One tester pot goes a long way.....

Here

for quite a while now I have had a slight obsession with black and white interiors such as these ones pictured here, and I particularly like part, or, a  whole wall painted black.

So last night, totally on the spare of the moment I opened the tester pot of Fired Earth charcoal paint that had been sitting on the side for a while now, and did a little test patch on the wall behind my dresser (you know the one, the dresser  that is waiting to be painted white) which ended up spreading across the whole wall.... oops... how did that happen......well almost the whole wall, while painting behind the fridge I discovered a damp patch on the bottom of the wall so had to stop there, though I am very impressed with how well this paint covers, nearly an entire wall on a tester pot.

  I did think that it might make the kitchen feel darker than it already is, but actually it seems to make it look brighter.  Whether or not the colour stays will have to be seen,  personally I like it, but the rest of the family are not too keen, though our Kitchen is badly in need of a total revamp, so in my mind anything is an improvement!
