Thanks for all your comments :) I am not really worried about the actual painting. I have done it before. I actually don't think there isn't anything I HAVEN'T painted. I was worried about if it was going to hold up well long term. I have more painting clothes than regular clothes! Really. I answered the door the other day in painting clothes and a paint brush in hand. My cute neighbor was bringing me a Christmas treat. She said in all seriousness that she didn't think she had ever seen me in "real" clothes. Sad! Or funny. Or pathetic. I am always knee deep in a project for someone! Soooooooo. I AM GOING TO GO FOR IT!!!!! I just decided.
I have considered the whole glazing thing in the past. I have done that too LOTS of times. My only thing is resale. If we ever sell, some people don't like it. Plus, I am a tiny bit obsessed with antiquing everything so all my furniture is pretty much that way. Would I want my cabinets that way too??? On the fence I guess. I think I will paint them, see how the whole "clean" thing goes and if they are a pain to keep clean, I can glaze them then. DONE. Mind made up :) Now I just have to do it!!! Thanks again for all the input. I have checked out all the posts and got some good tips to try. You guys rock!!! It probably won't happen for a while since I have some projects I am doing for other people. Plus I should wait until we can do the floors (tax return) and do it all together. Yeah! I am excited

If you click on it, it will take you to the site. I don't remember the name. I just picked one I liked. They don't have a ton of choices so maybe you could find it :)
ReplyDeleteStacy funny that you want to paint your cabinets. I have been weighing the same decision. But I am thinking of going crazy and painting mine green!!!
