Oooh, how I love me some white painted paneling. Doesn’t Laura’s dining room look infinitely brighter? And bigger? And better? Even the pots in the pot rack look nicer! That is the power of paint. Not to be confused with the power of love. Not to be confused with the Celine Dion version of The Power of Love, because I was actually referring to the Huey Lewis and the News version. You know, from Back to the Future? Kind of like how this kitchen went back in time from outdated ’70s to timeless farmhouse? (How’s that for a segue?) (Wait, I just realized that didn’t actually make sense.)

July 2, 2012 at 4:13 PMLove this! I rent a house with paneling so I can’t paint it, but I am working on contrasting the furniture as best I can. It ain’t easy!

July 2, 2012 at 5:30 PMWell hang dang it! The power of paint strikes again and it did make the pots and pans look better too! What a pretty kitchen!
P.S. I totally followed your power of love reference so what does that mean?
