Break out the :drink: people, we are DONE! Since I'm ProBoards challenged, I don't know how to do multiple pictures on one post so I'll give you the best before & after side by side and you can see more pics on my blog.

We are beyond exhausted. We love how it turned out but boy was it a lot of work. Needless to say, that'll be our last big project for the summer.

If you're thinking about painting your cabinets, feel free to ask me any questions!

Lovely! Congrats! I remember when we finished mine - absolutely exhausting.

JMO, and you didn't ask for it, but I think the window doors on the top cupboards would be cute up there instead of leaving them off.

I have been following your progress and I am impressed. What kind of paint and the color did you end up using? Did you have to put some sort of top coat on to protect it?

Hi, we used Valspar's Swiss Coffee paint with primer. We did also add a water based semi-gloss to make it easy to clean in the future. It's water based thus prevents it from yellowing over time. HTH!
