But it did take about 3 coats of paint for the look I was after. I am getting ready to start on my kitchen makeover too, and I am gonna paint the lower portion of the wall in the dining area red and go with a tan color for the top, seperated by a chair rail. The rest of the kitchen will be done in the tan color but I am painting the kitchen cabinets RED!!!! I am so excited! I am going to try that counter top paint you mentioned. We looked at that at Lowe's last night. Here, it's only around $22 for the kit and since I don't have much counter top space, I think one kit oughta do it. I am going to go with black or midnight color for that project. Keep posting the pics. I am anxious to see what y'all decide to do.<br />Love ya,<br />DonnaDonna~One Simple Country Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09386112721487172023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999574060299320165.post-45475495913849147252011-01-23T17:11:42.556-08:002011-01-23T17:11:42.556-08:00I painted my daughter's bedroom walls red and ...I painted my daughter's bedroom walls red and it was a bear. It took 5 coats of paint! But it looks good! I'm not sure why it takes more paint for walls then it does to paint furniture red.<br />You have a bit of work to do on your remodel, but I'm sure it will be well worth it.<br />We just redid my son's kitchen. It was fun to see what it looked like when we finished.<br />JudyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07901985293961748895noreply@blogger.com
