Bakers Rack Re-Do

I loved this bakers rack in the kitchen of my old house. The original cream color looked great against the yellow and blue walls. Now in our new house, the walls are beige. The rack blended in and looked drab. So what's a girl to do? Spray paint it black!!!


Before (the counter top and drawer have already been removed in preparation for painting):


After:
It still needs a new knob but I think the after picture is MUCH better!
