We are buying a house that has an old, dated kitchen:
I need some ideas for ways to make it look better, but don't have a lot of money to spend. We definitely need to make the existing cabinets work for a year or two. I've thought about painting them, or possibly staining them, but I'm not sure how it will come out. I believe the cabinets are pine with a heavy coat of varnish on them. Also, the doors and drawers are not flat; the left and right sides of each panel is routed quarter-round. All of the pictures I have seen of people painting their cabinets have "flat" doors, and I just can't picture how this would look.
Does anyone have any ideas they could share? Pictures would be extremely helpful. Thanks in advance.
