I selected an all in one Primer and Paint from Home Depot. I don't remember the color, it's in the garage, I could go look but.... I do remember there are 1000 different kinds of white. I finally choose one.
The doors were removed and labeled with corresponding numbers so I would remember which door went where.
In my garage I painted the doors early Friday evening, working into the night.
I then painted the cabinets themselves, which was the hardest part of the job. Covering and taping.
Notice that I did not remove anything from the cabinets. This is afterall a DIY and not a professional job. Everything got at least two coats of paint.
By Sunday evening everything was completed. If I had to do it over. I would solicit help. It is not a perfect DIY, but it made a WORLD of difference to my Little, Bitty, Kitchen! I still enjoy the end results today! I apologize for the picture quality. These were taken with my cell phone.

You did a fantastic job! The white cabinets really opens up the space. I don't think I removed anything out of my cabinets either. Honestly I don't even remember thinking to do that. Like you, when I did my space over I just jumped in and did it. No regrets although I see some places that could have been painted better had I known how at the time.
I started my project alone and then some girlfriends came over and leant a hand. Thankfully too because they borrowed power tools which made removing the hardware that much easier and faster!
Again, fantastic job!
