Young House Love » Our Second House » Painted Wood Paneling – Woot. It’s Done!

| By Sherry Petersik | June 30, 2011 | 854 Comments

Painted Wood Paneling – Woot. It’s Done!

About a week ago (after we painted our brick fireplace) our kitchen looked like this:

Before Priming

Then we removed the desk and upper cabinet (that will be in the way of our big future doorway to the dining room) and after one coat of not-covering-at-all primer it looked like this:

Priming Step1

Then we finally got the primer thing right after dealing with maddening bleed-through issues thanks to two days of applying coat after coat and three different types of primer (more on that here):

Primd Ready For Paint

And now it looks like this, although it reads a bit more yellow in these photos than in person (it’s a smidge greener in real life).

Kitchen Table Wide After

It’s definitely a warm golden green tone (aka: grellow). Sort of like the color of an artichoke heart.

Other Side Final

There’s definitely a lot more to do in there, but we’re so glad to have the whole prime-and-paint-the-paneling thing checked off. Here’s a fun little video that encapsulates the entire process in three short minutes. Which is more than a little ironic because it took us just a wee bit longer in real life (you know, just a smidge). Just convert those minutes to days. See it below or here on YouTube.

As for the paint color, after a decent amount of debate (and some pretty thorough consideration of the adjoining rooms that will be seen along with the kitchen) we opted for our new favorite color, which turned out to be Sesame 381 by Benjamin Moore (color matched to Olympic No-VOC paint in semi-gloss).

We were inspired by this kitchen (found here via Pinterest) since our cabinets will eventually go white, possibly along with our backsplash.

We chose this warm yellow-green color because we want the kitchen to be bright and happy (there aren’t any windows to the outside world – just one that looks into our sunroom) and it was suuuuuuper dark before we painted that paneling. We also knew the room could take a decent amount of color because:

  • it won’t have any big long walls remaining when we add the extra-wide doorway to the dining room across from the fireplace (just slivers of wall here or there will remain, so the color won’t be overwhelming)
  • we’ll be painting the cabinets glossy white later in this phase of our little kitchen makeover along with un-busying the backsplash (which will further temper the color on the walls)
  • we’ll be adding an island in the place of our too-small table someday (with a different countertop and most likely a non-white base color to keep things interesting and layered)
  • this room is surrounded by the dining room, the hallway, and the living room, which all have soft gray walls (so we wanted this space in the middle of them all to have some cheerful color going on)

When it came to our swatch-selecting technique we just hung up a ton of them and looked at them at all times of day to see which one we preferred. As for why we chose this swatch specifically, we decided:

  • this golden-green tone will tie into the chartreuse curtain tones in the dining room and the cheerful green tone in our shaggy living room rug without being too matchy-matchy across the board (we didn’t want the exact same tone of green everywhere for fear that it would look a bit too “orchestrated”)
  • a warm yellow kitchen is always a classic choice, but this color feels modern and crisp with the green undertones (and it’s not completely terrible with the oak cabinetry, which will stay for a little while)
  • this tone is in Sue the Napkin – albeit a bit darker (a sure sign it’ll work with our whole house palette really well)
  • unlike some of the other softer greens and greeny-gold tones that we considered, it really makes the white trim pop (lighter swatches didn’t have the same crisp effect next to the fireplace or the trim)
Paint Color

Here’s how it looked with the first coat going up around the fireplace (thanks to all that primer prep– we had really awesome coverage). Again, it’s looking more yellow and less green than it does in person in these photos, but you can really see how the white pops and how it turned a dark and brown-everywhere space into a sunny and bright room in the middle of the house.

Painting Fireplace First

We also decided that it was high time we switched out all of the “bisque” colored vents, outlets, and light switches.

Outlets Uninstalled

So we grabbed a bunch of crisp white ones from Lowe’s, turned off the power, removed the old ones, connected the new wires the same way they were connected to the previous switches, added the outer switchplates, and turned the power back on. The whole switch swap took about twenty minutes. So much better:

Vents Back On

Some people opt to paint their vent covers so they blend in more, but for now we’re happy to leave ours crisp and new since we’re so used to old drippy painted-over covers (clean paint-free ones kind of feel like a luxury). Who knows if we’ll decide to add a few thin and not-drippy coats of paint to blend those vents in later though. We’ll keep you posted.

Oh and it’s really fun to go back and look at our fireplace, which originally looked like this:

Bart Before Front

Bart Before With Chair

Then we removed the old unused wood stove and painted the brick, and it looked like this:

Mirror After Straight

Mirror After Side

It’s amazing how much painted paneling can freshen things up even more:

Fireplace Done Otherside

Painted Fireplace Done

And we love how things like the white frames and the round mirror above the fireplace layer right in with the glossy white trim and beams:

Mirror Wall Paint Best

Burger likey (he knows how to work that runway):

Table After

Oh yeah and see those pink hydrangeas? I wish I could say that we grew those, but they’re from the store. We figured to celebrate all that priming and painting we could spring for something soft and sweet, so these little pink snowball-looking-guys had me at hello (that’s an old vase from Target btw):

Hydrangeas

As for the opening to the dining room, here’s where it’ll be (it will line up exactly with the dining room window on the other side for balance):

Wall Opening

We learned that we’ll need a permit to knock out so much of that load bearing wall, so it sadly won’t be anything we can do very quickly (and we’ll definitely be leaning on some pros for help). But we can’t wait to tackle it as soon as we can get through all the permit business and hunt down the right expert for the job.

