Revamping your kitchen starts with painting cabinets for a budget-friendly refresh.
Remove doors and hardware, then clean surfaces with a degreaser. Lightly sand to ensure paint sticks, and apply a stain-blocking primer. Opt for semi gloss paint for durability and a sleek finish. Use a foam roller for smooth coverage and a brush for tight corners. Apply two coats, sanding lightly between for a flawless result. Reattach hardware after drying, typically 24 hours.
This project takes a weekend and costs $50-$100, depending on paint quality. Choose bold hues like charcoal or soft whites for timeless appeal. The transformation feels like a new kitchen without the hefty price tag of replacements, making it worth the work. With careful prep, your cabinets will look professional and withstand daily use, elevating your kitchen’s aesthetics, style and vibe.
