Joy, I have your same question and am looking all over for an answer. The sides of most inexpensive cabinets are laminate material and I don’t want orange end pieces showing from my living room! Good luck!

LOVE this post! The tables look amazing, and you are quite creative! I realize it’s been a couple of years since this was last active, but I’m hoping since you said you love using Briwax that you might be able to help me. I am redoing my kitchen cabinets using Briwax and LOVING the look. My problem is that my cabinet faces are veneer and are “taking” the wax differently than the cabinet fronts (What are they called? The parts you see right above/beside/below the doors?) I have tried several layers of the wax and it just isn’t working. My cabinet doors look like your tables but the other areas are still orange! Do you have any suggestions of what I can do to those parts to make them blend/take the wax? They are original 1960’s orange colored cabinets that have a polyurethane stain on them. I chose Briwax because I didn’t want to sand. 🙂 Any suggestions? Thanks for sharing your project!

If you don’t wax first, the black caulk will stain the wood in the areas where you don’t want it to.

I do have a question about the caulk – can you caulk the voids prior to applying the wax? Thinking if it’s not advisable to get the wax too wet, could this step be done first?
