So Friday, I posted Christine’s KitchenAid that she had repainted to match her kitchen. Great idea. If I could find my stinking camera, I’d show you my repainted KitchenAid too.
BUT, get this: How about repainting your kitchen to match your KitchenAid? No, I’m serious. Sure, this isn’t a WHOLE kitchen, but Better After reader Elizabeth is renting and barely had any room to work with as it was. So she found this puketastic green buffet for $25 on Craigslist to use as an island and painted it to match her pretty pink appliance. Then she added a countertop made from an old door! She’s crafty, that one.

July 9, 2012 at 3:08 PMYou really aren’t joking with the “Better After”!! This is such a perfect example of what a little paint and details can do to change something boring and outdated into something beautiful. Love BETTER AFTER Lindsay!!!
