I know I know, all I do is paint. But I have to say I feel like paint is the handiest tool in any DIYer's belt. I promise we will do an actual renovation at some point, hopefully this summer(I'm looking at you master bath).
So this week I've decided to paint one of the doors in our kitchen. It's the glass door leading into the sunroom upstairs. At first I wanted to strip it and re stain it but after a while I felt like it needed a little more contrast. Paint it is. Here is where we started.
Here is after lots of paint and new floors...where we left you last.
Better shot of the doors. Eventually I will paint the solid door. I want to wait until summer when I can leave it open since it leads out to the garage.
And after!!
Since our appliances are black I felt like it would balance the room out nice to add a little black. I used the color Carbon by Behr. I used an interior enamel paint in semi gloss. Sticky hands are constantly touching this door so it needed to be durable and wipeable. I also plan on painting/staining the stairs behind (and maybe add a runner). So much to do!
I ended up taking the tape off and just painting the glass. Its almost always easier for me to just scrape it off after.
It gets a little better with each small upgrade.
Taking a trip to Ikea next weekend! Hoping to pick up a couple of lack shelves and maybe replace that light fixture over the table. We'll see.
Happy Friday!
