Cupboards

I mentioned in a post earlier this week that I painted my cupboards.  I think it turned out nicely.  The only problem is I forgot to take a picture of my before!  I got on my computer knowing when my kids get the camera that they take pictures either of themselves or objects in the house.  I found a before picture!  A little blurry but remember it was probably taken by a 4 or 5 year old :)


OK... right?  Nothing wrong with them.  Here is the after....


Hooray!  So much better!  I plan on adding black handles/knobs onto the doors.  Just need to find the perfect ones!   This project wasn't hard.  It just took a whole lot of time and work.


Wanna come over?  We can just sit and look at my new cupboards :)

  13. They really are beautiful! I am planning to paint mine this year too. What ratio did you use for the glaze/paint? I think they say it's clear because it dries clear. Thanks for sharing!

  14. I was planning to paint the cabinets in our old house (had the same ones you did and hated them) but Nate would never let me. Now I wish I had done it the day we moved in! Looks great, can't wait to see them in person. When's the house re-warming party?
