When my husband and I were newlyweds and living in cheapity cheap student housing, our cabinets looked exactly like this. Had I known how chic they could have looked with a simple, streamlined paint job, I would have painted them on the spot, landlords be darned!
Of course, a new backsplash, countertops, faucet and hardwood floor would have helped too. Brooke from Hire to Inspire made over this rental property of her parents, and I bet they had no problem finding tenants! Thanks Brooke!
