OPEN YOUR MIND, EXPAND YOUR VISION, AND MAKE FRIENDS WITH KNOTTY PINE! IT'S "MID-CENTURY"! . See more ideas about knotty pine, knotty pine walls, knotty pine kitchen.
FacebookTweetPin4 Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a great week – I have been uber-busy transforming this naughty knotty pine room into something bright, fresh and inviting. It has been a challenge, because apparently, knotty pine doesn’t go gently into that goodnight. But, I’m beating painting it into submission. I look forward to sharing a tutorial to hopefully ease your pain if this project is on your home improvement list. Let’s look at the progress, shall we? Here it is before I got started. Ah, freshness! Although, I think to really appreciate it, you need to see the room when they were looking at the house. These homeowners really had vision. Another angle – before: Now: I was so excited to take a break from naughty knotty pine to slap a first coat of paint on the door. It’s this lovely, sunny yellow – Hawthorne Yellow, by Benjamin Moore. So, it’s coming together nicely. Now, if only I were a little more graceful with oil-based primer… Can I say again how much I loathe oil-based primer? What have you been up to this week?
Should you be painting knotty pine?. Don't be afraid to get rid of that orange knotty pine! You will be so glad you did this project.
FacebookTweetPin172 Hello! I’m finally done with the Room Full O’Knotty Pine, and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. Was it a big project? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely! I plan on doing a follow-up on this project once my friend and her family are moved in and settled. I know that she will put her own stylish stamp on this house, and it will be quite the transformation when it’s all said and done. First, a quick side by side before and after: Even without furniture, it’s off to a great start, don’t you think? Ahhh, so light, fresh and clean! They’re also getting new windows in a few weeks, which will be an impact all on its own. As a refresher, let’s see how far we’ve come, shall we? And a “before the before” photo (before they moved in). Another before angle: The jury is still out on the yellow door. I love it, my friend isn’t feeling it – she was thinking of something a wee bit brighter I think – and mentioned painting it white. At which time I grabbed her by the shoulders and tried to shake her back to her senses. I think […]

Knotty pine kitchen with Lacanche Cormatin and copper farm sink renovated to coordinate with original breakfast nook.
My laundry room is a very awkward space, with dark shiny knotty pine covering the walls. I had thought my only option (without removing) was to paint it, but I’m much more interested in the whitewashed or pickled look. Realizing that painting is likely much easier, I’m willing to put in a little e...
