You might remember that a few months ago we gussied up our kitchen with white paint, new countertops, a new sink and faucet, a newly installed microwave, and a subway tile backsplash. 
It looks mighty fine and we love how bright it is now, but it’s lacking some serious color infusion. Well, I started that infusion with a few tweaks involving spray paint. For example, see the dark brown spoon holder to the right of the stove in the photo above? No? It’s there. It’s just melded into the color of the cook top, no individuality whatsoever.
Well that spoon holder’s singing a new song these days to the tune of “Lemon Grass” by Rustoleum:
If I’ve written it one time I’ve written it a thousand buuut, all I did was spray each of my items to be colored with a thin coat of primer, let that dry, and then sprayed them again with a few thin and even coats of color, making sure to spray at every side and angle of each item to get full coverage. 
So there we have it, a leedle bit more color in our stark white kitchen.
The best part about this whole paint party is that it only cost me $4 for the spray paint. I already had some spray primer on hand and the napkin, spoon, and paper towel holders were wedding gifts from Target five years ago.
Still on my back burner are a hand-painted/stenciled runner, some colorful cookbooks, random decor here and there, and maybe a spray-painted coffee maker? Not sure about that last one but I’m not going to lie and tell you I positively won’t do it…
Happy weekend!
Cute!!
