Title: What I've been up to...
Post by: jwv on September 19, 2006, 08:57:04 PM
Here are some pics of the kitchen cabinets I've been painting in preparing to sell this place. They were just the standard oak builderr's cabinets-standard issue, in this development.  Probably 90% of the houses here have them. This is my attempt at the WOW  :o factor.  The red isn't quite as red as it looks, more Mahogany.  In our other house we bought used cabinets and I painted them- they looked great.  Just an idea that can save a lot of money. the white island is not beadboard, just painted to look like it.

You can see the original cabinets here:http://strawbaleredux.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_strawbaleredux_archive.html

It looks great Judy! I like those cabinets. I've refinished a few and it's a lot of work, isn't it?

Your kitchen looks nice.

Refinishing ain't one of my favorite tasks.

But it does look nice.  After it's done.
