Open Shelving Progress–Still Not A Reveal

Painting cabinets is a royal pain in the butt. Seriously. Especially when they’re dark brown and you want them to be white. I’ve lost track of how many coats of paint I’ve done at this point and my hand is officially a claw. But it’s finally starting to look the way I want it to. Slapping a coat on the dividing pieces has really transformed them. The last time I shared they looked like this….
And today they look like this…![]()

Better right? Not quite done though. They need at least one more coat of paint on the dividing pieces, touch ups here and there and I need to caulk that awful gap between the far right cabinet and the wall. Why does everything take so much longer than I think it will?![]()













Wow it looks awesome!! I’m the same way…thinking I can get something knocked out in a day or two haha!
Lookin’ good! Almost there! I always think that projects will take an hour or so, and I am there the whole day…. and patience is not my thing! Can’t wait to see it all done! btw… what color are you walls??
From now on if I think I’m going to add a week to every day I think a project will take me. haha.

Hey Christine. Our walls are Utterly Beige by Sherwin Williams. You can read more about them here – http://boyplusgirldesign.com/?p=1229 We also painted our mudroom this colour. And our entire townhouse was painted Utterly Beige. Hope that helps!

It looks great!!! Almostttt there!
They look so bright and white and pretty! So, you plan on keeping them open? What are you going to fill them up with?
Looking good! Looking forward to seeing them all done (bet you are too).
Looking good! Can’t wait to see it done! And I HATE how long projects take sometimes! You always expect it to go way faster.
