I decided this weekend that my cupboard handles needed sprucing up. Two years ago when we salvaged these cabinets, they were shiny brass and I painted them platinum. They've held up well, but were starting to show some wear. And I really wanted black now. So out came the screw gun and all 27 handles (2 screws each) came off and were lined up for painting.
Ready - set - paint!
A shiny coat of black spray paint - tops, then turn so one side gets it, then turn again for the other side.And then getting them all screwed back on!
Finished - for now. Still don't know what to
do with the floor - any ideas? I've thought about painting it - it's linoleum. That way I could "try out" some different looks before we spend the big bucks! I'm flipping between a slate look, wood floors, tile, etc.

WOW! That's a small thing, but what a big dramatic change. I really like the black!
