repainting the island

With a fair amount of free time on my hands,

but very limited access to supply,

in other words Quarantine,

I have been working on a couple home projects,

like painting the kitchen island!

Isn't just a lovely blue?!

It is the same blue (in the midnight hour by Benjamin Moore)

that I used on the library (leftover paints are the best!)

And since the kitchen is on the opposite to this wall,

I thought it would be a great accent!

I was also inspired by Cristina of Remodelando La Casa

where she painted her island blue!

My island already underwent a lot of transformations

over the years, from plain stained plywood, to "station wagon"

to white to finally blue

As I previously mentioned I had already repainted the kitchen blue, palladian blue by Benjamin Moore

My sister thinks I am going through my Blue period! It has always been one of my favorite colors...

the kitchen is a little bit messy, we do live here and it is quarantine time, so not too bad.
One thing I would like to update is the countertop of the island, I thought about it during the ORC baking corner (more than 3 years ago!) I would like a lighter countertop and reuse the black granite for the baking corner that still has its temporary butcher block... but that will have to wait longer!
In the meantime, here is a picture of my first Lily of the Valley:

(and Bosco)
After years of tries and failures, they are in bloom, last year, there were only leaves....
