We've been doing a bit of renovating at Chez Casa de Brewgal. I've been wanting a little breakfast nook in the kitchen for a while, but the only space available was under my wall-mounted cabinet. For some strange reason, Brewguy objected to putting a table and chairs under a 50 pound cabinet filled with glassware.

So we moved it to the dining room.

I think it looks great. That left space for a table in the kitchen. It also revealed a hidden gem.

Original wallpaper, circa 1974. I had forgotten that we installed the cabinet where a shelf hung. The first owners had clearly put the shelf up over the wall paper, then removed all they could reach when the painted the wall.

Wow. Can you imagine the entire kitchen papered in this stuff?
