Summarize the following:
Antiquing is a process by which you put a dark 'antique' stain over the top of cabinets that are painted or stained a few shades lighter. That means that the base color for the cabinets can be anything you like, be it painted white or stained oak. You can antique over your current cabinet color if you so desire, but many people like to go for a totally transformed cabinet look by adding a new base color as well. Examine your space and consider your overall decor to determine what the base color of your cabinets should be. Generally, it is best to stay away from very dark base colors, as the antiquing effect won't show up as well on them. Cabinets painted white or stained with a light, natural wood stain are very popular for their 'shabby chic' appearance when antiqued. The antique stain is the dark stain that will be painted over the top (and then wiped off of) the base color on the cabinets. While any matte stain will work, it is recommended that you select a stain advertised for its antiquing qualities. This is because antique stains are made to be the right opacity, luster, and color to convey an authentic antique appearance. For white and cream cabinets, choose a mid-tone antique stain. For honey/caramel tone cabinets, chose a medium to dark stain (depending on the desired contrast). For dark cabinets in a chocolate or coffee hue, you'll want to choose the darkest antique stain available. Antique stains cost about the same as regular wood stain, so you're not losing out financially by going with this option. The higher the contrast between the antique stain and the base color, the more worn and vintage the cabinets will appear when finished. There are pros and cons to both leaving your cabinets in place for painting, and to removing the doors and reinstalling them post-painting. If you choose to leave them in place, you save yourself a bit of prep work. However, you may end up spending more time taping off hinges and trim as well as painting. By removing the doors, you are granted full access to every aspect of the cabinet that needs painting. However, removing the doors and replacing them when you're finished antiquing takes a lot of time and effort. If you choose to remove your doors, label them on a piece of painters tape so that you know where they are supposed to go back in place. Know that you'll have to tape off the walls, floor and/or ceiling regardless of which option you choose. There aren't a ton of supplies necessary for antiquing cabinets, but you best make sure you have all of them at the ready before starting your project. You will need: Base color paint/stain (optional) Antiquing stain 1-2 Paintbrushes (size dependent on project - 3-inches wide is typically good) 100-grit sandpaper Sanding block or electric sander (optional) Painters tape Dry, clean cloth (choose a smooth fabric) Rubber gloves Finishing glaze/sealant (optional)

summary: Decide on a base color for your cabinets. Choose your antique stain. Decide if you will remove your cabinet doors or leave them in place for the painting process. Get all of your supplies ready.
