      I have had this crazy DREAM of doing this FOREVER because I loathe stainless steel, and JUST THIS WEEKEND told my hubby I want to try to paint the dishwasher and fridge the same color as the cabinets then painting the handles the same color as the cabinet hardware. I'm going to be watching this episode 1000 times!!! YOU ROCK!!!!

    Decades ago there was a sit-com called "Grace Under Fire". Every couple of weeks the main character, Grace, would be painting her fridge a different colour. She was working a dead end job living on the economic edge and trying to keep her kids fed. It was so hilarious. As a woman living with very, very, very limited means as I tried to finish my education, I felt like I had some sort of cosmic permission to make dumb decisions like painting my fridge! I used automotive paint. It was wonderful. My candy apple red fridge gave me great joy, so I painted the washing machine!

    Yes!!! I have heard of people painting their refrigerator! My parents had purchased an avocado green refrigerator in the mid 1970s. When they built their new house in 1980, they took their new refrigerator to an auto body shop to have it professionally painted a golden wheat color that coordinated with their new kitchen. It looked like they had bought a brand new refrigerator for their new house! The finish was super durable and It lasted a couple decades with no chipping and stayed looking gorgeous (well as gorgeous as a 1970s refrigerator could look) 😂

My dad always told me when I tried to rush a job,..."if you don't take the time to do it right the first time, when are you going to find the time to fix it?" Spend the time, and the $ the first time, so you don't have to spend more time and money another time. You do that well with all of your prep work, primer, etc. Thank you

    Gotta love a husband who's up for your shenanigans. It turned out great! It's one thing to take a beat up old fridge and paint it, but you had a nice one, so hats off to you! Can't wait to see what you do with the range hood!

    I painted my freezer & it has held up great. It was white & in my garage. It started to rust, so I sanded it and rolled it black. Love it. You will like your fridge! Good luck!!!❤

    That turned out gorgeous❣️ I never really expect one of your projects to not turn out great because they always do! Thanks for taking us with you on your trip, that must’ve been a ton of fun. You have a beautiful family. I’ve considered painting my daughter’s refrigerator until she’s able to get a new one. I’m thinking it should be easier because hers isn’t stainless steel, but you’ve given me the courage to go for it 😊☮️💟
