Bryden Wood innovators reach WICE Awards finals

Somehow I’d already used up the 10 other rolls I usually keep on-hand.. “But Courtenay.” you say, “This chubby little bunny is far too cute to be made out of nothing but tape and newspaper!

And just like that, kitchen design magic was made!.Let’s start out by looking back a few years at how our kitchen used to look, and then I’ll show you how we quickly updated our cabinets with the new GE Iron Grip adhesive, and I’ll show you how awesome that part of the kitchen is looking now.

So here’s how it used to look:.Our kitchen has honestly always been pretty enjoyable to be in.The only problem really was that the style was out of date.

The cabinets were great quality custom cabinets, but they were golden oak, which instantly made the kitchen look old.That extra gingerbread trim around the windows really gave it a “straight out of 1992” flare that just wasn’t doing it for us.

Still, it was a big kitchen and it functioned well, so we made it work.. It’s really only taken a few pretty minor and inexpensive changes to make it feel like a brand new room and this little cabinet project has definitely played a big part.

We started out by painting all the cabinets a light grey color and that really made a huge difference.to help you get over your fear of picking up that paintbrush, your “paint paralyis” if you will.

I’ll be writing a number of posts all about easy-peasy painting ideas, tips, techniques, and just generally being your DIY cheerleader as usual, but this time I’m also TAKING MY SHOW ON THE ROAD!.I’m going to have so much fun with this that I don’t even know what to do with myself!.

I’ll be at the ready, along with technical paint experts from CIL to help you pick a paint and paint color that you will absolutely love, whether you’re a bold “all the colour all of the time” kinda person, or more of a “neutral goes with everything” type.. I’ll be at the following Home Depots in South Western Ontario over the course of 8 weeks this Fall and I can’t WAIT to meet you there to talk all about paint, decor, and getting you to love your DIY projects:.August 28, 2014   Waterloo.
