So, last Friday, the painter who faux'd our family room added her touch to the range hood's wood surface:

The goal was to make the hood look metallic, like a burnished copper.

There is a little plaster layered in, so the finish has some texture. It's darker than the cabinets but nearly the same color as the curtains. Tones down the amount of yellow in the kitchen.

I like it and I'm glad she could do it for us last week.
