Pie Safe & Shelf Makeover

I've made a good start on transforming the kitchen furniture to go with the new wall color.  So far I've painted a pie safe, a mirror, a shelf, a server and a pantry cupboard.  Here is the "before" on the pie safe and shelf:  Ok, not the best picture, I took it at Christmas and was more concerned with what was on top than the pieces themselves.



And here is the "after":



White paint goes much better with the aqua walls than black.  Now I just have to paint the table, chairs, hutch and island.  I'm still torn about the cherry cabinets but I'm not planning to paint them.  For now.

Linking up to What's It Wednesday.

I agree, it looks great next to your yummy paint.

Slow down woman, you're putting me to shame :

I was just hemming the slip covers I made for my dining room chairs, and ran out of thread. Darn.

Oh my goodness. You want to paint all of that stuff? :0 What you have done so far looks good, but geez! You will be painting all year.
