No, I am not revealing the dining room yet. Patience my friends. I am going to share another small change made in the dining room. With the new wall color I had to change the background color in the hutch. I know I know, but I had to soften the green I had in there.
This is the original green which was very bold.
This is the new softer color.
This is one of three different red transferware plates I purchased with my amazon gift card I won.
I will show you the other two soon.
I love the scenes on this plate.
This is one of my newer platters with these sweet little flowers.
The new color is Thyme Green by Sherwin Williams and is the same color I already used in the back of my bookcases in the great room.
I am loving the new look of this room.
Thanks for taking time to guess the color I chose. I got tickled at some of the choices. A few of you were correct. The reveal is coming soon!
Have an awesome week.

Love it, Kim! The new color compliments your beautiful dishes so well.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet :)
ReplyDeleteThe green is beautiful, I love it.
ReplyDeleteOh Kim, everything is just going to look perfect, I just know it :) I have a similar shade of green in my Living Room.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the reveal!
You breeze through projects like a soft tornado! Wow! I am so inspired by you with each new project.
ReplyDeleteI love the soft green backcloth you used. It makes your white and red transferware pop!
I think your silver flatware in the ironstone and other containers looks lovely. I just may use that idea with some of my odds and ends silver. So chic!
As usual, a delightful post, my friend!

This color is so pretty! Can't wait to see the reveal!
ReplyDeleteI really love that color Kim. I have to be honest I was not a fan of the green, it seemed bright, but I thought it was my monitor, because I have seen colors different on other posts. But now that I see the new green, I really love it!
ReplyDeleteLove the new color. It enhances everything in your hutch.
ReplyDeleteCindy
Green!!! alright!!! I love green almost any green for that matter. How fun, can not wait to see the reveal. Dying to know what got you going to paint it green. I need some of your ambition!!! Kathysue
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by for my giveaway for my one year blogaversary, it is hard to believe that it has been a year. Didn't you start the day after I did? We started at Rms, then Micasa and now here we are. Fun journey, xo Kathysue
Ha! When I saw the subject title I thought Holy Cow! I can't even get that silly bed painted and Kim has the dining room finished already.LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the new green and those plates! Beautiful!
Love the new green color. May have to get some of this paint and use it somewhere. I am so excited to see the new room!!!
ReplyDeleteWaiting for the reveal Kim, what you have for a teaser for us looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI love these colors and certainly cannot wait for the reveal!!!! Xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteI have a very similar color in my kitchen and dining room by Sherwin Williams called rye green. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI really wish you'd come to my house with paintbrush in hand. You paint more in month than we do in 3 years! I am so behind around here...going to read backwards and see what you've been up to. Between the trip, my dad being here and having the little ones with a couple holidays squeezed in...I just gave up!
ReplyDeleteI love the plates ,I am crazy about toile patterns at the moment .

It's so surprising how much of a change a different shade of green can make. Very pretty. Love your transferware.
ReplyDeleteLove the green with that pitcher!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the reveal ~ everything you do is beautiful! I love the new green in the hutch although I did like the bolder green with the prior golden/yellow walls. Green has been a favorite color of mine for years. Where do you find the time, Kim to do all you do? Can't wait! Tammy
ReplyDeleteThe color goes well with your dishes. They are gorgeous. I like that little raspberry can!
ReplyDeleteI call it perfect green. Looks wonderful as always.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful green! The colour is perfect. I can't wait for the reveal

Kim,
ReplyDeleteSo funny...my husband and I just made a list of paint projects...mostly ones we need to finish! Look forward to seeing it completed.
Hmmmm - I wonder if my guess was a correct one!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the new softer green and LOVE, LOVE the transferware!
ReplyDeleteLove the new color green and your displays are lovely. Your new red transferware is stunning, such pretty scenes. I can't wait to see the dining room. I am sure it is gorgeous. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeletegrfeat new color.....but now i have to change my guess...i thought your were going to paint a green on the wall to go with the original green on the hutch.....
ReplyDeletenow i am not sure what color to guess!! maybe the color of the red transferware?

