I am finished decorating the mixer... for now.
Lessons learned:
 | Front view - two bands of flames on the top, one band along the base. |
 | Top view - the white tail cone fared poorly among early surveys. One person said it looked like the mixer had "tan lines." I redid it in red, and added a stripe along the to of the mixer. |
 | Side view - I added flames around the outside of the bowl holder and the base. If I'm ever inclined to spend more time on this, I would paint the power switch red and add a special "11" setting. |
 | The food processor was a little jealous. Since I had 25' of flame decal left, it got a little decoration. |
 | ... as did the Crock Pot |
 | Perhaps the Tivo is next? |
- White appliance paint shows scuffs and dirt.
- Next time, I will search a little harder for the flames decals. This dude sells KitchenAid-specific decals sets for slightly more than I spent for the three cans of paint and the car decals.
- Don't paint on a breezy day. I had to redo two areas when the newspaper blew up (and stuck) onto the tacky paint.
- Yellow paint and red decals looks the best.
