Dude said his wife wanted painted cupboards. M'kay? And you give him advice on absolutely everything else short of carburetor repair.

René's advice was great. Other than that, the OP needs a PAINTER and not useless advice.

Sorry. Been married too long. I know how this system works.


And your contribution to the thread was...?

I've met both DGM33's wife and Ops.

I can confidently say that DGM33 should stay with his current choice. :thumbsup2:

I'd at least get you discounts on firearms.

And I thought it was love the first time you held my hand while I was laying down.

DGM-

While I agree it might be rough in theory to paint those, I can kind of see your wife's point in that everything is kind of dark and intense, in a way.

They make a removable wallpaper, and one idea would be to try some of that in the backsplash areas under the cabinets, to get an idea of what new backsplash you might want.

You could also add under cabinet lighting to brighten things up, and even under the floor cabinets, as well.

(Just google under cabinet lighting)

Even new countertops of a color more her liking.

Thus instead of the cabinets being the lightest of a dark area, they become the darkest of a light area.

My wife likes to watch the home improvement shows, flippers, etc., and gets wild ideas. She paints the living room and dining room about every year and a half. We have paint samples on the dining room table right now :bigsmile: .

Good luck with your choices...we all have hobbies, what the hell, right? :cheers2:

My original thought was even the removable on the cabinets, but thought that might look cheesy. But I bet someone, somewhere, makes something, if the price is right?

I have a buddy who has under cabinet lighting similar to the bead lights for gun safes, all under cabinets in the kitchen, including the floorboards.

He has people over and those are the only lights he turns on. Great for atmosphere, and a nice even light. Overhead cans only come on when cooking anymore.
