Looking for a quick way to transform your kitchen? Invest in a fresh coat of paint—and remember that your walls aren’t the only thing worth repainting. Since cabinets are the most visible element in any kitchen, they probably deserve a tune-up more than your walls do.
“Nothing is more impactful than a fresh coat of paint,” Mary Maloney, owner and principal designer at Bee's Knees Interior Design, says. “Paint can revive, refresh, and add new life to a tired and dated kitchen.”
When it comes to repainting your kitchen cabinets, there are a few things you’ll want to consider. For starters, what does the rest of your space look like? “Plan and coordinate carefully,” Maloney says. “Think about how the colors will relate to all the other elements and connecting spaces.”
Then, consider other factors—like your home’s architectural style, and how long you plan to live in your home before reselling it. (Spoiler alert: If you plan to sell soon, Maloney recommends keeping your space as classic and versatile as possible.)
Once you’ve narrowed down your selection, you’ll still have plenty of great paint colors to choose from. So to help you pick the perfect shade for your space, we’ve rounded up some strikingly painted kitchen cabinets, and we asked designers to share their go-to kitchen cabinet painting advice.
