A few hints from someone who's also done this: Using masking tape and a Sharpie number the doors and the corresponding hinges so they go back to their original place. Several ways to keep the hardware with its respective door: zip look baggies or some Dixie cups etc are good for this. Doors can look very similar. Also, remove the door pulls after you've removed the doors completely. One hinge holding the weight of the door can bend or tear out of the wood completely. If you're considering new hardware (door pulls or hinges) buy them and install them first. They may take some trial and error , especially the hinges, and could result in holes or tears in the new wrap. The hardware in some bathrooms will have rust or may be pitted so this is the time to address such things. I changed our bathroom hinges to soft close. If your cabinets don't have pulls, be aware that printed removable wallpapers will lose their design with repeated contact with hands and fingers. I had to replace the paper on my doors and install door pulls that attached to the bottom of the doors and would stop them from being touched morning, noon and night with wet hands or food-covered hands. Some cleaning products are going to cause the design to fade or completely removed resulting in just the shiny vinyl base product. Cleaning the portion of the cabinets on the wall is very important as grease or food particles or even dishsoap is all over the sides and bottoms even though it may not be obvious to you. This can cause bumps or cause issues with the adhesive. Wrapping the sides is preferable to having to cut the sliver sections for top, sides and bottom as the wrap will tend to peel at the edges from hands and wear and tear. Steam from sinks, stoves and showers will also cause some adhesives to soften. If you are going to (re)paint the inside of the cabinets, do this before the doors and cabinets so the paint doesn't end up on the new wrap. When reattaching the doors to the cabinets, some cabinets will not take the new hardware or the site for the fasteners may be damaged. Break a wooden matchstick in half and put the pieces in the hole to give the fastener a better hold into the cabinet. Lastly, run a bead of caulk where the cabinet meets the wall and where they meet the ceiling or the dropdown for the lightbox. This will give it a cleaner look. and that gap won't be glaring out at you or your guests. One more thing- go back to the store or the website and order a backup roll if you love the results. Things happen and you may need to 'band-aid' a door or cabinet unexpectedly. It is better to have a roll on hand than for it to be discontinued and not be able to keep it covered. Good luck! Be patient with neighbors and friends
I'm wondering the same thing?? They did a beautifully detailed job, but RUclips video's often tend to make projects look easier than what they are & I doubt some of these low cost "solutions" last long. Peel & stick worries me, as it tends to fall off sometimes. Yet these are specifically cabinet stickers? I'll have to look it up, but an update would be grateful appreciated I 💯 agree!! My neighbor has the same drab, ugly oak cabinets in her condo and she took peel & stick pretty pattern and applied it to the insets of the shaker style door & face of the drawers, and replaced the hardware so it would match nicely & despite you can still see the wooden cabinet, the wallpaper touches make a huge difference!! It turned out so beautifully I have debating my options now after being quoted at least $4 grand to paint them by N-Hance. I've been warned not to put money into my property, so it's hard to justify and my neighbors solution was $60 bucks. I am laminating my peninsula professionally, along with getting countertops replaced. It's really hard to get things to blend nicely together and difficult to only do certain things, it's a trap!! It's also hard if you attempt a project & it doesn't turn out good, you then have fewer options than you started and may need to enlist professional help which is expensive. I've come to hate kitchens & real estate in general.
Aaron Oneill yea, still looking pretty good! I have a video on my channel with my “makeover” and linked in the description is the contact paper I used on mine. I went with a matte black on the cabinets and a wood grain on my counters. Hope this helps!
We bought a house with that really expensive hard laminate on the cabinets and it sucks. It’s coming off and it runs under your nails and makes them bleed. I might try this.
Like others have asked, I am truly curious how this clever project of yours held up over the test of time?? Was is peel & stick wallpaper or cabinet sticker's, do they even make those? I'm guessing it was just wallpaper that sticks on its own. Please give a current update? We'd really be grateful. Thank you!! You did a beautiful job but I'm weary of temporary wallpaper & it's sticking power, and how it stayed up in the elements. My guess is it's been a while, you may have a different look going on now. 🤷🏼♀️
U need to buy the ones that is made especially for cabinets not for walls. The stickers sticks stronger for cabinets wallpapers and it is thicker. Just for info. ☺
I tried this just now, how the heck to you wrap the corners of the cupboards so you can't see the fold??? its like wrapping a tight xmas gift w/ perfect corners. Seems like you can see some of the dark color through the contact paper, no?
Omg, I am sitting here on the floor with my cupboard door wrapped in wallpaper but I can't figure out how to do the corners. I've looked on Google I've looked on RUclips and I can't find one single video that shows how to do the corners. How to wrap the edges so it goes all around the corners of the cupboard I'm so frustrated!!
Amazing!! Can you please tell me how you edited the beginning? Did you photoshop yourself out? How did the items disappear without you being in the video??
WHAT A BEAUTIFULLY ACHIEVED PROJECT. WELL DONE! I LOVE THE WOOD GRAIN COVERING YOU CHOSE! GREAT JOB!
I just love to watch your precision in doing that stuff
Great job!! This is my inspiration 😊
Wow, this transformation really brightened up your kitchen!
This is absolutely beautiful.

