When it comes to painting kitchen cabinets white is a beautiful, classic choice and for good reason, too. If you are considering selling your home in the near future, most potential buyers will appreciate how easily a kitchen with white cabinets can be decorated to suit their style. But what if you are planning to stay in your home for some time or just want to try something a little more daring than basic white? With so many great paint colors available you are bound to find one that will give your kitchen that unique, personal touch you desire.
Warm and Welcoming in Red
Kitchen cabinets painted red make a bold statement. In a high gloss finish on minimally decorated cabinets red paint can make a kitchen feel sleek and exciting, but red cabinets aren’t just for ultra modern kitchens. The more traditionally-styled lower cabinets in the kitchen above were painted red then topped with a coat of black glaze to create a rich, burst of color in an otherwise neutral space.
A Cheerful Yellow Kitchen
Yellow instantly makes even the darkest spaces feel bright and works especially well in the kitchen. Commonly used on kitchen walls, yellow painted cabinets are a fun twist on a traditional kitchen color that pairs beautifully with black and white.
Going Green
Green may not be a color you typically think of for a kitchen, but we think cabinets look dramatic with a coat of hunter green paint on them. Keeping the other elements of your kitchen lighter in color lets the cabinets be the star of the show and keeps the space feeling bright.
Beautiful in Blue
Blue has become an increasingly popular color choice for kitchen cabinets. Cabinets painted in robin’s egg blue feel fresh and reflect light well, making even the smallest kitchens seem brighter. But we are seeing dark blue painted kitchen cabinets pop up more and more in homes these days, too.
Choosing the Perfect Color for Your Kitchen Cabinets
Your kitchen is one of the most used spaces in your home and one you should be happy to walk into every single day. Whether you prefer bold and dramatic colors, something cheerful and bright, or a slight twist on tradition, painting your kitchen cabinets in a color that reflects your tastes is an exciting way to showcase your personal style.