Now for some before & after bid-ness. Just because that’s my favorite part. Here’s the kitchen as it looked on moving day about six months ago:

Moving1

And here it is now (still can’t wait to add that island, paint those cabinets, and upgrade the floor & appliances someday though):

Kitchen Table Wide After

Moving day again (yes, one of those lights was out):

Moving2

And now:

Other Side Final

The crazy thing is that these photos were taken around the same time of day so it definitely demonstrates how much lighter and more cheerful the space feels now that the dark paneling is a thing of the past. Oh and here’s the budget breakdown:

  • Olympic Premium No-VOC primer from Lowe’s: $12
  • Behr 2-in-1 Primer + Paint (in semi-gloss white): already owned
  • Kilz Clean Start No-VOC Primer from Home Depot: $20
  • Olympic No-VOC paint (in Sesame by Benjamin Moore) from Lowe’s: $22
  • New vent and outlet covers from Lowe’s: $43
  • Brushes/rollers/tape/paint tray: already owned
  • Total: $97

So there you have it. The kitchen madness has officially begun. As we mentioned here, we’re definitely going to do this in phases (gotta save our pennies and just take things on as we can afford them). But it should be a whole lot of fun. As in, more fun than a barrel of monkeys. And definitely more fun than priming that paneling five hundred times. Do any of you guys have long term kitchen plans like painting the cabinets or adding an island or upgrading the flooring or making some overhead lighting switches (we’re definitely in need of some of that too)? Oh the possibilities…

Such a small change and it totally makes the gallery wall behind it so much more modern. What a fun post to read- And you totally have inspired me to paint my fireplace someday.

    I’ve got to admit, at first I was concerned when I saw your inspiration photo, and then when I saw your original photo of the new color, but once I saw the video, I was sold! I think the video (at least to me) depicts your color in a more greener hue than the lemon-lime going on in your photos. It looks so much better!

    Just think of how bright this room is going to pop when you’ve finally got that doorway installed and you’ve got natural light pouring in from the bay window!!!

    Question – Do you think the bisque appliances will look strange with white cabinets? Asking because I love the idea of white cabinets but have bisque appliances and I’m worried they might look dingy next to glossy white cabinets.

      June 30, 2011 at 10:59 am

      Yes! We definitely plan to replace those with energy star rated models in the future (since they don’t match and are a bit worse for wear). I would either paint your cabinets an off-white color or replace your bisque appliances for the whole dingy thing (it definitely would be noticeable). Hope it helps!

      We have a bisque range that I was worried about when we painted all our cabinets white. It’s actually not as bad as I thought! I guess all the white sort of bounces off it and it looks less dingy than before.

      John used a standard smooth surface roller and applied some serious pressure to get into those grooves. It helped that ours were pretty shallow since it’s that fake not-thick paneling stuff.

    It looks amazing!!! I love the cheerful color! It’s so hard to believe that $97 can make such a difference (plus a lot of sweat, and maybe some tears). I think it will be really neat to see how the green color contrasts with the soft gray in the dining room once you open up that wall. I also can’t wait to see it with white painted cabinets.

    I’ve been mulling over the island a bit. Do you know what kind of island you would like to build/buy yet? Because the island will essentially be separated from the rest of the kitchen with a pass through area, I’m thinking that maybe a more traditional chunky “closed” island might not be the best idea. Maybe a more open style would be better. Not sure though. Will the purpose of the island be a food prep area (where counter height is important) or more of a casual eating/sitting area? I’d love to see some inspiration photos once you start thinking about that project down the road.

      June 30, 2011 at 10:17 am

      As for the island, the reason we’re going that route is because once we open the doorway to the dining room there’s a big round table in there (so another smaller table right next to seems redundant). We can pack it with storage on the side that faces the other cabinets and use the island top for workspace and casual dining and bring in some fun stools. So it’ll in effect be an eating area with some bonus storage for lesser used stuff (and plates and servingware since it’s right off the dining room). As for if it’ll be an open light-looking island or something chunky, we’re not sure at all, but we might tape things off and even use Photoshop to envision different options. Can’t wait!

      I love the idea of a stainless steel prep table! You would need one with an overhang on at least one side so that people could still sit there and tuck their legs under the table if the space will also be used for sitting/eating.

      June 30, 2011 at 11:03 am

      Yeah- we thought we could remove the top too and build a smaller base to create an overhang if it didn’t come ready-made like that. Could be fun!

I plan to rip out the vinyl floors and replace with wood, put in all new cabinets, doubling my cabinet space, add a dishwasher and a garbage disposal and actually take away a little bit of my kitchen (which is rather larger for a 1930s house) to double the closet space in my bedroom!
