A few months ago I was looking through Pinterest and I found
this.
I fell in love immediately and knew I wanted to do this in our new kitchen.
This is the before.
Plain white kitchen with white cabinets. Not very complimenting. In our home in Georgia we had the same thing and then painted the walls gray and LOVED it. I almost did it again but knew I wanted to try the manderines.
There were 3 shades of orange that you had to do one layer at a time. The stamps that the blog showed me to make didnt show up too well on my wall because it was pretty textured. So I would have to go back and fill it in. Time consuming but worth it.
My lovely family came and helped which cut the time way down.
Thank you ladies
It was definitely a time consuming project, but I really liked how it turned out.
To be honest, the first night it was a little overwhelming to me and I actually told Ryan that I think I didn't like it and wanted to paint it gray! But I decided to give it a couple days, and it really grew on me. It's really fun, cheery and bright. I have plans to put up some black and white pictures on the main wall to break it up which I think will look really good.
The boys like it too :)
I love it! Very cheery.
