Oh my goodness! Have I blinded you? This is the result of my “brilliant” idea to paint the back panelling on my hutch BRIGHT red this afternoon. I’ve been using red as an accent color in my kitchen, but this is too much! I did manage to clean the upper two shelves, which I’m pleased with, but the color is a flop! So, while I figure out what to do about painting it back, I’ll tell you about my next project.
This week, I’m beginning part 2 of my “command center”. I will be working on a large blank area on my kitchen wall where I will be installing some essentials to keep us organized — some cork boards, a calendar and some other surprises (I’m going to be surprised along with you – ha, ha).
By the way, notice the top left corner of my hutch. I used that cookie jar to hold a fake plant. It stays. 🙂 Thanks for the input.
The red looks pretty awesome, not gonna lie… and you used the plant idea!!! Im flattered!
Yes, the plant idea was yours. Thanks! 🙂 I have to admit, the red is kind of growing on me, but my husband hates it. It is really bright! I’m trying to think of some way to mute it a bit. . . maybe try sanding it a little? Might ruin it. I don’t know.
Get some of those wall decals.
That’s a good idea!
Paint a thick (so it doesnt liik pink) coat of white paint over it then sand down the white so the red shows through.
That’s what Paul said too. I think I’m going to try that! Thanks, Shell.
