Yes, three years ago and before I wrote for Apartment Therapy or started loving. living. smalll. , my old kitchen was a semi-finalist in the Apartment Therapy's 2006 Fall Colors Contest. Reading back my answer is really funny - I was so *serious* but I did have some inspiration for those bright colors.
Click here to enter this year's newly named Apartment Therapy Room for Color 2009 Contest for a chance to win $4500 - wow! You have until 10.12.09 to get your most colorful rooms in the mix! Good Luck!
I love it! So bright and cheery. Congratulations!
