A Little Add On to the Cabinetry Job

 

 Full cabinets
I am finished now with the painting of all the panels for this cabinetry. This is the best full view shot I could get in this room. There was no where to move the couch. The Add On piece is to outline each panel in blue. You will see that in a little bit, after I show you some close ups of each set of panels.

Focal point fish

I consider these fish and starfish panels to be the focal point. The 3 drawer fronts, done with the waves, are not secured back on yet. They are just resting on the top of the doors so I could take this picture.

The Add On is to edge all of these panels in blue. At first I did not think I would like the look, but as soon as I did it, I saw how it really made the panel designs pop, so now I like it! 🙂 It is VERY time consuming to outline each panel. Since this is a metallic paint, it takes two coats and a steady hand.

<Shellpanels outlined

I was able to complete outlining all of the bottom panels before I left at 3 pm today to get started on my 4th of July long weekend. It took me almost 2 hours to just do the bottom panels. I will return on Monday to finish the top panels and also outline the bathroom panels. I may put the sealer on then too, to save a trip. On my way home I stopped and treated myself to a giant hot fudge sundae to kick off the weekend! 😉

    This is just lovely Carol! You are so right, the larger scale of the single coral branch fits the overall design so much better than multi starfish or shells.
    I’d say that was a well-deserved sundae!
