Green, be gone!!

Michael currently lives in a cute little town house. It's been the perfect home, plenty of room, HOA to take care of the little things, and not a lot of maintenance and decorating required-- well until I entered the picture.

We've decided to live here for the first few months of our marriage with goal of being in a new 'our' home by next year. Of course with the way the housing market here currently is, and the fact that there are several other town homes from his community also for sale we've decided to get a head start on the process.

The house is in great shape, and most of the rooms are painted a very neutral color. Except the kitchen!!

The kitchen was painted a sage green with and *attempted texture job. The idea behind it was great, it just didn't pan out the way it was planned. So without further ado....

I present the kitchen from start to finish:

Here is the original wall color, I call this 'Grandma Green' The green made the cabinets take on a slightly yellow tint-- and it was just not appealing!
We made a minor boo boo when we started painting, and did a red strip all the way down. Easily covered though!
Red is on! We used Gliden Duo Paint- it has the primer in with it, it's a thicker paint but goes on great and aside from a few bumpy spots only requires one coat!

Ta Da!! IT's done and we love it!! the kitchen feels so cozy now and I love staring into from the living room!
