Michelle Mullins has
been hanging around this website for years and we've exchanged a number of
fun emails in that time. Deciding that her kitchen cabinets needed
a new look, Michelle decided to add our
Raised Plaster Bennington Frieze
Stencil to the center of each door and added molding to create further
architectural interest.
After a coat of paint and some antiquing, her cabinets now look like
something from an expensive designers show case!
See how she brought the color of the backsplash tile in to the
cabinets? This brought the whole room together just beautifully!
GREAT job Michelle!
Designers tip:
You can antique any painted surface by either using brown craft or wall
paint mixed with translucent glaze or rub the surface with wood stain. (I
LOVE the new gel wood stains! They are fabulous!).
Wipe the surface in one direction and then
immediately wipe off the excess with an old, try terry towel. Leaving it a
little darker in recesses of designs and at the edges of moldings creates
even more depth and interest. |
