Re: Mechanical troubles/ frig color

When my kids were pre-teenagers, we had an old, very ugly fridge in the basement, mostly for soda and beer. We bought six or seven cans of different colored spray paint, and told the kids to go at it. It looked like a New York subway car in a matter of minutes.

I didn't like the color of our frig, but although we
could use a new one,
it's not a priority.  Our other appliances are white
& black (I am  personally
not fond of stainless steel look).   The frig is
beige.  I painted the doors
with black board paint.  Always wanted a  memo type
board that was large, the
calendar and note pad just weren't  enough.  I
absolutely love the black board
paint on the frig.  It  matches with the other
appliances and it is very
functional.  I painted a  face of a cook on the side
and use it as a menu board
when we have company or  wine tastings.  Otherwise
we use it for grocery lists,
etc.  It works  wonderfully and the paint sticks
very well.  I used a special
primer, and  from what I can tell, any paint would
work on it after that.  I
think it  would be more difficult to pain the inside
of an oven or such....but a
 frig....go for it!!!!!!!   So far, our frig has
been a big hit and we  love
it!

I'm  actually hoping

this fridge dies soon, so I can  justify

getting a

new one that is not

such a hideous color.  Live and learn- word

advice- order appliance

that you like- not  that match the kitchen

color

you  hate!
