Mini-Kitchen Redo

It's Metamorphosis Monday! And I made it. On Monday! Huzzah! I spent the weekend painting. It was cold, windy and snowy, what else was I going to do? I posted a pic of my kitchen a few months ago. If case you don't remember here it is:



Unfortunately the whole thing is that blah brown tile, except for the small bit of wall around the window. I wanted to make the whole thing brighter and less depressing, but when you have almost all tile, it's kind of hard. I normally wouldn't have chosen such a strong color, but it needed something bold, and as it turns out, I love it. M came in and decided to take a few photos. As you can see my hair had come no where near a flat iron. Scary.


He took like 10 pictures of my behind. What is wrong with men? And, yes, I AM painting in my Seven Jeans. Shhhhh.


Here is the finished result. It took about 45 minutes and the fabric is just clipped up and poofed out. I'm going to put a slightly longer "mistreatment" behind the poofy thing, but I haven't found the fabric yet. Still, this is worlds better than it was before and it makes me happy just to look at the wall. If only there weren't a sink full of dirty dishes below it.
