: ) Before and after pictures of our kitchen. I actually made that valance above the window out of place mats. That's a babycenter thing.
It wasn't the brown I envisioned. I initially was going for a darker brown...like dark chocolate. But this is almost rusty, orangish-brown.
I still like it and I'm ALMOST loving it.
I think I would've instantly LOVED the darker brown, but who knows.
After the first 5 minutes of painting, Sarah said she didn't like it...that I should go darker...that it was almost orange...so, it's not like I didn't know what I was doing.
Sarah has come around and decided she likes it.
Mel says it reminds him of the beach (YAY), because it's like a French/Tuscany feel. That made me smile.
