Details:
  • Cabinetry: Showplace cabinets in cherry. The perimeter cabs are ‘truffle’ stained with a ‘walnut’ glaze. The island is ‘coffee’ stained.
  • Counter: New Ornamentale granite. I love the lighter granite – always looks clean!
  • Cabinet glass (in uppers on either side of the sink): Rain
  • Backsplash: Tumbled botticino marble with 2x2 bronze renaissance inserts. Rope is Westminster 1x6 bronze.
  • Sink: Ticor. I love the large basin and grates – makes washing dishes almost enjoyable!!
  • Faucet: Price Pfister Picardy in venetian bronze
  • Hardware: ORB from YourHomeSupply.com
    The pull is the 5 3/4" at $2.19 (there also is a 3 1/2" version that I used on built-in cabs in the adjoining family room): http://www.yourhomesupply.com/p-331-oil-rubbed-bronze-country-cabinet-hardware-pull-cp6718r-ob.aspx
    The knob is $1.69: http://www.yourhomesupply.com/p-348-oil-rubbed-bronze-3-ring-cabinet-hardware-knob-cp6971-ob.aspx
  • Paint: Devine oak
  • Floor: BR-111 Amendoim in ¾" solid. It also runs down the hall and into our foyer. It has transformed our main level and we get tons of compliments on it.
  • Pendants: Progress Lighting, Renovations series
  • table and chairs: my fun estate sale find (painted after the fact) - I fell in love with the scrollwork/detail on the chairbacks!
More info:
Our lay-out has stayed pretty much the same as before with a few enhancements. Our ceilings are 9 feet and some of the cabinets now extend to the ceiling. The island is slightly larger to accommodate seating for 2. The desk has been replaced with a coffee/breakfast/snack area that has eliminated a lot of traffic in the ‘work zone’ by my kids. Great side benefit to the additional storage on that wall! Also, we added banks of drawers where there were base cabinet shelves for easier access to things. Oh, and I really like the garbage disposal airswitch.
The island cabinets are 18" deep. I didn't use a leg, as I thought it would get in the way. My kitchen is small and the entrance to the room is right there. The final counter is 28"-32" (curved side) x 60". The overhang is 12" deep in the center. The end cabinet on the island (you can see it in the last picture) is 24" deep for the pull-out trash cabinet (I was insistent on getting double bin recycling).

DIY Original Stained Oak Creatively Retrofitted into Distressed Off-White Kitchen




Posted by gam51 on Sat, Jan 10, 09

Link to gam51's kitchen photos

Details:
  • Cabinets:
    Perimeter - original stained oak cabinets, creatively reused, painted off-white, distressed and glazed (see below for paint, glaze and finish),
    Island - Bertch Legacy in Cherry
  • Countertops:
    Perimeter - Green Mountain PA Soapstone,
    Island - Crema Bordeaux granite
  • Backsplash: Limestone subway tiles and a couple of 12x12s that DH cut into the size of squares we needed to make the design fit. The black squares are leftover soapstone that he cut.
  • Hardware:
    Perimeter - iron finish knobs/pulls from Target
    Island - Montana Aged Iron Appliance Pulls from Bellacor http://www.bellacor.com/productdetail/97432.htm
  • Range: KitchenAid
  • Refrigerator: KA counterdepth
  • Faucet: Grohe K-4
  • Sink: Blanco Silgranit
  • Coffeemaker: DeLonghi
  • Windows: Pella
  • Flooring: Oak
  • Spice Bottles: Specialty Bottle Company http://www.specialtybottle.com/
We took the kitchen from an oak that was turning an orange we weren’t crazy about to a painted, distressed and glazed off white. Some of the pics look more yellow (darn lighting). The off-white color shows the more accurate color of cabinets and walls. The upper cabinets were all 30" cabinets that we added crown molding and an undercabinet trim to so they would look taller. We added some wood to the one over the microwave to break up the heights. We added beadboard to the backs of the glass cabinets and on the ends.

We took down a wall and incorporated the hall into the kitchen gaining us about 44 inches of space. All perimeter cabinets were ones we re-used (green not cheap!). All but two were changed in some fashion by my DH.

DIY: We did all the work except for the soapstone/granite install. The total cost was less than $12,000 but we decided to add new Pella windows (installed by DH) since the walls were down so that added $2000.

Cherry Island. This is the one set of cabinets we ordered. It consisted of a bank of drawers, an upper wall cabinet on the end that was turned into a trash pullout, and some panels. DH built a base and made it all fit together. The granite is Crema Bordeaux. DH ran 2 pieces of flat ½ X 4 inch plate steel across the top of the cabinets and extended out to support the granite overhang where the 2 stools are.

