    When we last left off, we were preparing to upgrade our kitchen cabinets from the off-the-rack Ikea finish with some help from PANYL, a new company whose mission is to help spruce up standard Ikea units with a proprietary self-adhesive vinyl application. As you may recall, the Park Slope-based start-up offered to give us a free makeover to demonstrate its proprietary approach to IKEA hacking. We’d installed IKEA kitchen cabinets when we were renovating back in 2005 and had grown tired of the faux-wood finish. Mrs. B ended up selecting an orange for the upper units and went with a dark gray for the lowers. We were a little nervous about the bold call but gotta say we’re loving the result. For the fainter of heart, there are lots of other colors and finishes to choose from on the company’s website. The materials for our makeover would have come out to about $650 had we actually had to pay for them retail. A few action shots of the installation on the jump…
