PAINTING KITCHEN CABINETS, MANTEL & NICHE IN LIZ & RICK'S NEW HOME

Liz and Rick were moving into a new home and asked me to do some painting for them.

Their color theme was going to be shades of gray throughout the house.

This mantel surround was painted white with red bricks around the fireplace opening.  

They replaced the brick with this gray and rust tile.  They asked me to paint the mantel to match the colors in the new tile.  I used grays, rust and beige colored paint.  For the top part of the mantel they asked me to paint it a darker brown to match some of their new furniture. 

You can see a picture of the mantel "before" at the bottom of this post.

They installed same tile in entry niche and asked me to paint niche walls with the same colors as the mantel.  Rick loved the way you could see the niche and mantel from the front door.

Their kitchen cabinets were tan stained oak and asked me to paint them a medium gray that their decorator picked out.  Don't you LOVE those new handles!  I really like their decorator!

These new light fixtures look so good with the gray cabinets.

And, look really good with the new black handles.

They asked me to paint the cabinets in both bathrooms the same gray color.
 The baths did not have handles on the doors and drawers.  The decorator asked me to paint the old kitchen handles and knobs to match the existing towel racks in the baths.
They used to be a brass color.  The carpenter drilled the holes.

The light fixtures were replaced in both baths.  In this picture you see the old fixtures.

The walls used to be that dark tan and were painted a lighter gray/beige.

Thank you Liz and Rick!
