Spiffing up the Shelves

I was quite happy with putting up the shelves in the kitchen: but I did think they looked a little blah.

I had always intended to paint the nasty beige dish carousel: but I had thought it would be white to keep things feeling fresh and clean.

But I was craving colour, so, using paint I'd purchased for another project, I made it yellow, instead.

Then, it was actually an easy job of balancing it with dishes I already had on hand.

I'm much happier.

The other day my daughter said it was "much easier to put away the dishes, now."

Useful and beautiful?
Success.
