kitchen runner

I popped into Target yesterday while I was waiting to go to my daughter's school and stumbled upon this runner.  I love Target's Threshold brand for home decor.  I was thinking that I wanted a natural fiber runner for this spot, but I'm really loving this yellow and gray striped one.  I love yellow accents in a kitchen, especially a white kitchen.  So, yellow and gray combo + stripes = this one jumping into my basket!  And it's machine washable!!  Because the rug is between my sink and stove, and in a spot that gets lots of drips, being able to wash it will be great!  I'm thinking it's a keeper and I may even go and buy a second one to put in the closet after this one wears out.

 

 

 I love new little accents like this runner. Do you get excited about little things like this?

We also got our cabinet hardware delivered this week and we hope to get those installed this weekend so I can share with you next week. And I've been hunting around for lighting above the island, and I've found several I like, but may need some help from you guys before I pull the trigger on that purchase. Hope you'll come back and check out our kitchen progress next week!

Have a great day!
