A Cinderella cupboard door story |
|||||
|
|
We've all had them at some point in our lives; the dreaded "UGLY KITCHEN CUPBOARDS!!!" (Every woman's worst nightmare!). But you don't have to live with them anymore! This is a cupboard door from a salvage yard that I decided to rescue. A good washing with white vinegar to remove any oils and grease, two coats of pale taupe semi-gloss paint and our Raised Plaster Belinda Panel stencil was all it needed to become a beauty waiting to grace those cabinets! And it was such a cinch! Since the inset was longer than the stencil, what I did was to begin in the center and plaster the first repeat. When that was dry, I then slid the stencil up to the top edge and plastered just a portion of the design. I did the same at the bottom end. Due to the intricacy of the design, it's difficult to tell where the design starts and stops. For total kitchen durability, once the plaster was dry, I painted over it with the door color then simply laid the stencil back over the raised design and painted it white. A new gold knob finished the project and I am now wishing I had these in my own kitchen! (But there are still 17 cabinet doors in our home in Idaho I must do something with... maybe this is it!!!). Now, take that stencil and apply it to the wall only up to chair rail level then add a railing made of cast plaster from one of our beautiful molds. You will have a kitchen that you will want to show off with a bit of entertaining.
