Our kitchen is outdated and ugly. But instead of spending $20,000 dollars on updating it, I figure I’d continue to keep up my addiction to Ruelala and other fun shopping websites. All jokes aside- we don’t plan on doing anything to this kitchen until the spring. So FINALLY I got to make a fun little weekend project based on my love for awkwardly bright colors.
Since its a temporary thing, hubs did not object when I picked out the paint color, Pink Salmon.. and went with Behr-all-in-one-paint-and-primer again, since it makes painting so much easier!
This only took one day, and all I had to do was:
- rip down the ugly wall paper
- wash the walls with warm water & soap to clean off the glue residue
- paint 2 coats
- persuade hubs into hanging up a few cute items
The funny thing is- most of the people who’ve visited our place since I painted it thought it was like that already!!
FINALLY. I got to pick a paint color all by myself. Although I did have a Hot Pink paint swatch in my hand for the Hallway, hubs said ‘Hey, check this one out, the name is Sweet Juliet’. And that was that. Done.
Not too much needed for this makeover, other than some Paint (Behr-Paint-and-Primer-in-One), White Outlet fixtures, Crisp White Paint for the trim and doors, New Knobs, and a new light fixture.
