"Yucky"ness to Rockin' Beachy Blue Kitchen Cabinets

These finishes ROCK!!!

(have I told you lately how much I love using decorative finishes by Caromal Colours?!)

 

Today, I reinstalled these beautiful babies for a client. 

 

A breath of life is poured back into this crazily outdated kitchen by decoratively finishing them with the soft, pale blue of Versailles. And, it gave my client the fresh, cozy coastal feel she was looking to achieve. 

 

 

Want to see them before? Well, here they are in all of their "yucky"ness...

 

The kitchen didn't need to be ripped out, nor did the cabinet doors and faces need to be sanded and stripped down to bare surfaces (forget that stinky mess!). The best part -- the client didn't need to buy a brand new kitchen!

We can bring your kitchen back to life. So, when do you want to get started? Let's talk!

Mystery Item: Flea Market Find

At the flea market, even the vendor hadn't a clue. So, I asked my Facebook followers for their best guesses to what in the world is the purpose of this cute, little ditty. 

And, they responded! It's a silverware caddy for a buffet. Well, I'm not planning any dinner buffets anytime soon, so I came up with my own ideas....

I'd love to hear your ideas for other uses!

Furniture Photo Shoot in the Garden



The "pink snow" falling from last week's blooming crab apples provided the perfect backdrop to photograph my latest decorative painting project: a fabulously French side board. (previously red). The Creative Director showed up to make sure the shoot was going according to plan... 
 

The Creative Director arrives.

Creating Chalkboards from Cabinet Doors - Upcycle!

It was super fun to create this chalkboard from an old cabinet door at Caromal Colours last evening. Love the paint and the process. 

My trusty artistic critic gave my newly created chalkboard a friendly nug and rub. I take that as a positive review!

The Caromal Colors that I used on my chalkboard are chocolate and mustard. Looking forward to many more projects using distressing, glazing, and gilding!
