3 Best Colours for Cabinet Painting

Posted on July 28, 2021

The kitchen is by far the most utilized room in the home. It is prone to look more and more drab as the years go by thanks to chipped and dreary cabinets. While you might consider taking on the project yourself, painting cabinets takes specialized training to ensure the cabinets stand up to repeated touches and slams from the family getting late night snacks. 

Just as important as function, though, is the actual look of the cabinets. ​​Kitchen cabinets are a major focal feature in the room, and changing the colour of them can completely change the room. Adding in new paint on what little wall is left can change the entire room for a fraction of the price. To make your process easier, our professionals have compiled a list of our top three colours for kitchen cabinet painting. 

Timeless White

White is great for a kitchen that already has a lot of colour in other areas. For example, with a colourful countertop, appliances or walls, choosing a white colour for the cabinets is perfect. White is especially great in modern interiors to update old wood. One of our favorite shades is Cool White by Sherwin-Williams.

Bold Black

If you’re looking for a more dramatic option for your home, it is hard to go wrong with black. This colour has been really successful as a backdrop. If you have a two toned look with lighter cabinets on top and this on the bottom, your kitchen will be stunning! When used for cabinets that include a kitchen island, this colour is particularly adept at hiding dings and scuff marks. If you have feisty kids and pets, this may be an additional bonus. We recommend The Spruce Best Home Phantom Black. 

Sage Green

Green is a classic colour to include in your kitchen. Nature draws us in and comforts the soul, and it has the same effect inside your home! Shades of green with yellow undertones do an especially good job at warming the room while giving you the feeling of picnicking on a plain of daisies. We recommend The Spruce Best Home Matcha or Farrow & Ball Pigeon No. 25.
