A too-long while ago I told you about how in one weekend Hub and I turned our tiny little home into Project City. One of our projects was painting our kitchen. The other two were organizing my closet and painting a canvas to hang above our bed, but today is all about the kitchen, so let's get back to that.
When we moved in, our apartment was two colors. A very light taupe, which had a little too much pink in it until all of our furniture calmed it down, and a bright, glossy white. The kitchen and bathrooms are white, and taupe runs throughout the rest of the apartment.
From the moment he laid eyes on the place, Hub knew he wanted to paint. He's an ambitious little devil. We talked about painting all the time. What colors would we choose? Which rooms did we for sure want to paint? Which rooms would it be better to leave alone? How much would this endeavor cost? Could we even paint a room? These questions and many of the like creeped into our conversations for weeks, months I tell you. It was getting ridiculous.
I think the good Lord knew I couldn't take all this paint talk without action anymore because one day we randomly went to Home Depot and found the perfect color for our kitchen, Wildflower Honey. We chose it, bought it, and were on our way home within about thirty minutes.
When we got home, we tore everything out of the kitchen and started taping.
These pictures really don't capture how bright and terribly glossy the white walls were, but, let me just tell you, it was not the best choice.
Come back tomorrow to see some in-progress photos and the finished product!
