Kitchen Transformation
As promised, pictures of the kitchen!
It started out, as Gen dubbed it, a "dead, lifeless" yellow. The yellow you see was on every surface of this condo, from walls to molding to ceilings.
On the paint guy at Home Depot's advice, we used a grey primer. He claimed that painting red over white (or pale yellow) would take at least five coats to get a true color, but painting over grey would get it in the usual two coats. We took his advice, and temporarily had a grey kitchen.
We had some edging issues, which are frustrating because I tried to be so careful when taping and painting the edges, but I'm no professional, so. Touching that up is next on the ever-long To Do list. From a distance, I don't think you can tell, and I'm pretty happy with the color. It's a fairly good match to my couch, which is what I was going for. Now, to accessorize the living room to bring all the colors together (also on that To Do list). I think it's coming along nicely.
