Painting wooden built in wardrobes

[b21playa]

Hi all

What would be the best method and products to paint the attached wardrobe.

The wood makes the room look dark, and would like to wait it white

Thanks

Just about to do something similar. I have bought zinsser bin primer to cover them then a couple of coats of dulux trade diamond eggshell in PBW

It may not suit your furniture but I recently repainted an orange pine wardrobe someone had given me. I used Annie Sloan chalk paint. It looks brilliant. No preparation of any sort is required and only needs one coat. I may wax it, not sure yet

You can't paint that white, it's sacralige.

They make the room smaller. Painting them white will smarten it up.

Never know, when I get around to painting them, I might have a change of mind
