kitchen redux

So here are some pics of what we have been working on and the progression of the kitchen. This was a lot of walls and corners and edging, but it is done. The room is brighter like we hoped, though we are definitely appreciating the upsides of the previous reddish color now. There are some serious second thoughts on the shade of yellow here (Vanilla Custard for you Behr fans). This pics are actually a little better than we think it looks in person. It isn't bad, and as we add some accents around the windows and art on the walls it is looking better. The major issue we have is probably that it didn't solve the major issue of our kitchen, which is that it needs a serious lighting redo... we took the more inexpensive try at getting some more ambient light.... anyway, two days x four people (D's parents are here) x 6 coats of paint (2 primer + 2 topcoat on the walls, and 2 on the ceiling) = glad to be done (for now).
