fabulous red kitchen
my friends lis and zu and i painted the kitchen a "fabulous red". exactly the shade i had in mind. but bad quality paint.
note: do not buy american tradition (at) paint from lowes. esp. in satin finish and for smooth walls. it thickens in the tray, does not give smooth, even coverage, and is drippy. and it's not very cheap either. for comparable expenses, you will do well to buy sherwin williams contractor grade paint - in flat (which is surprisingly eggshell-y) or satin finish. it goes on like a dream. is perfect. i have tried kelly moore, at and sw. latter is by far the best.
