Color Combo: Milk Chocolate with Strawberry Pink

090908_chocolatebrown.jpgIf you're on a new diet/exercise regimen, let us begin by apologizing for posting this. But honestly, we just couldn't help ourselves! Normally, the idea of painting a cabinet a medium brown doesn't appeal (we heart wood grain); but in this case, this milk chocolate shade in a high gloss finish is just too delicious--it almost looks like the molding and details on the cabinet are indentations on a candy bar.

 
 

Also noteworthy: the light strawberry pink that was used for the inside is just a light enough shade that the whole cabinet doesn't teeter into a hokey ice cream parlor look; and we still like the idea of painting the wall the same as the cabinet.

My whole office is strawberry pink and chocolate brown. It is both classy and delicious. And my favorite room in the house!

Pretty - and I don't think a painted interior would work if the exterior of the cabinet hadn't been painted.

I want candy!
Nice look and I would also think a few darks in brown and black would be nice with it.

Yeah I dunno about this one. The office across the hall was painted Pepto pink and we'll say chocolate brown. Too close for comfort.
