Does your kitchen cabinet bland? Do you think it’s time to have them replaced but you don’t feel you’re up to spending that much for a new set? Why not try your artistic sense by jazzing it up.

If you are the person who loves challenges, you would surely like the idea of working on your old cabinet to turn it into something “new”. Basically, what you will need are water, paintbrushes, glaze, clean rag, primer sealer, sandpaper, paint, clear polyurethane, TSP or trisodium phosphate, glue or wood filler, detergent, or design blocks or stamps if you want.

First off, you need to remove the doors and the drawers and whatnot. In short, you have to disassemble your kitchen cabinet. Be careful doing this as you do not want to destroy anything. Then, clean the door/s with TSP or sandpaper if needed. If the doors are stained, you can use the detergent.

Once you have the doors and drawers cleaned, it is time to make repairs in any is needed with the assembly of the cabinet. Like if there are holes that needs plugging or the hinges needing replacement. With that out of the way, you can now start painting the doors and drawers. You don’t need to be good at drawing things as you can design your cabinet with abstract doodles if you want to.

Once the paint is dry and it has been coated with a protective coating, you are now ready to put it all back together. And there you are, a very easy way to turn old furniture into “new”.
