Heart Of The Home - Faux Finishes For Kitchen Cabinetry (continued)
by Jay Dorman
Some of the faux effects that are popular in kitchens these days include one or a combination of the following:
Pricing for the finishes depends upon the level of complexity and the material used to get that “just right” look. If your kitchen cabinetry is freshly painted, then a simple dry-brushed finish may be all you need, and is usually inexpensive. However, the more steps that are involved in a process, the more the price goes up. A knowledgeable faux finisher can work within your budget while giving you the best possible look to complete your dreams.
I encourage you to contact an experienced professional faux finisher for a free consultation when you are ready to begin your kitchen project.
Discuss your ideas with a faux finish expert -- look at colors, styles, techniques and samples. Then develop the perfect combination for your dream kitchen.
Ask detailed questions, get references, ask to see photos, and if possible go to a kitchen the faux finisher has completed to check out his quality and level of competence.
Make your heart of the home as perfect as you deserve.
