Our kitchen has a new addition. Hung perfectly on the wall right over the completely useless phone jack. It’s not just pretty, it’s utilitarian. And I love it to death.
You’ve seen this cupcake before, you say? Why yes! They’re the adorably delicious cherry-filled almond cupcakes from two years ago, interpreted in painting form by Indiana artist Sarah Wain.
Sarah contacted me a few months ago asking to use some of my dessert photos in her paintings. And if you’ve seen her paintings, it is obvious Sarah has a sweet tooth just like I do. She is one talented lady, able to capture the texture of cake and buttercream with paint on canvas. I was honored that she wanted to use my images and even more thrilled when she offered to send me a print of the final product.
The original painting is large and gorgeous, a whopping 24×36″. If I had a bigger wall in my kitchen I just might have to buy it. But for now, the print will have to do.
I know the contest is over, but I just wanted to say that I love your pan hanger and the use of a mason jar as a vase. Lovely!
My walls are bare in my kitchen and they meed something ASAP! ;)
I’ve been collecting fruit crate labels for about 20 years and they pretty much take up every free space on my very small kitchen walls :)
Oh I’m also a fan on facebook and twitter, and I RT’d =)
Only thing on my kitchen walls is a calender and key hook. Pretty dismal lol. I’d love to add more color in my kitchen, walls and accessories included. =)
I am a fan of Love & Olive Oil also…

Beautiful paintings, I have loved Sarah’s artwork ever since I started talking to her sis – Ali @ Gimmesomeoven about those “really-cool-cupcake-paintings-I-keep-seeing-around”! Lovely! My dream kitchen would start with having a bigger one! I would decorate it with art & a nice wine rack!

What a cool idea! And a gorgeous cupcake. My kitchen is tiny, but I have one wall ver small wall above my backsplash that has been begging for some art for about 2 years now!

I seriously have a dartboard on my wall. I would like to have cabinets all over!
I have my dream kitchen… and on my walls are my Mother’s plate and teacup collections… My mother taught me to cook and this way I think of her every time I’m in the kitchen…

I have a print from Peju winery on one wall in my kitchen
The biggest thing for me with kitchen walls is that I want light and color – but I’m flexible as to what that could be…
I also tweeted the giveaway. @splemonade
Sadly my husband and I move so much due to his job that the last few places we have lived I haven’t put anything on my kitchen walls. But if I won this print it would definitely be going up in our new house that we are moving into next month! :)
Right now the walls of my kitchen are coated with the chunky leftovers of a wild day of canning cream-style corm. The lovely yellow is accented by dabs & splatters of a charming Balsamic Berry Jelly (or maybe sauce) that I whipped up.
My dream kitchen would have a full canning pantry wall. Eight-inch deep shelves from floor to ceiling with ventilate4d doors to protect my precious goods. Ahhhh…dreams….

My kitchen walls are bare, but my favorite decoration is my handblown glass peach.
I’d love more food related art.
Our home is open concept, so there’s not too much wall space in our kitchen. We have a bulletin board on one wall and cute wicker baskets on top of the cabinets. :)
OMG I am actually in the process of decorating my kitchen in CUPCAKES!! This would be perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
Thanks for the chance to win! I'm about to retweet :) @aduranbrooks
