The hubster and I are gradually getting back into decorator mode. It’s taking forever to paint our bathroom, but I’m getting there. My kitchen is battleship gray with tired (poorly painted) white cabinets. (See below). It really needs a gut and replace, but that so isn’t going to happen anytime soon. I want to paint them, but we’ve been debating a color for a while now. I think I’ve found it: RED. I know it sounds crazy, but they really look cool. Red paint is a bit of a pain. It takes a lot of coats to get it opaque, but with proper priming I think we can get a good look. I love that cool rail detail just below them. That would be great for hanging towels, or kitchen hardware. I’m really excited. I’ll keep you posted.

My cabinets are also white and I am tired of cleaning them. I saw an HGTV redo that did the cabinets a Chelsey (sp) grey and I loved it. I am thinking of doing that since my counter tops are speckled grey, black and white.
You might get sick of red. It’s a power color but too much of anything will make you gag. Maybe a punch of red. I’m just saying…
That red is lovely!
Go for it! The kitchen in red looks nice indeed. Roz, I’ve always admired women like you… If you ever want to hide something from me, hide it in a kitchen. Sigh…
We just did a red flop. Love it.
