Need advice for honey oak cabinets floors and trim.
Comments (6)I have oak cabinets and worked with them as they are - though I did refinish them but kept them close to the same color. Pictures are in my "my pics" idea book in case there is something you see that is helpful. I know it is difficult to find pictures with oak cabinets right now. My trim is white.

Comments (0)We are planning to paint honey oak trim, windows, doors, cabinets, and builtins white. Does anyone have any advice or experience on best way/materials to do this?

Any experience is highly welcomed!...See MorePainting honey oak trim
Comments (6)My main part of the project was removing the paneling. It dated the house and made the room darker and smaller feeling. The wood is in good shape, yes, but I think it’s the color that is also dating it. Thanks for your advice. Maybe I’ll start with cabinet and ledge, and then go from there on each remaining piece. I’m not good at deciding on things before they are done....See MoreElaine Ricci
