I love easy projects using spray paint! I’m going to show you how to update your kitchen accessories using stainless steel spray paint. Spray paint is great for thrift store projects too!
I love the power of spray paint, don’t you?
Stainless Steel Spray Paint
A new accessory holder was needed for my kitchen. This very large glass jar is perfect for the task. All it needs is a little TLC (spray paint)
Project done originally in 2011 🙂
Glass Jar Painted With Stainless Steel Spray Paint
How to Prep Your Knife Block
After the paint dried, I replaced the metal tag. It looks so much better with the stainless steel spray paint than it did with the wooden knife block.
Now I have matching kitchen accessories! I encourage you to rethink your purchases. Do you already have something at home that could be redone with spray paint?
Check out how I painted my kitchen floor, then later updated the color.
And FINALLY–I have new appliances, a new floor and UPDATED this island ONE MORE TIME!

LOVE the Stainless Steel projects, great job and a huge inspiration for me. The kitchen looks great 👍🏻
The jar and knife block look sharp!! I found myself in love with the Hamilton Beach Eclectics small appliances when I first saw them (back in 2005-6?) with their vintage style & cool colors to match. I prefered the apple green and butter yellow shades, and a couple years ago decided not to wait until I could afford it to make my refrigerator match, so I spray painted my existing fridge a pretty apple green (one of these days I will be able to afford a Big Chill in a pretty shade of green, but until then, my Frigidaire with its Kyrlon Key Lime pie color will serve the purpose!!
Love the knife block. Can’t wait to try it, especially since I have two and they don’t match. I also have a suggestion for you. I took the swirly wooden apron off from over my sink. In two minutes my kitchen looked a lot more updated. Just an idea. I love your new look!
You’re not the first person to mention removing the cornice/valance on my kitchen cabinets. There is an ugly light fixture I would have to deal with first. Maybe down the road…
thanks Mary!

Hi- The kitchen looks great. What type of paint did you use on the floor? My “cave kitchen” could use this treatment!
