Painted pantry wins FrogTape Paintover Challenge

North Carolina DIYer and blogger Tasha Agruso has been named the winner of the FrogTape Paintover Challenge. Agruso submitted a pantry makeover that stole the hearts of online voters and veteran interior designer and DIY television personality Taniya Nayak. 

In her design, Agruso mixed vibrant colours, from bright pink and blue to green and yellow, and made a bold statement in an unexpected place: her walk-in pantry. As the winner, she'll take home the $5,000 cash grand prize for her daring design and will get to partner with Nayak to 'Paint it Forward' with Special Spaces, a not-for-profit that creates dream bedrooms for children with cancer. 

"I love sharing colourful, doable DIY projects, and my pantry makeover for the Paintover Challenge is just one example of a project anyone can easily execute," says Agruso. "The mission of Kaleidoscope Living (her blog) is to help others create a home they cherish, which makes the opportunity to partner with Special Spaces and Taniya that much more rewarding." 

Next month, Agruso, Nayak, and volunteers from Shurtape Technologies will work to design and build a dreamy bedroom for a child battling cancer in the Cleveland area. FrogTape will donate $15,000 to cover the costs of the makeover.
