While we have a cheapo rug in the living room, this one has a really stylish pattern and is made out of 100% wool.
The eye is happy!.All I did was paint out the backsplash area with a little bit of paint left in the bottom of a sample pot (and clearly I didn’t even do too detailed of a job) and the difference it makes in the feel of the kitchen is tremendous.
It’s one of those things that just brings out everything else around it.In fact, one of my mother-in-laws was here the other day and she just now noticed things like the new lighting and the cornices that have been up since February.Suddenly it looked like I had done a whole ton of work in there, but really all I did was take about an hour of my time one evening and slop a little paint on there..
It even make the area around my super old range look a little more current..So here’s why it works:.
I used the concept of color blocking here and just painted on a solid block of color that isn’t found anywhere else in the room.
That really just makes it a pop of the dark gray color rather than a continuation of something else from the room, and gives it that “backsplash” feel, since “real” backsplashes usually use a material that isn’t used anywhere else in the room..So yummy and so easy..
This recipe would also be so great to bring to a pot luck or something like that.A real crowd-pleaser for sure!.
So the next time your whole family is starving, and you’re too busy and tired and frazzled to feel like putting a lot of effort into dinner (which may or may not be almost every night around here), try this one out!It’ll really hit the spot.There are millions of cleaning products out there designed to help us clean away all the crazy buildup that water can leave on our showers, each one claiming to be better than the last.
