    is that a red???? If so Try Annie Sloan Chalk Paintâ„¢ Emperor Silk with dark wax ....lovely color and you will not need to presand or prime..just clean the cabinet , open the can and paint!

    www.anniesloanunfolded.com to find a retailer near you...insist on the original Chalk Paintâ„¢ and accept no substitutes! So easy

    everyone matches colors. Just be sure you get a good enamel paint in high gloss for best protection.

    Use sherwin williams oil based Pro classic with Satin or semi gloss finish that is what we use on all of our cabinet reface jobs. Prime first with an oil based primer and ligth sand with 220 sand sponge

    High gloss enamel gives a contemporary/modern feel. If you don't want that look, use an oil based satin or semi gloss as recommended by Superior.

    My cabinets are painted "paprika" and the walls "buttermilk" I love my kitchen with the bright colors. I had a decorator tell me years ago to use "food colors" in the kitchen, so I hunted in my spice cabinet for just the right color

    if you bring one of the door/drawers to Sherwin Williams, they can match it for you on the spot :)

    Its not red its orange. I have been looking at Annie Sloan Chalk Paint but the orange she has is like a pumpkin orange and the red you suggested is too red. I have tried four different colors of orange and nothing looks good. I think might change the color to a teal. Is the Annie Sloan Provence a teal blue? I have seen pictures of finished products and sometimes it looks teal and other times it looks like a baby blue. When using the Chalk Paint can you make it darker?

    Thanks for the great tips!

    Years ago I experimented with a MinWax water-based stain that looks exactly like that. Still have the project, side tables from an old dressing table/mirror. I don't know what (the color) was called, but its exactly that color.

    I wonder if you can stain over the old color? I will take a look at their web site to see if I can find a similar color.

    Thanks!

    The color looks close to the attached color just painted on the top of a new coffee table. Bought at Home Depot named "Crist Autumn". It's a softer than orange, like tangerine.

    It's a little darker than it looks in my photo. This was my first try with new iPad and have to get used to the camera.

    I think she means, "what color is this?" It's orange. And the walls look light light blue/green. Very pretty. Might hate it in a couple years though.

    Provence is not a baby blue...that would be Louis Blue. Provence is a gorgeous turquoise/teal blue and with dark wax is simply stunning!

    Do you know where I can buy sample sizes of this paint? I can open my own store now with all the paints I've purchased and didn't use!

    I think it was Cinnamon..also a little darker and opaque, unlike oil based stain which lets the grain show thru much more. I used it on rock maple which doesn't absorb the moisture like softer ...»

    woods, so it was like paint, but no chipping later because it does soak into the surface. Maybe a scratch repair marker or crayon would be good for a sample if you can't get a small sample can.
