All the drywall and plastering is done. Painting the kitchen is next. |
The yellow walls were nice but I never really liked how they looked with the tile and the countertops. It was all a little too yellow. The counters and tile are sort of a natural color and the yellow turned out to be a little too bright for my taste.
I started out thinking that I would have the kitchen painted a nice, Tuscan green. Kind of moss or a light sage green. Ted did not like this and said that green is an unappetizing color for a kitchen. At first I disagreed but as I looked at more and more color chips I decided that maybe he was on to something.
Color selection is not my forte but Ted has a real eye for it. This from a man who wears only khaki pants and dark suits (although he is know as "Teddy the Shirt" around his office for his loud Turnbull & Asser shirts and ties).
Anyway, I am putting Ted on the job. He's good at color and after almost 25 years of marriage, he can usually come up with something I'll like. He doesn't have a lot to go on. All is know is that I want an earthy, rustic color -- not too dark. I could even be persuaded to go with something in the off-white family if it's not too white.
The color suitcase. What happened to the nice little color wheel? |
I'm looking forward to seeing what colour Ted comes up with for your new kitchen!
