Cabinet Glazing - First Try...

So about a week ago (pre-heat wave) I attempted to "glaze" the back of one of our bathroom cabinets as a test...and it looks exactly the same.

Update: I did originally try to glaze the inside edge as a test as well to no avail, but Melaine at My Sweet Savannah has also suggested brown paint. So, I will try to allow the Sherwood to set longer, even sand the edges a bit first and give the brown paint a try. Sure glad this is the inside of a cabinet from our upstairs guest bathroom that never gets used!

But don't fear, I am not giving up. I will definitely try the Sherwood again...although due to the current heat wave in the Northwest, I am waiting until it is a bit cooler - in my experience hot weather and glaze don't mix very well. If anyone has any great ideas, please shoot them my way.

To Paint or Glaze...

I really want to update my current kitchen cabinets. As of right now I would LOVE distressed white but I am open to an inexpensive change. So I was thinking about applying a "glaze" to our existing color. My Mom and I did a little research and recently purchased Sherwood from Sherwin Williams. It is a glaze that you can put over sealed surfaces.

Here is the color of our current cabinets:

I think I will start on the back of a cabinet door in the laundry room. Stay tuned...
