Colorful Kitchen Cabinets

The kitchen is the center of family activity in most homes. Make it fun and colorful, let your imagination run wild! This one was part of a whole home remodel but we can update cabinets or add as much color as you like.

Wood grained garage doors are extremely popular and add a lot of curb appeal to your home. Hinge straps and handles can be easily added to give an old style barn door effect.

Interior painted stripes- fun with color.

Stripes can be an easy way to replicate wallpaper. This is a child’s playroom, hence the bright colors.

Sponge finish on bedroom walls can lend a rich, wallpaper feel, generating more interest and movement.
