If you’re painting your kitchen cabinets to fit your farmhouse vision, consider light, muted colors that create a fresh and airy atmosphere. Soft whites are timeless options that give off a clean look in a farmhouse kitchen. Warm grays can add depth and sophistication to farmhouse cabinets while still maintaining a neutral tone. Subtle greens can evoke a sense of nature in the space, pairing well with dark woods and fresh-cut flowers.

Small to medium-sized cabinetry typically takes three to five days, whereas large cabinetry takes around seven days. The complete process includes:

• Removing cabinet doors, drawers, and hardware.

• Removing the existing stain or paint.

• Sanding cabinet frames, doors, and drawers.

• Staining each side of the cabinetry one at a time. You’ll have to wait for the first side to dry before staining the other side.

• Waiting for the doors, drawers, and frames to dry fully.

• Reattaching hardware and hinges.

• Putting the doors and drawers back on the cabinet boxes.

Yes, you can refinish cabinets without wax or orange oil. The refinishing product will work regardless of wax and oil coats, but it might not shine as much. Adding a coat of penetrating oil will bring out the grain in the wood, and the wax will help prevent wear. Also, the protective qualities of wax and oil for hardwood make it a good idea to incorporate into the restoration process.
