Hi all,
recently moved into our new (to us!) house and would really like to revamp the existing fireplace and the kitchen cabinet doors rather than replace them. (Did a search on these topics but couldn't find anything addressing my specific concerns.)
RE: Fireplace - I'm wondering if there is a particular (maybe heat-resistant..?) type of paint that should be used for the mantle? And would it be total madness to be contemplating painting the back panel & hearth with tile paint or something? (The firepace is like the one in [broken link removed] picture.)
RE: Kitchen - I'm worried that my cabinet doors will just look a mess if we try to paint them, as are the ones with a kind of recessed arch design (don't know what the 'technical' term is, but they look like [broken link removed]!) I know a few people on here have painted their kitchen doors with great success but I'm wondering if anyone has tackled these kind of fiddly ones.
Any thoughts welcomed and thanks in advance
