this is much better alternative than the fabric cover from few weeks ago.

tiles on the cabinet door?
who would thunk =]
I love it!...it's creative, funky and easy to keep clean...what more could you ask for.

Now that's hot -
Looks like they used painted quarter-round mouldings to trim out the edges too?

This is such a great idea! My cabinents in my apartment are seriously in need of an update--like some film is peeling off of them taking the "wood grain" with it? Weird. Anyway, for renters do you think you could attach the tiles to a thin piece of wood and then attach the wood to the cabinents using a removable adhesive?

I bet that there is a semi-permanent way to put those up on my rental cabinets.

Some pretty tiles and some new handles would make them REALLY nice.

RainyCityStyle: I was thinking of doing the same thing for my cabinets (which have the same horrifying peeling problem, yuck). However, I'm having some doubts. Tiles are pretty heavy. Add to that the weight of the mounted panel... I'm not sure that a temporary adhesive would hold them up. The weight might even take the already peeling veneer completely off.

Argh.

If anyone has a really practical solution, shout it out!

RainyCityStyle --

I'd just remove those doors altogether and put them in storage - anything you stick on them is going to make the laminate peel off even faster.

This may be like finding a needle in a haystack, but does anyone know the paint color and have a similar substitute?

Arrggh...by "and" I meant to type "or"...

Clever!

Of course you could Ashley. But wouldn't covering the panels with wallpaper be a lot cheaper, simper, and easier.

shockthebourgeois, 4x4 tiles aren't that heavy and they are applied to vertical surfaces all the time. When we tiled the shower ceiling, we used masking tape to hold them up until the mastic set. Worked very well. However, If your doors have peeling veneer, I wouldn't try it without removing the veneer. I'd offer the same wallpaper suggestion as above.

I once used double sided tape (the white strong kind) to attach those mini mirrors from Ikea to my cabinet doors. When it was time to take them down, I just poured some rubbing alcohol on the tape, and the mirrors came right off with no damage. Mind you, my cabinets were painted though.

Delightful.

Love this idea as well. Re: Quiltmaster's idea of using wallpaper: I was just thinking the same thing! Or even decoupaging pretty craft paper. But cabinets get tons of use; any ideas for helping it stand up to grease and be easily cleanable? Would the edges start to peel after time?

Thanks!

Miss*Lisa, you could print this out and as long as you like the color match between your printout and what's on-screen, take it to the paint counter and have them match it. OR go get a range of chips and bring them home to match to what you see on-screen.

The magazine lists the paint color as "Sturdy Brown -- Sherwin Williams"

I wonder if covering cabinet doors with oil cloth would be viable. I am a renter who hates my cabinets, but I don't want to risk damaging them. I need my security deposit back.
