Feelin' Blue
I wanted a splash of color in my dining room so my sister Dawn repainted this corner cabinet and gave it to me and I got a four chairs at a yard sale in my neighborhood for $5. I already had the black chairs. I don't have a before picture of the chairs but they were white and light wood colored. I painted them the same blue as the corner cabinet and used my favorite stain over the top. I'm using the other two chairs in my bathroom for my vanity and Pattens room. Now I just need window treatments and my dining room will be finished.
I am so in love with this color right now. We have a house in MI and an apartment in Illiois. The apt. is so dark and tiny...I have been using this color to brighten it up. I love opening my cupboards now and seeing pops of turquoise and I have a bit on the walls now too. Love your dining room!
ReplyDeleteRaise your hand if you hate painting dining chairs! Good thing primer and lacquer at least come in spray cans. Blech.
ReplyDeleteYou can't tell, but I'm raising my hand right now. I actually jumped off the couch with it in the air so it would be extra high.
ReplyDeleteLove the chairs. What stain do you use on top of the paint?
ReplyDeleteLove the color. Every Tuesday, I host a Turquoise Tuesday party and you may want to link up this project (or another you may have).
