I have decided to paint a few rooms in our house, life being what it is the second I am done we will have to move because of work or something but that's ok. I hate the bathroom, kitchen and bedroom and don't want to invest a huge amount of money in making it look awesome since we don't own the house. It is a big old farmhouse, although we can only use the bottom half so the layouts a little weird.
Kitchen is big with lots of cabinets, for some reason my father in law decided to paint everything white, so it is boring and the paint is peeling, I was tempted to strip the cabinets but that sounds like to much work, I am thinking of painting the doors blue and trying something to make them look distressed, mostly so I can just paint over the doors without sanding them since there are lots! I think white and cobalt blue would look cool but not sure about that sort of blue paint. Any suggestions on paint or technique?
Bathroom is very small, a weird yellowy colour. I am thinking green since everyone does their bathroom in blue.
Bedroom is also small, boring white colour. I want lilac or red, not sure why.
Never actually did much painting on my own although I helped friend's paint rooms before, I know with any project expect it to take three times as long as you expect, anything else I should look at? is there any differences in types of paint?
