, I told him to go, he was so sick and Hedvig( sister) was waiting for him. He looked me straight in the eye then looked at the corner of the family room, he smiled a huge smile like he recognized someone. There was excitement in his eyes and he was gone. A very special moment. My biological father had a large estate in Kranztville. We are dairy men by linage.

You ...Wow, you are descended from Swedish royalty! You should share more about it on your blog. It's sounds very interesting. Did your father go back to Sweden in order to ship a lot of the family treasures to the States? Those flow blue dishes are such a treasure. How long has your father been gone?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13392594186592633707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-20390640098006532072016-09-10T20:03:00.082-07:002016-09-10T20:03:00.082-07:00It was a Barony and it was my father's. Chris...It was a Barony and it was my father's. Christenlund or Crystal lake. Complete with lake. Huge dairy estate. The family lost it after the war. Just too expensive to hold on to. Da came over to get his Master's at Berkley and never went back permanently, revoked his title and took American citizenship. He was very patriotic and never regretted leaving Sweden. He missed it but thought America was the greatest. He was a lovely man. The big house had 16 bedrooms but no bathrooms until after the war. I have a very interesting family in many ways.Out My windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456481267171643227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-11637450427319459512016-09-10T14:09:36.458-07:002016-09-10T14:09:36.458-07:00Oh, it's gorgeous!

Was this the home of your grandparents or other family? And why did they need 160 place settings of the dishes? Were they wealthy people who entertained a great deal?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13392594186592633707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-86799544468563604192016-09-10T12:40:30.431-07:002016-09-10T12:40:30.431-07:00Gorgeous.

My kitchen counter is held together by masking tape and the cabinet doors aren't holding on at all :) A remodel is the first thing on my list when we knock off enough debt.
