OT Red kitchen (for Frood)
I'm posting this mainly so Frood won't think I'm a complete color wimp after
seeing my sewing room colors. *big grin* Here's what I've been doing this last week instead of quilting. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/kathy.....net/my_photos Click on the "house" album, and check the last picture. Just a little change! Once DH gets the window coverings back up, I'll add pictures of the great room. That's the one great thing about a huge room with high ceilings -- you can get away with using five gallons of red paint without being overwhelming! LOL -- Kathy A.

OT Red kitchen (for Frood)
I have red paint in my kitchen, too, except it's only on the backsplash
area between the upper and lower cabinets. The end walls and soffits are gold. I have a wide wallpaper border on the soffits that has the red background and big bunches of flowers with a lot of gold. It was pretty daring for me, but I love the results. I have light oak cabinets, white counter tops, and white appliances, too. Then I got really daring and painted one wall of the bedroom hall the same red. It's a long wall but has three doors to break it up. I was pleased with it all.

OT Red kitchen (for Frood)
Its beautiful! The gold of the cabinets glows against the red. Now I
feel very comfortable with the idea of painting our backsplashes to match the livingroom wall... We just painted the vaulted wall in our living room red. Its red red wine by behr... in semi gloss. Then.. well.. rather than me tell you why not just give you the link? http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/lunamom44/my_photos in the remodeling folder. We will be installing lam flooring in January (I hope). Red is good. Its the next white.

Ok, you've redeemed yourself. Somewhat.... I notice the cabinets are neutral
wood and the ceiling is still white... wg My kitchen's gonna be periwinkle. Or perhaps heliotrope. I like saying that one. -- Wendy http://griffinsflight.com/Quilting/quilt1.htm De-STUFF email address to reply "Kathy Applebaum" wrote in message et...

"Jan" wrote in message . 125.201... Very nice!! But are we really suppose to believe that's all the fabric that lives in your sewing room??? vbg Uh, sure, that's all the fabric I own. Honest! *trying desperately to look innocent, while covering up the 12 boxes of fabric that hadn't been unpacked when the picture was taken* -- Kathy A.

OT Red kitchen (for Frood)
I am guessing I can be in the not boring colour place too then. My kitchen
was a toss up. I wanted either red as in a red apple red or a coffee house kitchen with all coffee related colours but my first choice and I am glad I stuck with it was for a LIME GREEN. I have red accents all over my kitchen to go with my pale yellow and lime green. Most people looked at me and said eww when I explained my plan, but now that most of them have seen it, they LOVE it! Only one negative comment came to me and that is from my SIL who hates everything I do in my home and then runs home and does the same thing with a tiny bit different shade... go figure? Now that I see a kitchen in red, I think I want more red! LOL I love it! ~KK in BC~ Loving LIME green! -- -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- I haven't outgrown the need to play with blocks.

Thank you!
I do wish I had remembered you are in the *biz* before I started. I had wanted to frottage paint but that just didnt work well. Then it took several trys till I learned how to avoid overlap marks, the unintentional ones anyway. That, and I probably wouldnt have picked this particular color to glaze with. When Im ready to repaint I shall try to remember to ask for help first. Di Kathy Applebaum wrote: Great job on the faux! |

The ceiling only looks white in the photo -- it's really a light
yellow-gold. Cabinets stay as they are until many years from now when I can afford new ones. I hate painted oak, otherwise they'd be changed. Heliotrope, heliotrope, heliotrope. Yup, fun to say! -- Kathy A. (Woodland, CA) Queen of Fabric Tramps http://www.kayneyquilting.com , remove the obvious to reply "frood" wrote in message .. . Ok, you've redeemed yourself. Somewhat....
