Kitchen "Face Lift"

**jennielynn1970** · 12-01-2009, 09:08 PM

Dave and I had been talking about doing something to my kitchen because it is just so white! Walls.. white. Appliances... white. Cabinets... white. Everything in it was white!!

Well... not anymore!! We, ahem... he painted the kitchen on Saturday and Sunday and it is now a lovely shade of Glidden paint called BELGIAN WAFFLE. It looks a little orange, but it's a lovely warm shade really. I saw it first at night and was like "OMG... my kitchen is a CREAMSICLE!!". It's not, lol.

So.. here are the before pics when it was all white and had the pizza parlor curtain tiers and lights, lol. The newer pictures have the new paint on the walls, a window seat was next to the windows (a cabinet that I used to sit on and chat), but now houses a new chest freezer. There are new ceiling lights and also a new shelf that Dave built to put my toaster oven on so that I have more counter space. He also renovated a closet and put shelving in it so that I have more space for storage and more room in my cabinets. No pics of that as it was not that exciting to look at, lol.

So... here are the pics.

Looks very nice Jen. I'm jealous. My kitchen totally needs an update. Now I just have to find a guy that will do it for me.

Dave and I live in Allentown... he could do the painting and other things if you ever want to have him take a look at it. I saw you're also in PA.

Love the color - makes it so inviting

Gee, Jenn, thanks for a great idea! I'm having a strufggle choosing a color and, honestly was considering something like that. Dave did a great job! Creamsicle is sure better than the kitchen color a friend had when she moved to her 1st house..Pepto Bismol Pink!

I think your kitchen looks great, much warmer and inviting than white . I think it's a great colour, different than the usual colours you usually see in kitchens.
