back in black


Call me crazy but I think I want to paint this wall black. Is that a bad idea? I photoshopped what this side would like like (very sketchily, don't look too close...). I don't know if it goes with the wood drawers/kitchen that face this wall, but I think it could work. No? Thoughts? Other colors?

UPDATE! A good point brought up by my dad - is it possible to paint the white back over black paint? Since I'm renting I will have to paint it back when I move out, so would I be creating way too much work by doing this? Anyone?

maybe a brown? not too dark, or a wine color.
I think to paint over black you have to use paint remover before and then scratch it of! i've done that in metals but i don't really know about walls! :)
don't really know if i'm helping!

seriously, don't do it. i agree with your dad. SO much trouble and then again another set of trouble to re-do it at the end. painting is always more fun in your head than it is in real life.
