The...Hi Jeanine, thanks so much for your comments. The colour is Smoked Turquoise by Glidden, but I actually had the store make it with Dutch Boy paint. I've never used Glidden paint before and I'm sure it's a great paint, but I know that I love Dutch Boy, so I stuck with that. It is a cabinet and trim paint because I have painted upper kitchen cabinets with it in the past and it was leftover. It's great when you find a colour you love! I antiqued it with ebony stain, so it does make it a deeper, richer, colour.MacGIRLverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931643293282335693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8045829325828941652.post-52997271516925870212012-10-24T19:05:13.981-05:002012-10-24T19:05:13.981-05:00Thanks for looking Sylvia, I appreciate you taking...Thanks for looking Sylvia, I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
