I’m sorry Susan, I thought I answered it! The living room color was Palladian Blue – it’s a great color. Although since I’m always itching to change things up, I have repainted it Revere Pewter, which I love as well!

Looked for your reply on the living room color you used above but didn’t see it. What is it? Looks great! How has it held up? Thank you

I haven’t gel stained mine (but it’s on my to-do list). I have a friend who did hers and it turned out beautifully! Same process as the other gel stain projects, although I think she had to do extra coats to get the color she wanted. I would go with extra top coats too for durability. 🙂

Did you ever gel stain yours? I am hoping so! Send me the link if you did. I love to know the process.
Thanks

The color at the time was Palladian Blue (Benjamin Moore). I have since repainted it to Revere Pewter (also Benjamin Moore).

The breakfast bar looks amazing. I have been thinking of doing this with my island. Now I do believe I will! Also, if you don't mind sharing, what is the color of the walls in your kitchen? Everything just pops and looks so fresh!
Thanks for sharing!

I decided to gel stain my kitchen cabinets, but in Brown Mahogany instead. You can see the before and after pics here: http://www.alittlebitofkris.com/?p=186

After applying the stain did you wipe of the excess? I recently did my bathroom cabinets the same way and even with the same color gel stain! (I'm impressed at how tidy you were, I was a mess with that stuff!) Like the can instructed, I wiped off the extra stain after applying, but it didn't ever get as dark as I wanted. Finally on the 4th coat I decided not to wipe it. Maybe I was removing too much – it was my first time using gel stain. 🙂 Thanks.
