Cooking Apple Green!

4 years ago
last modified: 4 years ago

PR sink and faucet are in. I looked at several different colors, and ended up choosing a Farrow and Ball color that I‘ve always wanted to use somewhere. Painter arrives tomorrow! This will go on the beadboard wall only, the rest stays as is, FnB Pointing.

Here is FnB’s ”Cooking Apple Green.”

    Wow, I love that sink. And I think the paint color is perfect.

    Great color. I've been looking for a tablecloth that color. Not easy to find. I love most shades of green. Hubs not so much, or I would use it much more in decorating. Love it, and also the sink.

    I love F&B colors, especially their greens and blues, and that sink, well, goes without saying, I also love wall mounted faucets, all lovely choices that play so nicely together.

    Sweet room. Your new color looks a lot like Sherwin Williams Lemongrass, the color of my den.

    One of my favorite Design, Inc. episodes used Cooking Apple and Blue Ground. I've never forgotten that paint color name.

    Can't wait to see the finished shots! Is that a removable stopper in the sink? Nice.

    Mtn, I really like it.


    One thing I noticed (?)

    The photo seems to show some knots in the beadboard (pickwick). If theose are knots in the pine board, you’ll want to be sure that the painter uses a blocker such as BIN.


    You probably already know this. I am not a know it all, nor do I aspire to be one. I’m just a generalist curiositer.

    Yes, I believe, unless I was misled, that they used a blocker initially, which is going on 12 years now. Bad news, I now have knots showing through. Good news, it's an excuse to paint the beadboard. We have a lot of BAs so this get very light use, and otherwise I could not justify paint!

    Mtn, that’s interesting. The knots are barely visible. So maybe those blockers don't last forever or need two coats. After 12 years, I think the freshening — it will look great. And what a nice color that works well w the existing. No need to justify and I hope your DH was onboard w it. How’s his SCOTUS case going (against landlords not renting to students? hahaha) Did you have to buy the girls their own town? Now, that would be cool. Imagine the requirements they could insist on.

    I love the sink and yummy wall color. Where's the finished photos??

    BTW, petalique, not to be a curmudgeon, but isn't that beadboard? I have Pickwick pine boards on my porch and I always understood that the Pickwick profile includes the wide concave area:

    Thanks, Indigo Rose. I just learned something. I thought they were the same thing.

    Petalique,

    My painter was here yesterday and we were discussing this. No matter what you use, it is always possible the knots will come back. Depends on a lot of factors, including climate.


    I like pickwick so much better! I've never even heard of it.


    Indigo, Will post when it's done.
