My cousin who is a missionary to Australia is living in a tiny cabin as they prepare to leave for the field. The house has log wood on each wall and she wants to make the place feel as cozy and cute as it should be.First room the kitchen: Only wood left in this room is the log walls but paint in between a sage green. Sand all cabinets; paint a cotton white. Replace curtains with a pop of color. See reddish fabric with circles? Use something like that to add a country but contemporary feel. www.fabricguru.com is a great online fabric store.
Hint for kitchens... 1) buy new hand towels to add color 2) add baskets for storage 3) clear the counters 4) add shelves in kitchen to store pans or baskets of spices
This is exactly what I need. I can't paint though, so I'm wondering if there are any other ways to brighten up dark wood walls?.
ReplyDeleteby adding light colors in the curtains, accents, and furniture will lighten up the walls. :)
