The Powder Room is finished. I added the stencil design using Golden’s Iridescent Green Oxide paint. The design is repeated in a random pattern and because the paint is iridescent, in some light you see the pattern and other light you do not. It’s a mysteriously elegant finish!
Here’s a close up. I took these pictures before the mirror was hung over the sink. The mirror now hides that design, but it the lighting was the best on that wall at the time, to take the photo.
Last November, Stacy and I transformed these once, blah oak kitchen cabinets. They were that standard, medium brown stain tone, from the 80’s. The homeowners had already upgraded their counters and lighting. We stained the center island a deep walnut brown and the remaining cabinets were painted off white. A brown glaze was added for detail. This week we also painted the walls, in this room and the adjacent breakfast room, a soft gold tone.
We also stained the woodwork around the window to match the island.
Here’s a close up of the cabinet doors. More work is planned at this home in a little while.
Hello! I am a newcomer to your site, but it is def one of my fav spots!!
