They look great in the kitchen and have held up like a professional built them.<br /><br />I am very impressed with your kitchen.

I have been trying to convince him that we can, but I don't think he is sold on the idea yet. Did you have oak fronts only, or were your cabinets oak all around? I'm just curious because ours are maple front, and like veneer on the box. My favorite is the feet you gave it to make it look free standing.

What type of paint did you use (i.e., oil, latex, flat, gloss and was it from Lowes?) Also, with the putty...did you just use a skim coat and then sand it down? Thanks for the info!!1Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04973693727088031075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458998306046337686.post-37851260808035166282009-06-02T09:12:47.409-05:002009-06-02T09:12:47.409-05:00We just recently painted our cabinets, too!

Too funny because I did exactly what you are doing last year to my kitchen. Except we had the cabinets done by a professional (but it probably would have turned out better had I done it myself), but looking at your pics is funny too because I have the same exact fridge, and my faucet is almost exactly the same as the pic you posted. We had solid slab granite installed with a travertine marble backsplash on the diagonal. After I get through my sons graduation I'll have to post some pics on my blog. Hope is all turns out for you, the cabinets look great.My Creatively Vintage Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375866680288397004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458998306046337686.post-79353033160118189012009-05-14T20:33:00.000-05:002009-05-14T20:33:00.000-05:00Your kitchen redo is absolutely amazing!!! thank y...Your kitchen redo is absolutely amazing!!! thank your for the tutorial! so helpful.<br />LuLuLuLuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649086729644979781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458998306046337686.post-73164688401068491612009-05-14T14:48:00.000-05:002009-05-14T14:48:00.000-05:00I wasn't one that asked about painting cabinets, b...I wasn't one that asked about painting cabinets, but I meant to and I'm so glad you made this post!!! <br />We have honey oak cabinets and I want to paint them white so bad!!! My husband is hesitant and get this - he's a painter! =O Well, part-time, but he knows what he's doing and he's gotta know how much better they'd look! =)<br />I LOVE the idea of the black toe kicks and legs!! I also love the idea of the baskets and I think I'll try it. I'm really short and there are a few cabinets I never use because I can't reach anything in them. This is a big problem since we have very few cabinets to begin with.<br />Anyway, thanks so much for the nudge =) to paint mine and for the great tips!! I never would have thought of using the wood filler so I'm so glad you shared!! <br />Your kitchen is really coming along! I LOVE it!! =)Tote, Debby, Sammy and Caleb Jimenezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03659653814783825561noreply@blogger.com
