A week before Christmas the hubby & I were told by my mother-in-law & sister-in-law that we needed to leave the house for the day. I kind of had a feeling it had to do w/the kitchen/dining room. We figured they were painting it for us. The colors that the previous owners had were absolutely hideous! The majority of the room (kitchen/dining-1 big room) was ready for this...mint green & the bottom of the walls under the trim was teal green! Maybe it's just me but what would possess someone to use those 2 colors together? Of course I can't stand mint green anyway, but still! So, before I left that morning I took a few before pictures in case I was right about my guess. And boy am I glad I did. When I got the phone call to come home I was shocked, excited, etc... They did way more then we thought! We all loved what they did!
Okay....Before
And...Ta Da...After!
The top color they used is called Shaker Tan & the bottom is a new color called Pomegranate.
They really went all out even getting the tablecloth & placemats for the table!
My new chalkboard! In love with it!
Then I was told to go into the living room & check it out. I don't have before pics because this was really a total surprise! They added some much needed accessories! Basically the curtains, rug, lamps & pillows are new.
I was sooo happy with the transformation! So cozy now! Next I'm going to ask my sis-in-laws boyfriend if he can continue the Shaker Tan color right through into the living room for the finishing touch!
