For us, kitchen cabinets are the centrepiece of the kitchen. You might paint the kitchen walls every few years, regularly add art or hang pictures, bring in plants or some form of greenery, but the kitchen cabinets are special. Often homeowners don’t even consider repainting their cabinets thinking the only option is to replace them for a huge expense but that’s not the case.
Below we give a few tips on what you can do and consider refreshing and vitalising your kitchen cabinets.
What is the Best Colour for Cabinets?
Cabinet colours are a very important part of the kitchen design. They can either make or break the look and feel of the kitchen. So, it is important to choose the right colour for your cabinets.
There are many factors that should be considered before choosing a cabinet colour. The most important factor is your personal taste and preference. There are certain colours that will suit your personality better than others and this should be taken into account before you choose a colour for your cabinets.
Other factors to consider when choosing cabinet colours include:
– The style of your kitchen (modern, traditional, country)
– Your available budget
– Your level of expertise with painting
What are the Different Cabinet Finishes?
There are many different types of finishes for cabinets, but the most popular finish is paint.
Paint is a great way to get a unique look for your kitchen. It can be used on just the cabinet doors or all four sides of the cabinets. If you want to cover up an old kitchen, paint is a great way to do it.
Paint can also be used as a protective coat on the cabinet surfaces that are in contact with food. This can help prevent any kind of staining or damage that may occur, keeping your cabinets looking like new.
You should always use a primer before painting over your cabinets because it will make them last longer and protect them from any damage that may occur during the painting process.
Choosing the Right Colour and Finishes for Your Kitchen Cabinets
Choosing the right colour and finish for your kitchen cabinets is a tough decision. It is important to know what kind of cabinets you have before you can choose the right colour or finish.
There are many factors to consider when choosing the right colour or finish for your kitchen cabinets. For example, whether you want your kitchen to be modern, traditional, or rustic. You also need to think about what kind of look you want in your kitchen such as the sleek Ikea feel, which is very popular at the moment, or traditional grain feel.
When it comes to colours consider
Warm colours like reds, oranges, and yellows for an all year round autumn feel.
Cool colours like a shade or white, blues and greens to open up the house for a bright and airy feel.
Pastels such as pink, lilac, lemon or grey to get a traditional feel.
