🎄 Getting My Kitchen Holiday Ready by Thanksgiving! Painting + Open Shelf Styling 

Beautiful job Sherri. And very nice that you kept it real and showed the mess that occurs when you have to empty your cabinets to paint. I love moody art too, by the way.

We were selling our house and had a large kitchen in need of a redo. The original finish was 30 years old and way past due for a makeover. It had 42” tall uppers with 28 cabinets and drawers. I sanded and hand painted 2 coats on everything both sides of all doors and added poly. I used a Sherwin Williams alkyd which covered, went on and leveled like a dream. No brush strokes showed at all. No primer. I did this in early spring when it was still pretty cold. So I had alot of doors set up on sawhorses in the kitchen and dining room. It took me two entire weeks. Turned out so beautiful. We put in new counters and the kitchen turned out beautiful. Shortly after I had to turn around and do the same thing in a home we were renovating for our retirement. The kitchen is even larger. We paid $500 at Restore for these semi custom cabinets. We had so many we used some in my shop and my husbands. This time no uppers as I decided on a series of collected mismatched vintage open shelves painted in Sherwin Williams Biscuit white. Same process only these were a medium brown wood. Again no primer. The kitchen looks amazing. Painting is such an awesome way to elevate the look of a kitchen. I love the colors you went with.

I am overwhelmed on this one Sherri! I cleaned my whole guest bathroom yesterday. We are melting outside Washington, DC. I can't motivate myself to do what you just did in this video. I feel so inadequate! Love what you do. ♥️☘️

Hi, You’re doing a fantastic job. Adding some corbels/ brackets under the shelves will add a nice touch. The shelves look more cottage-like and less like cabinets that had doors removed.

I’m sorry the dumb waiter didn’t work out. What a cool vintage feature. Your cabinets looks great!

Beautiful Sherri - love the color. I agree with you that every room needs blue & white in it😊. I need to tell you, when you mentioned your in laws, it made me think that it speaks volumes of the person you are, you cared for your mom and your in laws live with you(?) what a blessing you are. I feel blessed also as my parents lived around the corner from me and I was there for them. Thanks for sharing 😊

Huge undertaking; went thru this process myself years ago! The spraying really gives an amazing finish!!!

I totally relate to projects taking months. I’m the master of starting and not finishing things. Everything looks fantastic! FYI…xo macenna was the first to hang the doors like that to paint. If you wanted to give credit.

Sherri! It looks so good! I love it all! 👍❤️😊

You knocked it out of the park once again, Sherri! What an undertaking to paint the cabinets but it was worth all the prep. You have such an eye for styling shelves, too! Signed, your bestie 💐

Beautiful transformation. You took your time and did it right and saved a bucket by doing so!

Love those little blue plates!

Sherri…I truly loved what you did in your kitchen…it’s very tranquil looking. I can’t wait to see it completed! 😊

Wow awesome job on this video the curated life! You look really beautiful in those overalls! 😊 awesome job on this video! ☺️ your an amazing painter in those overalls!

Sherri , great Job🎉👏🏼👏🏼

The cabinets look great. I am so excited to see your whole kitchen when you are all finished ❤❤❤

Sherri as always ..took my 100% attention..moody is beautiful…and can’t wait for your holidays videos this channel is my treat and my relaxation 🫶🏼

❤❤❤ every step leads you closer to the finished project. It looks great.

🏡 Sherri, have you considered painting your backsplash? Since you want to replace it down the road, you wouldn't be hurting anything. Even if you just lightened the brown border part, & left the beige as is, would look beautiful! Many examples on utube also😉 ~Just a thought. ~Also, looks like you have Parquet wood floors already... would look beautiful "painted" also😅

Sherri another great home improvement job by you. It looks great. 🌞👏🏼👏🏼

i absolutely love this❤ and guess what it’s unique to your style and not everyone else’s house.

I love your glasses!! And yes, thats a Drew trick!

Looks good Sherri!

MaCenna X0XO sprayed her cabinet doors too. Sherri I love the color you chose for them. I can't believe how much the paint changed the feel of your kitchen. Love the artwork and how you decorated your shelves . Just WOW what a difference. Absolutely gorgeous 🤗💓💕💞

Beautiful!!

❤

Sherri it’s just lovely ❤❤❤❤❤I love it the color with the blue and white plates and love the gold hardware with the color. What color is that

Hi and how are you? New here and just subscribed. I like doing decoration for Thanksgiving. Have you set your time frame to finish by Thanksgiving to decorate for the Thanksgiving holiday?

Could you paint the backslash? ❤

...so why do you have a Christmas Tree up/fireplace on? It is July! Lol! just curious!

Sherri, is it my iPad or your lighting? I have mine on the highest brightness I can. Is there anyway you may need to adjust your lights? Anyone in the comments know how I can fix my brightness?

Why didn’t you use it for a covered or something? It was already opened up. You could’ve put shelves in there. 🤷🏼‍♀️
