Painted Kitchen Cabinets
Medium
As much as I loved our house the first time I walked into it, I wasn’t crazy at all about the kitchen cabinets. The old hardware was difficult to clean and the color of the cabinets just made the kitchen seem dark and dreary. New cabinets were not an option though since the cost wasn’t in our budget of improvements we needed to make in our new home (well, it was new to us!). Also, it really wasn’t a necessity like so many other projects within the house that needed immediate attention. So, I decided I would paint them. I only talked about this project for FIVE years until the week before a huge family get-together at our house motivated me to finally get it done.
Here is how they looked before...
Filled holes where old hardware was before sanding.
Here is how they look now. The paint and new hardware really brightened the whole kitchen!

My cabinets looked similar and I wanted dimension so I used the reproduction tin type back splash.
