I really hate to complain ... but I was looking forward to a fabulous Monday ... and it all got shot to hell by one phone call this morning. Oh so sorry, we've had a snag honing your countertops ... so now we cannot be there until tomorrow.
Ugh. okay. So I am bringing you my Bright Spot of the Day.
Bright. And. Black.
Gloss.
On my quest to eliminate red brick from the inside of our home, I armed myself with my favorite Gloss Black and turned up the volume on the Basement fireplace.
I will do a full reveal of this room very shortly ... just tweaking a few more things.
However, I know you like a good Before and After Shot.
So just to put things in perspective ... here's where we started:
We did have the drop ceiling removed and now have a plastered ceiling with can lights. What a difference they made as well.
The Red and Glass clock used to hang in our Mudroom.
I absolutely LOVE the way the gloss also camoflauges
the tv!
What a little Gloss can do to bring a little life to the show!!

ReplyDeleteYou did that fireplace a giant favor! People need to understand that paneling and brick are often better painted.

ReplyDeleteThe wonders of paint!! I love the glossy black, Kim!! I have a similar fireplace and ours was painted PEACH when we bought this house. You have never seen a can of paint whipped out so fast. First thing I painted!
ReplyDeleteFantastic Kim! what a great impact, ans so stylish. I love it, and love that the tv isn't so dominant. Hope your counters get in today! Xo Nancy
ReplyDeleteSuch a smart girl. I think I may have been a little afraid to paint a fireplace gloss black but not you! Way to take the bull by the horns. I love it!!
ReplyDeleteLooking so good, can't wait to see more. Bad countertop people.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing transformation! Who'd a thought of black gloss--you, my dear! It is gorgeous.
