Hi , great job !!! Our kitchens were so similar!!! I also painted my cabinets and countertops , I was looking for a method that didn't need sanding , I was going back and forth between chalk paint or a hybrid paint by Benjamin Moore, called advance paint , I went with the advance paint because I wouldn't have to seal it either. My Reno was about $300 as well , covered painting materials ( I used the same paint for my counter , but used primer on them ) a new faucet , beadboard and glue for the cabinets and flooring ! When I finished there was an appliance sale 40% off , my husband surprised me with getting the appliances I wanted ! It's a whole new kitchen !

Have a question about this project?
What specific flooring product did you use?
There is a product made by a company named Allure that is available at Home Depot.
We used it on the kitchen and bathroom floors in our rental as we couldn't Stand looking at the little pink flowers printed on the vinyl flooring. It turned out Great! I'd reccomend it to anyone wanting to update on a budget!
I need to refinish or paint my kitchen cabinets that have polyurethane top coat. How do I remove the polyurethane?
You don't remove the polyurethane. Just clean with a degreaser or sand lightly and your first coat of paint should be a primer. Let the primer dry and then paint with a small roller. Two coats should do it.
Do I use special paint to cover counter tops?
On my website link I give the link to the company we purchased the special countertop product from. It has held up well through the years.
