Black Painted Cabinets

If you are visiting from Kelly's Blog. Click here for the correct post! Sorry :) This post is the process of painting my laundry room cabinets black.

I finished painting my laundry room cabinets black! I really like it. I am looking forward to accessorizing it. Sarah at Thrifty Decor Chick inspired me. She has an amazing laundry room.

This is the current state of my laundry room. I am on the lookout for some great knobs. Let me share my journey... This is the before yesterday morning. I was so tired of the well.. all of it. Notice the far left cabinet is darker. I tried to rub stain on and it just looked dirty. So on a whim I decided to paint them black.

So I took the cabinet doors off. I am not the best organizer. One day I hope to tackle the inside.

I then primed with Kilz white primer I didn't have a brush on gray. Not a good idea. I then tried to paint on the black paint on top of the white primer. It was a streaky mess.

I was too cheap to go to the store to buy a grey primer so I had a brilliant idea to use the spray paint in this small room with no windows. Not such a smart idea the fumes were off the charts. However it did work. I then went over the primer with black paint. Notice my grocery bag's inside the cabinets.. I did this so I didn't have to remove all the junk. It worked!

To prevent the spray paint from going all over the place I used a manila folder to block the area I didn't want to paint.

I put the doors back on and viola they are black. I can't wait to accessorize next week!
