Well it was a rainy and cold day here today, so what better time to do a little paint project!! This is the wall cabinet I have hanging in my living room. It went from a dark mahogany to oh so pretty Country French!
BEFORE
First I painted the whole thing in "prairie dust" Pittsburgh Paint from our local True Value. After that dried I the added "dill" also Pittsburgh Paint. As you can see I just brushed a little on all over.
After the paint dried I lightly sanded the whole thing. Then I brushed on Valspars mocha glaze. I usually wipe some of the glaze off with a damp rag but this time I didn't.
So much better, I LOVE it!

Hi Martina,
Great job! I'm jealous my kitchen doesn't look
like yours however, I'm pretty sure I have the same white cabinets as you do. I would love to paint them black also, can you tell me what you did to prep the cabinet doors prior to painting them black... thanks so much! Hillarylejardin@yahoo.com
