Previously, I posted about a DIY tree mural I painted in my bathroom, and I was on such a creative high that I decided to paint my ugly cabinets soon after. To follow along with the nature theme and fresh, fun redesign of my bathroom, I looked next to what I could do with the cabinets that were marring the look of the redesigned room.
I had considered staining them, but I knew there was more work involved in doing that than just painting not to mention more supplies. I’ve seen a few ideas of painted cabinets, but I didn’t know what I wanted until I started painting. Again, the project was super fun and incredibly cheap to do. It only took a few supplies and a few hours to do – below are some before/after pictures!
Time to Complete Project:
2-3 hours
Supplies:
- Behr Ultra Paint (Again, I bought a 7.25 oz sample in Espresso from The Home Depot)
- Valspar/Behr Ultra Paint in a cream or soft white
- Stencil Brush (A craft brush set with brushes in various sizes will work great too!)
- Paper towels/few rags
Cost:
$10-15
