Building a home is quite an experience - good and bad, easy and hard. There are so many decisions to be made. Decisions of which are made in an awkward office building. Decisions of which you are unable to actually see until they're installed and it's already too late to change your mind. Decisions you have to live with. One last minute decision that we'll never regret is making our original 1 level flat kitchen island 2 levels.
We spend a lot of time around this island and finally put the finishing touches on it this past weekend, painting it a deep green to match our backsplash, kitchen table and overall color scheme.
This fresh and vibrant pop of color is exactly what our muted downstairs needed to add some life and personality to it.
ooo! LOVE it! The green looks so great - I just love the tone =) and your backsplash is SO cute with the little green squares =)
ReplyDeleteLove it! Our back splash and bar stools are very similar!
ReplyDeleteMy eyes are immediately drawn to the green! :) Looks great!
ReplyDeletelove it. it matches so perfectly with your kitchen table chairs.
ReplyDeleteLove it! It added so much to the room!
ReplyDeleteLove the green!
ReplyDeleteThat adds so much, Kate! I love the pop of color. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteWow, it's amazing look at how different some simple paint can make a room... I think I need to do some painting now.
ReplyDeleteI love it! The color looks great with the room.
ReplyDeleteThe green pop is just fab!! Well done girlie :)
ReplyDeletewhat a great color. I love the idea of a little color on this island. so pretty!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the pop of color!! Love your house!
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with your kitchen - it looks great! An the little details really ties it together - i.e. the green tiles on the kitchen wall.
ReplyDeleteI especially love the "Florida" hat sitting on the island in photo 7! I'm a Gator alumni (GO GATORS) ;)
I love it - it looks great! nice work!!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteI love it. The green looks amazing. I cannot want to be a home owner. WE cant even pain our hideous white walls in our rental! Some day...
ReplyDeleteYour home is GORGEOUS! I bet it's easy to keep clean since you travel so much! :)
ReplyDeleteOhh I love that pop of green!
ReplyDeleteSo, I thought our backsplash was the exact same; however, our accent piece is black. I didn't realize yours was green! Love it! And that pop of color on your island looks fantastic. I love the shade you chose!
ReplyDeleteLove that green!! It looks so good!
ReplyDeleteIt was definitely worth the wait! Your island AND entire kitchen is GORGEOUS!!
ReplyDeleteNeed some green & white towels? haha (okay, that's gross. i would never do that!) That green is in my kitchen color scheme right now and we're changing it to gray and mustard when we get married.
Your Island's great!I like the green shade and the light vibrant texture of the house!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