Cabinet transformation:
  • Cabinet paint is antique white milk paint by American Finishes with a watered-down solution of their VanDykeBrown glaze effects. We then put a spray finish of Minwax waterbased polycrylic clear satin finish over it.
  • Cabinets to the right of the microwave: We took a couple of cabinets, cut them shorter, added the plate shelf, and converted the doors to glass.
  • Countertop cabinet to the right of the sink: This was constructed from a cabinet that we changed to glass; the upper part of our old oven cabinet turned into a "garage"; and one he just made because I wanted a pullout to put soaps etc in.
  • Sink base: We bumped out the sink base, first because we were forced to so the sink/faucet would fit; and second because we liked the look. He built the legs from a pic I found. We painted the base behind black so the legs stood out more. Added pullouts for recycling.
  • Peninsula: On the peninsula, we actually have two cabinets we didn’t mess with and then we took some fronts of pasta bins that we had on an old end cabinet and made 2 deep drawers. We had a narrow door that we turned at an angle and made a cabinet for cookie sheets, etc.
  • Cabinet to the left of the oven: We made this into a pullout that DH custom made to fit the lids; and the pots do all manage to fit in even tho the cabinet is only 15".
  • Cabinet to the left of the refrigerator: The cabinet to the left of the frig is a combination of 2 base cabinets (one with 3 drawers and one with 1 drawer and 1 door—turned upside down to make the opening with the 2 vertical doors (which were actually previous drawer fronts). Then we left a cabinet open that we cut apart and put shelves in to make the cookbook shelves. DH built the shelf above the frig to tie the cabinets on either side together. We turned the opening of the cabinet into a "poor man’s coffee bar". Works great to keep it off the countertop but easily accessible. The coffee pot is actually filled by pulling out the handle (not from the top) so that makes life easier.
  • Display cabinet: We had this display cabinet with the glass doors before so we retro fitted it into this angled wall and added the beadboard inside to match the other cabinets.

    9" spice pullouts flanking stove

    table-height soapstone bar
    cookbook bookcase
    niche
    counter grommets for cords
Approximate cost: $35-40,000.00 I say "approximate" because the labor portion was part of a whole-house remodel in which we knocked down three walls, built a new dining room and a master suite (adding a bathroom)...so it's hard to splice out the labor costs exactly.
Places I saved: Appliances! Bought the fratelli and futuro futuro online at ajmadison--free shipping and no tax. Samsung fridge-highly rated, very reasonably priced, Dishwasher-closeout from adu.com at $400.00! All I had to do was drive 30 minutes to pick it up. Microwave/Convection--from adu.com closeouts as well. Cabinet Hardware: I went cheap...and don't regret it at all...I like them! Ebay: sink and faucet at well below retail. Recessed lighting from Ikea--it's fabulous and the electrician said no different and in fact better than some "higher end" versions. Saved my original schoolhouse fixture and reused.
Places I splurged: Soapstone! Flooring-high-end Mannington product but I really loved it, and had the red oak toothed in to existing original read oak flooring at a premium..but love the results!
Cabinets were a save and a splurge at the same time. I wanted cherry and was used to Omega and Dynasty products which are very nice...but couldn't afford to outfit my new larger kitchen in that line. Brighton was very similar in quality--almost undetectable differences--and just cheaper enough to sway me. My cabinets were $13,000.00 Full Blumotion soft close, all the bells and whistles I would have gotten in Dynasty.
Construction Timeline: Again, this was a whole-house renovation where we remodeled every room on the main level except for one bathroom. We reconfigured one bedroom, added a closet, converted one bedroom plus the garage into a master bedroom, bathroom and walk-in closet, converted an existing aluminum sunroom into a new dining room. Installed an additional back door and landing, four new windows, moved and restored two existing built-in china cabinets, re-wired much of the house including moving the electrical panel and installing recessed lighting throughout. And of course, gutting and replacing the kitchen--we also knocked down three walls to create a more open kitchen/breakfast/dining plan and a wider entry to the living room. The first hammer fell in demo on June 23. Today we passed our final inspection. An amazing amount of work in such a short time. We lived here and homeschooled our kids here through the whole thing.
Budget: Our total costs for all labor, services and materials from soup to nuts (and we kept meticulous track of every purchase and cost) was $200,000.00 (not including original architect
Overall Timeline: Made my first calls to architects and design/build firms right after the new year. Had contracted with an architect/build firm by the end of January. Design began in earnest right away with the finished design ready at the beginning of May. Spent another 20 days shopping the plan around and we decided to go with a contractor rather than the architect's firm. Permitting was a real PITA and took longer than expected--if you're in Montgomery County, MD --build in extra time for this--it took us two weeks and four trips back to the permitting department just to get the plans pushed through and we weren't even changing our existing footprint or building new structure!
Although the kitchen was the last part constructed, it's the first we've moved back into. As we move back into the rest of the new spaces and unpack our pod I'll be posting pictures of the whole project for those interested.
Service Providers to recommend:
Well, my contractor was FABULOUS for this whole house remodel. We finished on time and on budget. They were clean, courteous, communicative and creative. If you live in the greater Washington DC area feel free to contact me and I can recommend. Similar raves about the electrician--and this was a BIG electrical job (we pretty much rewired the whole house.) Very competetive pricing from both of these guys too...
Stitches Etc. in Timonium MD: Can't say enough about these folks. I didn't end up buying from them because I chose different brands, but they specialize in Bertazzoni, Aga, Ventahood, Bosch, Miele and a few others. Incredible customer service--nice family-run business. http://www.stitchesetc.biz/index.html John was very knowledgable and patient with me on venting and hoods, and his wife was most helpful with the ranges...they are true enthusiasts.
Cabinet Discounters in Columbia, MD: I ended up with these guys after going all over town with one plan, being unhappy, and then starting from scratch. Matt Simms was my sales rep and was a perfect match for me because I knew what I wanted and he helped me realize it--he wasn't trying to make his own artistic statement on MY kitchen! Great communication, follow-up and customer service--including terrific suggestions along the way.
Bode Floors in Columbia MD: Again, customer service can't be beat. I kissed a lot of flooring frogs before I found this prince(ss). Linda Lawrence was my saleswoman. Installation was just typical--nothing special, nothing agregiously wrong.
Old Mill Soapstone near Charlottesville, VA: Sally O'Brien proprietor. Again, just one of the nicest people. She also quoted me the best price but for logistical reasons I went local instead with...
Carapace Stone in Savage MD: contracted through Cabinet Discounters with Creativeincounters as the fabricator. I got to pick my slabs and was present at templating. Happy with the results and price was competetive enough.
Appliance Distributors Unlimited (adu.com)--several locations in the MD/DC area: Check out their website closeouts. I was always treated like a first-class customer by their web sales rep and at their warehouse even though I was picking up heavily discounted appliances from their website. They treated me like a queen anyway.
Great on-line vendors with superior customer service:

