Kitchen changes

2/22/2013

So a few things have changed. I’ve painted the large grey dresser white inside. This makes things on display sitck out a lot more and it also brightens up the room. I’ve added green touches mainly by painting a few things. It all feels so much brighter. I’ve also put the dining table back in the kitchen again.

The industrial trolley was in my office as extra storage when I had the shop. I much prefer it in the kitchen. It takes away the IKEA look and adds a bit more of an industrial feel. It’s also extra storage.

As you can see here I’ve also painted a bit more black. I had painted a rectangle in blackboard before, but now I’ve painted it all the way up and on the other side next to the fridge and it’s made a huge difference.

The large fridge magnets are just paper mache letter I bought in a craft shop. I’ve painted them green and put magnets on the back. So easy! I also have an M, so Magnus can spell TEA, EAT, ATE, MEAT, MATE, TEAM…

The large green board I’ve written a post about HERE. It’s just an old table top painted green.

Hope you’ve like the changed I’ve made. 
They were actually really easy changes to do and mostly involved paint. 
HAPPY FRIDAY!!

  6. Fantastisk…..du er så kreativ og flink Hege. Jeg blir alltid inspirert da jeg klikker meg inn på bloggen din. Dere har vel vinterferie fortsatt dere også? Jeg er spent på hvordan det blir å lande i Norge på søndag etter snart 1 år siden sist jeg stod på norsk jord. Gleder meg….skal bli godt å se familien og venner igjen. Bon Week-end!

    Great before and after.
    The trolley is excellent, what an eye-catcher. And the white in the cupboard is lovely, no regrets I should think?
    Really, I love what you did with a /what-was-already-great-before/ kitchen!

  14. Katrin says:

    Looks beautiful, congratulations! I love especially the green highlights in contrast with all the black and white.

  15. Oh my goodness, Hege, I LOVE it! The green touches with the industrial theme is just spot on. Bravo!

    Have a lovely weekend!

    love your new kitchen table – together with the newly painted dresser it really makes the room look brighter. also love how simple and clean your styling is.
    what are those orange things on the tray on the kitchen counter? was hoping for cakes, but looks more like some type of fruit…?? =)

    Love Lisanne
