cabinets - I understand that there is not a glaze on your cabinets. Did you put a final top coat after spraying with paint? My cabinet maker has given me the option and I'm trying to decide. »
· Comment · 4 months ago
Christopher Jenkins Hello Cesker. We use a catalyzed paint which hardens quicker and forms a solid shell after application. We primer the cabinetry then paint with two coats of color with the catalyzed paint. Whatever type of paint you end up using I would make sure it has some sort of protective top coat if it doesn't already have a chemical compound incorporated in the paint for protection and hardening purposes. Hopefully your cabinetry supplier can advise you best on exactly what type of paint they are using and what they recommend for your needs/wants. Best of luck with your project.

Can you tell me what color you used to pain the cabinets? As well as the color and brand for the backsplash? »
· Comment · 5 months ago
Christopher Jenkins Hi Megan. The paint is a color we call Linen White. It is a conversion varnish with a dull/hand rub treatment. I did not design or select the materials for the backsplash so I'm sorry I can't answer that for you.

Do you think that a dark floor color would go good with the color scheme here? - I really love the colors of the cabinets and hardware, but I have chosen a darker wood floor for the home and would like to know if it would go with the off white cabinets. Thanks for your help! »

jaysawhney What type of cabinets are these! I love the color and the style.

Christopher Jenkins Hi Jaysawhney. I designed these cabinets and they were manufactured by Brakur Custom Cabinetry, Inc. in Shorewood, IL. The paint color is Linen White. Brakur produces a high quality custom cabinet. If you are in the Chicagoland area and are interested in custom cabinetry then drop me a line. Thank you for the inquiry.

Christopher Jenkins My pleasure and thank you Laurie. I appreciate your compliment. I love the work I do and I am always fulfilled when I hear others enjoy what they see as well. If you ever know anyone looking for cabinetry or countertops in the Chicagoland area please give me a holler. Take care Laurie and thank you once again.

what color are the cabinets? are they also glazed? What is the tile in the backsplash? Thanks »
· Comment · 15 months ago
Christopher Jenkins Hello Jilmann. The cabinetry is an off white paint color that my shop labels as "Linen white". No glaze. There is a low % sheen on this cabinetry that we refer to as "dull rub" or "hand rub" as well. I did not install the tile backsplash or help with selecting the tile so I'm sorry I don't have the information on that to pass on. Thank you for your inquiry. I'd be happy to help you with any other questions you may have.
