I was finally able to finish painting my kitchen. It's Laura Ashley Olive #3 and I love it. Here's the old blue. I liked it but it made a small kitchen even smaller. Just another picture of it.
the former blue of your kitchen is the current (and chosen by me) blue of our kitchen. ours used to be a lot of busy colorful old lady flowers. it made me hallucinate.
I did like the blue, it was just too dark for that kitchen (plus it had a hideous border with trees and butterflies). I highly recommend that you leave the paint up too. It took us 3 coats of primer to cover it up. I wanted a softer color and I fell in love with this green. It was me who painted it but Chris came home and helped take the tape down. My mom in-law is responsible for helping it look cute. She has a great eye for decorating.
Jennifer...Susan Pope (formerly Grimshaw) gave those to me as a gift. It looks like I painted them that color to match the kitchen. My mom-in-law came up with hanging them there. I love it. Bekah...come over soon so you can see the finished product. I'm tackling Andrew's bedroom this week.

The paint looks great, but I'm busy coveting those stars over the piano...LOVE THOSE!
