Sunday Snapshot ... New ASCP Custom Color

It's been a long time since I talked to you about any of my painting projects.  I'm still working on stuff, I just haven't posted about any of it.  This morning, even though I'm just getting started on the project, I HAVE to share with you the new color of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint that I mixed up for my brother's kitchen cabinets.

 
 
The top color is made by mixing 3 parts Provence and 1 part Olive.  It is a lovely, clear blue-green.  I am using it with a base coat of Country Grey, and wet distressing with a Scotchbrite pad to give a gentle hint of age and use. 
 
With this sample door completed and approved, I can now get to work on the rest of the doors and drawer fronts later this week.  I'm so excited about doing a whole kitchen.  It's going to be so cool!
 
Happy Sunday, Everyone.  I hope it was a good one.
 
P.S.  There's a photo of the humble kitchen in THIS blog post from last month.  I have lots of photos of what my brother has done to disassemble and rearrange the kitchen so far, and I will continue to take Before, During, and After photos of my part of the process.
