Have you seen those little rubber tools that you drag over wet paint, and it's supposed to look like wood? Well they work pretty good and it's easy too. Here's my kitchen make-over if anyone wants to see it. It looks kinda like I put up wainscoating!

Awe shucks, I'd love to see it, but I have to sign in. Is there any other way you can show them to us?

Oh, It's an aol album, I forgot. Here's some pics. It had yucky dark paneling in this small kitchen, you can see where someone tried to patch the paneling when they reduced the window for an a/c unit, bad job. But look at it now!

Wow, that looks nice. I bought one of those rubber tools too. I was thinking of using it on some metal doors, to make them look like wood. I was afraid to try it, but maybe I will now...
