    Years ago, I painted my cabinet doors white and then painted ivy on them as if it were vining around the room. Of course the doors had to be painted too. Inside of the cupboards are carnations and ribbons framing family recipes.

    Then I saw fabric microwave bowls on the board here. Now I have table runners and many fabric microwave bowls to match my cupboards. My husband loves the bowls and uses them all the time.

    Sorry it is sideways

    A gracious thank you to the people who posted their bowls and gave me the idea.

    So pretty! You are very talented. I have been off the board the past couple of weeks so I missed the fabric microwave bowls. Will have to check it out. Love your painted ivy, it looks so real.

    What is funny is that I didn't know how to paint at that time. I didn't do strokes, I sort of smushed (technical term) the paint into the leaves. I did put an outline for every leaf. It would look so different if I did it now. It is a cheerful kitchen with the white and the painting.
