Painting the dresser PINK!!

During the Winter 'down under' I got tired of looking at my kitchen dresser, don't get me wrong, I love all the pretty pink rose china. I just was sad that I didn't have a window facing north to the sunlight (yes it's north down under). So I thought I'd paint the dresser pink to brighten the kitchen and compensate for the lack of sunlight.


It all started with a few paint chips- what shade of pink? mmm...

Decided on Dulux -Ballet Slipper pink

and couldn't wait to get the china back on to see it 'pop' against the pink background.



WHAT DO YOU THINK?


Ah... now I can have a 'cuppa'.

    Thank you for your kind comment on my blog. This has given me the opportunity to visit yours and your collection of rose tea cups is to die for. I have only a few so will probably have to buy a cup for the next gathering.

    Your rose teacups are beautiful...and I don't think one can ever have too much pink.

    Blessings to you,
