Ivory White, Linen White, White Dove BM Color Dilema
Comments (24)Ivory white is not Acadia white. Ivory white #925 is in the Classic colors fandeck and Acadia white #OC38 is in the Preview colors fandeck. They are very close in color. jbrodies' kitchen that was recently posted as finished has cabinets in Acadia White. Here's a pic of ours while being remodeled. We're not quite done yet, but you can get an idea of the Ivory White color. The wall next to the cabinet has been primed so it is white in color and you can see the Ivory white next to it has a bit of yellow creaminess to it. My hutch top is walnut so you can see it next to brown. Also, I have a lot of natural light in my kitchen, during the evening the cabs look even more creamy. I think either color would look great with Tropical Brown....See MoreWhich white for kitchen cabs and trim?
Comments (11)prairiemom and gsciencechick, your posts came just at the right time with your pictures since I am almost ready to paint my kitchen cabinets. I really wanted to change them but it is too costly so I will have to find someone to help me prime them and paint them. I need more light in my home. I love both the Chantily White and the BM Dove White colors. The BM White Heron walls are also very nice. My trim is BM White everywhere but I think BM White cabinets would be a little bit too white? What do you think? I need to chance the lights in the kitchen and the floor and counters but with my new car purchase (my car is 8 years old and does not protect my head since the head rest is not adjustable so I had enough and have been looking for a car that would be comfortable for a petite person like I am and I just found it), I really can only do a little bit at a time in my kitchen. I just really can't stand the laminate oak 20 year old kitchen cabinets anymore....See MoreNeed BM colors for Trim, Doors, and Kitch. Cabs
Comments (10)We have BM Paint on all our walls but chose to use white Cabinet Coat on our trim. I love the finish and how it goes on. I used to buy it from Ace Hardware but our local Ace store closed so I searched the Cabinet Coat website and saw it listed as available at our Benjamin Moore store. My great BM paint guy said that Benjamin Moore had acquired the company that makes Cabinet Coat so they have the ability to get it too - it just takes a week or so to special order it. Do a search for "Cabinet Coat" on the boards here and you'll find lots of posts. Cabinet Coat is self-priming (although I did use a good primer on our oil based trim and would probably do the same on kitchen cabinets to ensure adhesion) and self-leveling which means it leaves a beautiful, even finish. Hope that helps! Good luck on your project!...See MoreWhite Dove and trim
Comments (28)Lisa..my last house had cabinets that were one color..a gorgeous vintage, white color and the trim was a different color..SW Creamy. It just complicated things especially since the crown for the kitchen was different than the house crown both in style and color. My carpenters made it work however. It looked pretty good. this new house has BM White Dove on all of the House trim and the cabinetry. I am using the same crown on the cabinets as the rest of the house. It looks good and has made everything so much simpler. Even the ceilings are White Dove. The White Dove is a nice, neutral color. Not too creamy imo, but not too white....See Moreakl_vdb
