Just a small sample of the cabinets in our kitchen.
But because our home was built just over a year ago and I considering this project would entail painting 23 drawers and 36 cabinet doors. My husband and I decided that wouldn't be the smarted idea, Read: Even though I begged and pleaded the best I know how, my husband said absolutely not.
And that is okay because in the midst of my pouting I realized I didn't necessarily want to paint my cabinets, what I really wanted to do was paint something, anything.
My unsuspecting victim: our formal living room.
The color we used was Atmospheric from Benjamin Moore's Aura Line. It's suppose to by their "green paint" less chemicals, bad smell, + easy application, fast drying and so on. It wasn't the most inexpensive paint by far at $59.99 but the color is stunning and all of the claims above are true except for the smell. I would prefer the strong "paint" aroma over the light Elmers glue odor I smelt while painting. But I also like the stench of paint, I'm weird like that.
Before: Drab cream colored walls
Now: Atmospheric
I am quite proud of the finished product. Now if only I could add these for the finishing touch.
