The builder grade oak cabinets are original to the home which was built in 2007. Solid cabinets so there’s no reason to rip them out when I knew I could transform them.
Prep is ESSENTIAL to ANY transformation! I removed all the doors, hardware and hinges. I normally use TSP but was out so I used my 2nd favorite cleaner, ‘Greased Lightning’. You name it, it gets it off! I scrubbed them and used a tooth brush in the corners where nearly a decade worth of gunk was in. I rinsed them...
Red Door Furniture Co. used GF Queenstown Gray Milk Paint to give this desk a fabulous sophisticated look!
Alicia of A Conversation Piece and her husband recently gave this headboard a facelift with the help of General Finishes Gray Gel Stain and High Performance Top Coat.
Alicia says, "We have been working hard on building a closet in my bedroom in order to give my son his own room! Thanks to my Dad and Husband for their hard work, and to General Finishes for the amazing products!"
This dresser went from drab to fab! This is a custom mixed color consisting of 60% GF Millstone Milk Paint, 20% Snow White and 20% Seagull Gray. Quite the transformation!
"I used General Finishes Milk Paint in Driftwood, and GF Glaze Effects in several different colors.. I love the way it turned out, and the products performed beautifully. It's over a year (maybe longer?) since I finished it, and even with regular use the piece is still perfect." - Heather Akers for Artis Hands Studio

Loving this stenciled dresser from Refresh Living!
"For this dresser, I used General Finishes Milk Paint in Driftwood Gray. It took two coats of paint. I also painted the inside of the drawer compartments. It’s pretty simple to paint the inside of shelves by brushing in the corners and edges, and then rolling the bases and sides. Now we have the perfect storage area for all of the beach stuff at our little lake house." (Which happens to be in GF's neck of the woods :) !)
Jenny of Rustic Roots made over this buffet with General Finishes Empire Gray Chalk Style Paint.

"Easy breezy and so so fresh! This piece was given a head to toe makeover. Top has been stripped and stained in a custom weathered oak blend which highlights the beautiful wood grain in shades of grey, whites and cream, glazed with General Finishes Winter White. Bottom painted in General Finishes Chapin Gray Chalk Style Paint which is similar to an off white with a pale grey undertone, just a touch of distressing for character and then sealed with General Finishes HPTC flat. New hardware...

Can't get enough of this transformation from Oliver and Rust! "I went with my favourite paint General Finishes in Queenstown Gray and the interior was done in Seagull Gray. It looks like a nice steel grey with a slight blue undertone with a pale grey inside. I changed the hardware out to branch slice style ivory knobs on the lowers and bone pulls on the doors to compliment."

Jenny of Evolution of Style says, "I have used General Finishes paints in the past, and I really love how easily they spray, and the final finish once dry. They have a great selection of colors too. Because we all want great colors, yes? I spotted Queenstown Gray with a stained wood top, on a side table in a local Woodcraft store that sells and refinish furniture, and fell in love with it. I knew it had to be mine, and would be a perfect color for this piece.
...I used the same toning...

"I just finished this buffet and used my all time favorite combo-50/50 mix of Persian Blue and Seagull Gray Milk Paints. LOVE this color!" - Kamie of The French Door
"For the body of this dresser, I painted it in Slate Gray Chalk Style Paint. I’ve used quite a few brands of “chalk paint” before, and I definitely liked the General Finishes version. It’s a little less thick than others, which I actually prefer, and it went on super smooth. The finish also seems stronger than other chalk paints, so I left it as-is for now. I may decide later to add some furniture wax or flat acrylic, but I’d like to see how it hold ups up without a finish. I think this is...

Super excited about that!"

Awesome chair transformation from Art is Beauty! "I started with this beat up yellow painted chair. It had seen better days. I grabbed some of my General Finishes Seagull Gray Milk Paint and gave it a couple coats. When it was dry I used some clear wax and some dark wax to finish off the piece and buffed it up. I recovered the seat and affixed it back to the chair and she was ready for her closeup!"

Donna Ginther transformed her golden oak cabinets by painting 3 coats of General Finishes Gray Gel Stain over her existing finish. What a gorgeous end result!
The color of GF's Gray Gel Stain is so light that it can only be successfully applied over raw wood with the wipe-away application method. If you prefer the painted look, we recommend using Milk Paint instead of Gel Stain. Still, Gel Stain is an excellent finish when painted on and we are thrilled to see the success of this project!

To add a little glamor to the drawers, I painted the sides with General Finishes Pearl Effects in Burnished. Because a little extra glitz never hurt...
