Help with decision on painting cabinets
Comments (16)hey new.bee, Just wanted to say as a former long term renter I would very much appreciate you wanting to update this apartment. I would prefer white, not cream. The white is more modern to me. Even though the kitchen is teensy, I would love the look of your third pic....black bottom cabs with white uppers and modern door hardware. The dark bottom cabs will be much easier to clean. My own, soon to be updated, kitchen is also small...although not as tiny as yours. Still, it's small. A galley kitchen 10 1/2 x 7. It too, will have white uppers with dark bottom cabs. I love a tiny kitchen, less to clean "If you go too white, it will seem stark and uninviting." I feel just the opposite of this...and I would find creamy white to be less modern and a not nearly as appealing to me. I rented a small house for 20 years.. I put brand new, updated,, carpet in 3 times. Put down new kitchen floor, twice. Replaced all the awful, cheap builder's grade light fixtures in every room. Put a new vanity with a new faucet in the bathroom. Fenced in the yard, planted gardens, etc. All on my dime. Geesh, I think most people who post here treat renters like the plague. There was just recently a thread started by a renter who had a lovely landlord who was letting her have input, design wise and color wise, for her small cottage, too. It was very nice. If I were still renting, I would love to be your tenant. E...See MoreBrass hinges turned...silver?
Comments (8)I could replace them with $2 hinges, actually, I'm just a) being cheap, b) trying to avoid waste, and c) hoping to avoid filling & redrilling, after already having to fill holes with a change in cabinet knobs. It would just involve one hole, which is better than it could be...until you multiply it by 2 hinges and 20 doors, and I haven't even started changing out knobs & pulls on the lower cabs yet. Plus, the cabinets are primed already. Hmm. I might try looking another place to see if I can find cheap hinges that wouldn't involve new holes, but otherwise, I think I can live with a short-term fix, either clear-coating them all with Rustoleum or putting them on as-is and seeing how they wear like fori suggested. Thanks for the input everyone! At least I have an idea of what they are now and know to keep expectations low. ;)...See MoreWWYD - galley kitchen partial remodel help
Comments (5)I have a similar kitchen... builder grade cabinets, the awful soffits (yes, I hate mine too), etc.... I painted my cabinets a little over 5 years ago, new counter, backsplash, and appliances, and new flooring - I love the updates but the soffits still haunt me. I hate them. No matter what, I hate them. My next plan is to remove them, buy new uppers, and get new doors for the bottoms. I wish I would have just saved up money and got all new cabinets 5 years ago but I was eager to paint mine after seeing everyone on Pinterest paint theirs. I think you have a great space to work with, but I feel your pain on the soffits. I do like your idea of open shelving in some areas. I've seen people remove their soffits, build boxes, and then get new door fronts - it looks nice, but I think I'd rather just get new cabinets after all that work....See Morekitchen counter, hardware,valance
