Painting kitchen cabinets

I have painted our oak kitchen cabinets except for the inside of the under counter ones. Luckily we have mostly drawers, but there are two corner cabinets that I can't reach. My question is, how do I paint the deep corner cabinets? I used a soft greyish white on the upper cabinets and a medium taupe on the lower ones. I want to use the white on the interiors so it will look brighter.

I made an extension for my paint brush when I did mine by taping a 1' brush backwards to the brush I wanted to use. It gave just enough reach to get the job done and also gave me a comfortable handle to hold onto. It looked kinda silly but I didn't care. You could also drape everything around the area in plastic and use a can of white spray paint if the brush extension doesn't appeal.

Great idea!!! I have been wracking my brain. Thanks so much! Somebody should make an extension for paint brushes similar to the ones for rollers!

I've stood on a ladder with a brush taped to the extension handle for the roller. I used duct tape so it would last through the 2 day paint process. Luckily I have 2 extension handles.

I used a small roller w an extension handle, doesn't give as great coverage as a brush but looks good inside the cabinet!

You can tape your extension on a slight degree as well. I had to for part of the job. It's a little weird but it works. 😊
