{ DIY Cottage Style Kitchen Wall Decor }

Happy Monday,friends!! Thanks for dropping back in on TQS, I hope your weekend was special or just downright cozy & relaxing. Ours wasn't anything fancy, we actually just rested & stayed in much of the weekend other than eating some Chinese Sunday & finishing a little project in the kitchen that kind of just fell together ...which is a going theme here on TQS haha but I guess that's what makes me a practical home blogger right?! I've been talking about this "newly" styled/projects in our kitchen for a few weeks now & after attempting a project I schemed up in my head it was just TOO much!!! Back to the drawing board & voila at 11pm on Saturday night after feeding the dogs & rabbit { we're night owls ha } I decided to add these little hooks & the aprons to the wall & scratch the other idea. I''ll get to that other idea in another blog post but lets just say frames can be tricky to work with...eeeek! Anyways come take a peek at this SUPER almost too simple DIY kitchen wall decor!!
Note: I'm sooo sorry these pictures are a bit dark..It's been super gloomy/foggy here in Michigan. 


This wall is soo beat up with so many holes, paint chips etc..more on that later too. For now I wanted something simple & fresh for spring so I added these 3 silver hooks, 2 aprons & kept the vintage decals & basket of greenery.  
*See original kitchen post before DIY H E R E



These hooks were originally behind the hutch behind this picture & were serving no purpose whatsoever because you couldn't even get to them..Why have them you ask?? Because they serve a wonderful memory to me!!! They were purchased up at my gram & gramps old cottage turned home. Mark & I bought them in a little shop up in town in summer of 2008 after we had purchased our first home which was our condo!!! The white apron was also my great grandpa's so I had to display it as well!


What I did...

I staggered them purposely to cover some not so pretty dings etc..& they just so happen to fit perfectly. I then hung the decals from them & then the aprons on the front of the hooks...SUPER simple & fresh!!!



What do you think of this super quick & simple fix until I execute the "real" project? I'm loving the cozy spring cottage appeal but  also the simplicity of this space!! What do you think?


Happy Monday!!
