H&H’s style director Kimberley Brown takes you behind-the-scenes of her DIY kitchen transformation. She wanted to refresh her wood cabinets, so she recruited video producer and stylist Reiko Caron to help her paint them. See how a fresh coat of white paint brightens the upper cabinets, while seafoam green lowers add a subtle pop of color. Removing the doors on the cabinet above the sink gave the small space an airy feeling. Plus, discover the design duo’s top tips — and mistakes to avoid — when painting your cupboards (think: use primer first when you’re painting solid wood and make sure to label the door hinges).

Totally agree on the hinges part…I just painted my own cabinets and had issues figuring out the hinge part…Love the honest video…
HINT: Number your cabinet doors (L>R ard K) and write # in hinge hole w marker. Also remove hinges and place in cabinet shelves for correct hinge to door to cabinet.
NOTE: to differentiate top doors from bottom, write upper cabinet # in top hinge hole and bottom doors in bottom hinge hole. Hardware holes help you know difference.
Hi, what finish did you use on the kitchen cabinets? semi-gloss, high gloss, or satin? thanks!
What landlord allows this? bye bye security deposit
What do you think? Would the bread boxes, made with swiss stone pine, fit to your kitchen design.
The smell will do it, we can promise it 🙂 https://www.4betterdays.com/catalogsearch/result/?cat=&q=brotkasten

Thank you! I'm about to paint my kitchen and learned so much from this (I would never have thought to label the hardware) x
So helpful, worth watching. Thank you!
What is that color of green?
It turned out so awesome!!
Also, this might be the only H&H video I've watched that no one said "transformative" or "transform" or "transformation". Ok probably not, but there is a pattern… 😛
Great job, beautiful colors, beautiful smile Reiko you are the best
