Kitchen painted (pip)

If you've been following the paint saga, here it is!  We found someone to paint the kitchen and dining room for $300 total (including paint).  The new color is Wheat Bread by Behr (color matched into Behr Paint + Primer)

 

Reminder of the old color

Here's the new color

  • It looks great! I definitely like this color better. I hope you sell your place quickly.
  • Looks great!  I hope it does the trick!
  • Hopefully it will have a wider appeal and help you to sell!

  • So much better!  It definitely makes that kitchen look much higher-end.  Here's hoping for a quick sale!

  • Looks great. That kitchen is really huge! I bet that will help. So was a picture of your previous color in the kitchen listed online? If so, I bet you'll attract a lot of people to see your house that might have otherwise kept looking.

    Yes, it was.  The pics above are from the listing now.  The realtor went yesterday and took pics.  I am pleased with how it turned out.  She said it looked fantastic irl.  The pics look a bit washed out, I think, so I'll be interested to see the pics our friend takes (his brother in law did the painting, so he's going to send us pics too). 

    We had showings Thursday, Friday, and today. So, hopefully we get a bite. The people from Thursday requested the disclosure. So, we know they were at least a little interested.

  • Oh I love the green! But I agree with PPs that it looks great and think this definitely help in getting the house sold! Love how much brighter it looks with a neutral paint! Somehow it makes the kitchen look bigger. Thanks for sharing and good luck!

    I'm a sucker for lime green, so I loved its previous color, BUT I am also artial to wheat bread as I used it for the stripes in my spare bedroom! 

    Hopefully, the place sells soon!

     

  • Honestly i love it. I liked your green for you, but I am a color chicken. (although I'm smart enough to know I an paint when in the market...)

     

    Here's a good one for you... I went house shopping with my little sister (uh she's 28...) and she walked into the kitchen..

     "Oh we could never buy this place. It doesn't have a double sink..."

  • i love green, too, but good choice for selling.  If I hear someone on house hunters base their choices on paint color again, I might scream, but i think it is wise to anticipate buyer response.
