For the cabinets did you just paint over the wood veneer? (Assuming that is what it is obviously). It looks like the same cabinets I have and I want to paint them but am unsure about where to start.

Oh man I just checked in at C&B and it doesn’t look like they’re online. Maybe try in stores? They have more sheen to them (like the lavender ones on the bottom). Or maybe try ebay? Hope it helps!

Please can you tell me the name of the Crate & Barrel curtains? I can only find “Wallace” ones on the website and they don’t look the same. Help – I MUST have them!!!

Sounds cute! White cabinets with soft green walls and accents in the same tone as the runner could be cool! Good luck!

LOVE those green drapes. Planning to paint my cupboards white this summer using your tutorial. I want to pull in mostly green along with the colors in this runner from Target: http://www.target.com/Home-Neutral-Exploded-Floral-Collection/dp/B0031P71L2/ref=sc_qi_collection_item

Any ideas?

I love love love your blog, you all inspire me to whip our house into shape. the hubby and I painted our kitchen today (mojito from behr) and just decided to take the plunge and paint our oak cabinets white (which gives me the wonderful excuse to paint all of our trim white as well!) Thanks for all the inspiration, I look forward to reading daily!!

We like Benjamin Moore’s Decorators White (which you can have color matched for free to Behr paint which is more affordable). Hope it helps!

I am planning on painting my oak cabinets white very soon and was wondering what shade of white you think would be best? I was thinking just using pure white (not having the paint tinted at all) but was wondering if this would be too stark? Is it better to go with some shade of off-white?
