| The original cabinets (light maple) |
So my latest project was painting my cabinets in the master bath. Originally, they were a light maple color with shiny silver knobs. The transformation was AMAZING!
 |
| The primer is on after sanding down the cabinets! |
 |
| gray-tinted Bullseye primer used Once primer is dry, sand again, and start painting!! I first used a roll brush, but found that I liked the look of using the paint brush better. |
 |
| 1st coat of black satin latex paint, sand a little, then apply 2nd coat. |
 |
| Distress the edges and corners as much as you like, ( I like a lot of distressing)! Try and get through all the paint to reveal the wood underneath. Stain those areas, I chose a darker brown stain pen that I bought at Lowes. The stain pen is definitely less messy and easy to apply! I finished by using Paste Finishing Wax, also bought at Lowes. They turned out GREAT!!! I do need to give credit to a tutorial that I found on Pinterest for giving me a few pointers... www.yellowcapecod.com |
