Quick and Easy Change – Painting the Kitchen Island

With a hole in the drywall, and company coming, I decided it was time to address the kitchen Island.

Hole in the Kitchen Island

Here’s what it looked like before:

We just wanted a little color- nothing too bright or crazy, and something that would not be beige. We settled on “Quietude” by Sherwin Williams.

I actually cleaned up a bit! Oh but what’s that in the background? We painted the pantry door to match!

I also like the contrast of the color against the dining room. We wanted something that could play with it, and not compete. I’m not totally sold on the color actually. But it was so quick and easy to do, that it’s not a big deal to change it in the future. The color came out a bit more blue than gray green, but it’s a nice color on its own. It reminds me of the color of Wedgewood.
