kitchen cupboard paint

2 years ago

I am having a hand made kitchen put into my new extension, and assumed it would be hand painted. Chatting about colours the kitchen maker said that he spray paints with a polyurethane paint. I asked for farrow and ball and was told it would not work well with spray painting as too much paint wastage. I am worried that the finish might look plasticky, has anyone any advice. I am way overspending on this, but want it to look good

Our asymmetrical laundry chute cupboard

i agree! yes those are doors to hotpress on the left so there will be dead space. Will attach those floor plans now shortly. Its definitely odd and its not sitting right with me. We are confined to a tiny space for laundry and that laundry chute on the right top corner (not pictured) is not movable to any other point. Its also supposed to be pictured as being atttatched to the ceiling above so the clothes are concealed. Its an old protected house so the window had to stay making it look very asymmetrical. Thanks for any further input! The problem is that we've already ordered the doors etc so theres no going back. Any ideas on what someone would have done had they the opportunity from scratch would be also well received! (we have loads of storage in a separate utility so this laundry is purely for clothes) Thanks in advance folks!

laundry cupboard in apartment

We're renting a two bed apt and can do a few smaller things in it, nothing too major... I want to get a dishwasher but the most appropriate space for it, under the drainer, is where the washing machine is. We have a condenser dryer that is out in the 'dining area' and on a wooden floor, whereas the kitchen is tiled. I think the easiest solution for us would be to make a laundry cupboard of sorts in that corner of the dining area, and stack the washing machine and dryer there, making space in the kitchen for the dishwasher. So, my questions are these... is this a good idea at all? Should we put some waterproof tray type base to protect the floor? Is it advisable to sound proof the cupboard somehow? Thanks

kitchen refresh needed- new wall and cabinet paint

I painted my kitchen three years ago, and I love it. It's hard work and can take some weeks to do. You need to take doors off, remove the hinges and handles. Remember you need to prime and paint two coats on each side, so for a door that equates to six coats of paint and letting each coat dry. I used Mylands of London paint, I'm just hooked on this paint as the eggshell is dead flat with only 8 percent sheen, you wont get another paint any flatter. And if the paints good enough for Downtown Abbey, then it's good enough for us. I would hold back on painting wall tiles, as they are white and look fine , paint the cupboards first and see what it looks like. I choose Myalnds paint and had the colour mixed in a farrow and ball blue green. See photos. Good luck Yvonne

Paint colour for kitchen/dining room?
Q

Any suggestions for a paint colour for a mussel kitchen? I am changing the blinds to white and getting a white oak table with beige leather look chairs. Would a soft white/off white look dirty against white gloss doors (we have five of those doors in the room)? We don't like grey walls but maybe a beige/taupe?