DIY Painted Bittersweet Chocolate Kitchen

Link to girlwithaspirin's kitchen photos: http://girlwithaspirin.com/4538/kitchen.html (no longer available)

Link to girlwithaspirin's Before&After Photo  

Details:

  • Cabinets: original oak cabinets, painted in BM Bittersweet Chocolate
    (see below for instructions)
  • Countertop: Silestone Capri Limestone counters
  • Sink: D-bowl stainless sink from eBay
  • Faucet: Price Pfister Parisa pullout
  • Wall paint: Benjamin Moore Iced Marble, a really soft (but not sweet) blue-gray not unlike Silver Sage.
Painting Supplies:

  • Benjamin Moore Satin Impervo Alkyd (oil-based) in Bittersweet Chocolate
  • Purdy angled brushes
  • Thick plastic dropcloths
  • Sandpaper
  • Mineral spirits and rags for clean-up as you go
Painting Instructions:

  • Remove doors.
  • Clean with soap and water.
  • Lightly sand, only where needed.
  • Remove dust with a tack cloth.
  • Rest each door on its bottom edge. Do not paint that edge -- you'll do it once the doors are re-hung.
  • Paint the backs first with a thin coat of Satin Impervo. Thin coats give more of a handrubbed look and also avoid drips. If you do see some drips, try to catch them early -- once the paint starts to dry, you'll make a mess trying to smooth them out. Let dry at least overnight, preferably a few nights to avoid smudges when you flip the doors around.
  • Paint the fronts in the same way.
  • Let cure for as long as you can stand it. A week would be ideal.
  • In the meantime, paint the cabinet boxes. I didn't paint the insides, and I've never regretted it.
  • After a weeks gone by, re-hang the doors. Paint the bottom edge of each. Do any touch-up.
  • Depending on your wood, the paint may keep absorbing in certain places. I kept the paint can in my kitchen for a month, doing quick touch-ups wherever necessary.
I didn't do two full coats of paint like many people suggested. For one, the Satin Impervo covers amazingly. The dark color helped -- I imagine a light color would require more coats. But also, the thinner the paint, the more it looks like stain. If you glop it on, which I accidentally did in some places, it doesn't look as much like a pro job.
If you have oak, keep in mind, you will see grain through the paint. If you'd rather not, you'll have to use some kind of putty to fill the grain, then prime, then paint. I just didn't have the energy for it, and it turns out, I love the look -- people mistake it for a handrubbed stain all the time.

You can see faint brushstrokes, which I love. The Benjamin Moore Satin Alkyd is incredibly forgiving paint, and I believe it would've self-leveled more if I laid the doors flat while painting and drying. I didn't want to encourage that, so I left them standing up.

For "cutting in",
I never use tape. But I live and die by angled Purdy brushes and a steady hand. I press and ease the tips of the bristles up to the edge, then pull slowly. Another hint: Don't hold the brush way down on the end of the handle, where it looks like you're supposed to hold it. You'll have less control, and your wrist will fatigue much more quickly that way. Hold it up higher, closer to the bristles.
I'm so happy with how the cabinets have stood up over time. Not a single chip or scratch! To be honest, I cut so many corners in the prep (by choosing not to prime), I thought for sure I'd be dealing with the aftermath now. I credit the paint and patience for 100% of the success. Seriously, this paint is the real deal.
