We are so excited that fall is here! I tried to add some more traditional fall colors in our kitchen and family room the other day but while I was doing it I stopped midway through. I wasn't liking how it looked at all and I had been wanting to paint the room for a little while now to match the rest of the house so I ended up doing something kind of crazy and stopped what I was doing and started painting the whole room - haha! Unfortunately it is a huge task, so I've spent the last week painting all the trim and windows in here Simply White to match the rest of the house and then all the doors Mopboard Black like the rest of the house and then the walls Horizon. I can't wait to take some photos to share soon! I still need to paint the cabinets but I haven't decided whether I want to go with a darker gray than they are (you can barely even tell they are gray right now) or just go with white. Decisions, decisions, decisions. Anyway here are the last handful of photos I took in this room right before I started painting.
So, that's the last picture of our mantel and trim with the London Fog paint color.
I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday! I'll be back tomorrow.
You are too funny Jennifer! Happy painting and I love your fall touches.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall decor! I just love that table you have in there.. what color is on that?
ReplyDeleteThank you! The bottom part is Sea Haze by Benjamin Moore.
DeleteI love the fall decorations, what bothered you? The orange? I have a few friends that don't care for orange even in the fall.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your new paint.

Thanks, Karen! It wasn't really the orange itself that was bothering me, I just didn't like how it looked against the gray trim and doors.
DeleteCan't wait to see the final result! Happy painting!

Pretty! Did you make the wreath or purchase it pre-made?
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was pre-made, but I got it about 8 years ago and I can't even remember where--sorry!
DeleteHaha! That irresistible force came over you. It can be wonderful and horrible all at the same time! But I think alot of us know the feeling of "this must be done before the world will be right". Can't wait to see it in the new colors!

Jen, it looks great! (of course) I was surprised to hear you are painting your kitchen cabinets again already, it is such a pain. I antiqued mine 5 years ago and just bought white paint to do them over. I am dreading it. You are a painting machine! :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your fall decor! Thank you for sharing it with us. May I ask where you purchased the mini bushel basket? It is just so perfect and I'd love to buy one! Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne! My mom got it for me as a surprise gift from Mythology!
DeleteThank you so much, Jen!
