Painting the Kitchen

Our kitchen has been in situ for at least the last 28 years. We have been in the house for just over the 20 years and the people before us put the kitchen in when they moved in so I'm adding them about 8 years (long enough to kill the hob and for the seal around the oven to die ready for us to move in).

So it was about time to freshen it up. from this...

and this...

to this...

and this...

a beautiful duck egg blue.

We were unlikely to ever mend the two broken drawers (and have stuffed the spaces underneath so full there's no room to put a drawer back now), so I have bought some fabric of the same sort of colour to make a little curtain to cover the hole.

The door knobs are the cheapest B&Q can supply but the overall effect is new and bright and it makes me happy!

Hooray for paint!
Have a lovely swirly pic of the paint as I was mixing it together before painting...