What color paper did you purchase? Not sure if this is white or a cream color. Great transformation.
This video was made two years ago, I’m interested to know how the kitchen has stood up to the test of time? Any damage or peeling etc?

Vry nice tutorial👌👌👌👌
How long do these peel & stick wallpapers last?
Nice job. I used traditional wallpaper to wallpaper an old baby grand piano that looked horrible after I painted it.
Amazing job
Nice! May I know the color of your sticker paper an its brand?
Amazing job!!! Thank you for the video, I just redid my kitchen cabinets and it was soooo worth it! Thanks for the inspo 😁😁

My half bath's removable wall paper was installed10 years ago. Other than losing the design from repeated contact with hands and fingers.
Amazing!
Very nice thanks for sharing
Update please how long paper stick there.
U need to buy the ones that is made especially for cabinets not for walls. The stickers sticks stronger for cabinets wallpapers and it is thicker. Just for info. ☺
Thank you 😊
How many rolls did you needed?
You are amazing 😉
How did it hold up?
What grit sandpaper did you use?
hello what is that item called to clean out air bubbles?
It's a spackle knife or spackle spreader. Very cheap and easy to find at hardware stores
How long will stay
Awesome! Which color wallpaper did you use?
I used the White Wood. Left the link to the wallpaper I used under description.
Very nice, great job.
Looks good! Where did you purchase the wallpaper?
Please share where did you buy the wall paper?
Aliexpress
Sorry for late response. I bought it at Amazon here --> amzn.to/3hgGfku
@@interiordesignbox3349 Did you get white silver gold?
Where can I buy the peel and stick?
Amazon. Or home depot
There is peel and stick for everything
What are all the tools you used?
Can I use a regular cutter in removing excess stickers?
I think it's better to use x-acto because it cuts precisely.
I tried this just now, how the heck to you wrap the corners of the cupboards so you can't see the fold??? its like wrapping a tight xmas gift w/ perfect corners. Seems like you can see some of the dark color through the contact paper, no?

どこでかったですか？
Anybody know what color she have ?
White
Amazing!! Can you please tell me how you edited the beginning? Did you photoshop yourself out? How did the items disappear without you being in the video??
Looks like it's just a bunch of pictures. The camera has to be steady so you take a picture, then remove an item, take another picture and so on.
Lmao
👍👍👍
use heat gun
Mujhse to nhi lga maine to chhod diya lagana
Shush
Video is good but that muzak has to go!
Can't stand the music. Maybe learn how to talk to us and explain a bit more? I did like the transformation.
Maybe shove off and go look elsewhere?
Amazing!
