Shades of Gray

I've had this little cabinet for at least 15 years.

I bought it at a craft fair when I was into

decorating our home in a country style

with mauve and green colors.

I've been slowly changing our home into more neutral colors

and most of the country decor has been sold/donated and

swapped out for more modern decor.

I really like this little cabinet and didn't want to get rid of it.
I knew that I could update it with a new color of paint.
The only problem was I didn't know what color I wanted to paint it.

One day while I was starring at it trying to decide

what color it should be it finally hit me.
It was going to be a shade of gray.

Sherwin Williams Dovetail Gray to be exact.

It's a gray color with brown undertones.

Once I decided the color it was time to paint it.

Since it was a rainy weekend I set up my spray tent

in our office/dining room and started painting.

This little stand went from looking like this...

To this.
A more updated modern look.

At first I wasn't sure I liked the color,

but once I got it styled I realize what a pretty gray color it was.

The more I look at this little cabinet the more

I'm loving it with it's new paint color.
Isn't paint a wonderful thing?

Hubby was happy to see the sage green color gone.

He thinks I chose the perfect gray color.

Next week I will show you what I made to hang

above this cabinet.
That's it for this week.

Until Next Time,

Veronica
