Just a bit of Red, White and Blue - Cabinet Door Re-do

I am anxious to start decorating our house for the holidays. We moved in after Christmas so July 4th is our first chance.


I am not a huge July 4th decorator but I couldn't pass up the chance to paint something Red, White and Blue


If I wanted to be technical...I painted in ASCP Primer Red, Old White and Napoleonic Blue. ;)


This little project started with our ugly old built-ins.


Do you remember when they looked like this?

Dark, Dated and Unattractive.


Well...my husband fixed that:

He removed the doors, lined each cubby in bead-board to add texture and covered everything in a beautiful shade of crisp white.


It is amazing.


During the remodeling process, he asked me if I wanted to keep the cabinet doors. Of course I said yes. I can help but hold on to everything.

So, what to do, what to do, with a large stack of old and ugly cabinet doors?

Paint flags of course!

 I grabbed some of all shapes and sizes and began painting.
I chose to do an abstract version because of the look of the cabinet doors.


I took most of them to the shop and kept to matching ones for myself.

I hung them on our front porch and they look lovely! 

 

Thanks for checking in on me. :)
