So you may or may not remember the lovely sage green kitchen walls from my house tour pictures. Well I decided that the kitchen would be my first "big" room to paint. So I taped off the kitchen a week ago and got to work! I finished up last night and am loving the lighter more subtle walls.
{The color is dolphin fin by bher.}
This is the first of many changes I have planned for this space. So far the list includes:
- Painting the cabinets
-Installing cabinet drawer pulls and handles
- Installing a backsplash
-Getting new countertops
-Getting new appliances
- Installing a glass shelf above the sink to display milk glass, mason jars, etc.
Whew! It will take us a while to complete this list but I am excited to have started making changes. I think the next project I am going to tackle is painting the cabinets. It's by far the biggest project on the list {for me} and I am starting to do my research. Any helpful tips from veteran cabinet painters would be appreciated!
Today during EC's nap time I was able to tape off and cut in the rest of the kitchen. When she goes to bed tonight I plan on knocking out the rest of the painting and the green will officially be G-O-N-E! I can't wait to see the change.
And just for grins and giggles here is my BIG baby girl showing off her teeth this morning.
Love those cheeks and that smile. Disclaimer: I swear I wasn't pinching her face hard at all ;-) Just appears that way in the photo.

I agree, the green had to go-it looks great! Seriously, come to our house and help us paint. We need you to motivate us! :)
Mallorie we are about to paint our kitchen and cabinets too! Let me know what you decide on the cabinets...are you going to sand? I was just going to try primer and paint.
I LOVE that shade of gray!!
Yay for teeth, boo for teething! We are getting more teeth in our house too!
