Kitchen Cabinet (re)Paint
Comments (6)Even if you could figure out the technical finesse to touch up so the cabinets look good, the color might be a challenge. If it's been a few years, fresh-out-of-the-can touch ups are probably not going to blend nicely/match the white that's been in service for a few years -- same with the new cabinets - they probably won't match....See MoreNeed help with kitchen cabinet colors
Comments (13)Definitely remove the valance before deciding to do anything else. It's difficult to suggest color options without seeing adjoining spaces. I assume your kitchen opens to your family room. How is that space decorated? What colors do you love? I probably would not paint your perimeter cabinets. It's a huge expense and your cabinets appear to be in great shape. Have you priced a repaint from a professional?...See MoreHow often will I have to have kitchen cabinets re-painted?
Comments (8)Thank you to everyone who has replied so far (and I welcome more responses.) The information you've shared has been very helpful. JAN MOYER and tedbixby, I didn't realize there are differences in how professionals do the painting; that's very good to know. I have had two quotes so far for painting and I think they both intended to do the job completely on site. If we decide to go with paint, I will definitely look for someone who does what you described. armchair shopper, interesting about the brown part of the stain fading. Also, maple tends to yellow naturally, I believe, and combine that with the cherry stain . . . orange. tedbixby, whether or not I paint I'll be getting a new countertop and floor and maybe backsplash so yes, hopefully that would change the kitchen enough that I wouldn't be so distracted by the tone of the cabinets. Christina and Anglophilia, I'm glad your paint has been so durable, that is a check in the "pro paint" column! Thank you all again....See MoreNeed opinion on Color of Kitchen Cabinets
Comments (10)It’s a lot of cabinets. What I’d try to do is just break up the same ness that exists now. What I would also do is try NOT to undertake such a large paint project due to the age ( no drawers) and wanting to leave the counters and splash as you indicate. So what I would do is get some glass doors on chosen uppers.... .( standard honey or praline on maple and source the glass locally) And proceed w the deep paint color ( black or near black) on the small island . Change the hardware, and paint the walls and get a better lighting plan Especially....See MoreValentina N