LOVE the new green - I liked the green background, but I agree it was bright, this new green is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI really like the new green. Of course I liked the old one too! Can't wait for the reveal.
ReplyDeleteA very pretty shade of green, love your new dishes!
ReplyDeleteLove the muted green...and.. with your new dinnerware too... I am SOOO going with red. A deep muted form of it.

ReplyDeleteOh, the suspense...I do like the color of the interior of your china cabinet...You are fired up for this year!!! Wish I had your energy!!!
ReplyDeleteKim, you tease you! I love the toned-down green. It looks almost exactly like the color paint we have in the living room and my dining-turned-sewing room. Such a tranquil color...
ReplyDeleteBrenda
I have to say, Kim, I can't wait to see the walls!
ReplyDeleteI love the color you are using in the cupboard. Cannot wait to see the full reveal!
ReplyDeletehugs

I love the softer green. I can't wait to see the whole room!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a tease, Kim! LOL! Love the hutch color, it's very elegant...seems like whatever color you pick...I always like it! Wish I could pick paint colors so well! Can't wait to see the wall color!!
ReplyDeleteI am happy that you found my blog, and in that way I have found yours. I love your home!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are as very brave gal to paint bright colors. I am always so afraid of color, sticking with mostly shell white and light wheat.
They always say....it's only paint.... but someone has to do the painting...not that much fun.
I wish you a very happy and healthy New Year and happy PAINTING!!!!!
Warm wishes, Evi
PS. I love the plates with the farm scenes. Have some in white with black and yellow.
Kim, This is a pretty shade of green. Love your transferware plate.
ReplyDeletexo,

I am way behind in my blog reading so I didn't know the plan to repaint. That's so exciting!!! I can't wait to see the final reveal! The new green looks beautiful in your hutch.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fresh shade of green! I love it! Happy decorating my friend! ♥
ReplyDeleteThat new shade of green is one of my favorites. I have a lot of decor pieces in that color and I also wear that color. Can't wait to see the reveal. I'm venturing a guess that it's a khaki color. It will be gorgeous no matter what color, because you always choose well.
ReplyDeleteCAS
Hi Kim, thanks for stopping by and for your sweet comment. I just love your hutch and all that you've filled it with. The strawberry creamer is charming! Hugs tami
ReplyDeleteLove the color Kim, reminds me of my sunroom at dusk...looks terrific with your dishes and silver.
ReplyDeleteLove the new color Kim, looks so pretty with all of your dishes in there. Cant wait to see the whole room transformed.
ReplyDeleteI love the new shade of green Kim. It does soften it up and looks great with you new dishes. What a great purchase with your gift card!
ReplyDeleteI have been away from the computer so I'm trying to catch up. Hope your Christmas was wonderful. Have a Happy New Year!
Love that shade of green! Your dishes really are pretty. Looking forward to the big reveal.
ReplyDeleteJane
This softness of green color is so pretty, Kim! Love your hutch and all your pretties in it. Now I'm patiently awaiting your reveal!
ReplyDeletebe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Kim, I guess I missed the question. LOL But I sure do like what I'm seeing in these little peeks. Can't wait to see your complete room. I know it is going to be gorgeous!
ReplyDelete~ Sarah
ohh, loving the little bit you have shown us...the color looks so soft and amazing~ can't wait for the reveal! Beautiful plates- love the red! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I know that color well! It's the color we're planning on painting our dining room! After seeing how lovely it looks on your hutch, I'm more convinced than ever, it looks so lovely! We used one of the darker colors, Rosemary, I think, on our living room a few years ago, and it is the most beautiful color, so soothing, no matter what the lighting is like. I don't think you can go wrong with any color on that palette!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it true that one change always leads to a string of others? LOL! The hutch is beautiful, Kim. The color and all of your wonderful collection of dishes and SILVER! =)
ReplyDeleteKim I love the new color - it's so much warmer and the makes a nice backdrop for the white and red.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the whole room!
xoxo,
Kim

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty and much softer color! I truly love it - Can't wait for the reveal!
ReplyDeleteI had to scroll back to get the history here!!! I don't know what color you are painting but my guess would be a softer more mudded color. Can't wait to see what it is!
