a lovely client considering a major kitchen overhaul for her gorgeous 1920’s-era home asked for two different looks using the same paint color.  so, here are two options for her…layered, distressed and glazed, or painted & waxed (with old knobs out of the dish, just to test-drive.)   thoughts?

  2. I personally love tha one on the left, but i like the worn imperfect vibe~ thats just me! Good luck

  3. the right. not a question.
    it is classic and more timeless and more in keeping with a 1920’s house-so it won’t look dated.
    so very beautiful…i love the paint color and the knobs….sigh…

  4. LOVE that distressed look on the left! Everything you do is just fabulous Stephanie!
