Completed Summer Kitchen, Restored Pieces and Decorating

The Summer Kitchen is complete! The photo at the top is how we hide the air conditioner inside a biscuit box. With the top and doors closed, it is completely hidden. We use the biscuit box as a bedside table. It was originally painted a sort of dark green color, the top was warped and unprotected with a sharpening tool bolted to it. We removed the tool that was mounted to a board, painted it and hung it on the wall as decoration. Then I cleaned up the box, and painted it a sort of burgundy color. The construction crew adapted it to accommodate the a/c, placed the water drain pipe through the wall to the outside (hardly detectable and it waters the flowers) and air duct under the floor. It works very well. The next photo is the restored washing machine. David Travis did this and it looks great! Next is the wall with the restored cauldron paddles, and scoops that I adapted to be sconces with flameless candles in them. The "candles" are remote controlled and look just like flame candles without the fire risk! Then...The Summer Kitchen from the chimney end and the front. just perfect! Thanks to the David Travis crew for making this possible and to Andy Tate for making it financially possible!!!!
