So I have these beautiful window seats in a few of my rooms.

Not only do the rooms need some paint, white just wont cut it with kiddos, these rooms also need a little updated.
I think the wood "dates" the house.
So after a bit of research and some prep work, I decided to get this room into shape!
First up, I painted the room.
A beautiful gray color from Glidden called Pebble Gray.
I am in love with it! Not too blue, not too dark, just fresh and bright!
Next, I removed the cabinet door fronts from the window seat and taped off all the walls and inside of the seat.



After I had done all the prep work {cleaning the cabinets, taping off the walls, and removing all hardware} I got out all the paint and started.

Gripper is my new favorite thing. I didnt have to sand the cabinets at all. It dries supper fast and adheres easily without scraping.

After two coats of Gripper and 2-3 coats of Satin white paint, I was ready to drill some holes for hardware.
Have you seen this product from the Home Depot?
It makes adding hardware easy and even.

I love the way it turned out.


I used a flat sheet to cover the seat cushion. I had my mom sew me a giant pillow case to fit the bench seat cushion. That way I could easily remove it when it needed washed.

Ahhhhh.....so much better!

This room has a whole new look!

Loves,
Bon
