Need paint color suggestions/advice for kitchen cabinets
Comments (5)I looked at Elephant Breath (SW I think), Revere Pewter by BM, and couple others. They looked just great when put on the horizontal surface; the moment I turned the painted samples vertically as kitchen cabinets would ultimately be, they lost their warmth and seemed much cooler and dull, in any light-inside the house and in the full sun outside. I ended up looking at 14(!) samples taking them around the house and checking them in different lights and times of a day. In the end, I went with a custom color that I happened to stumble upon in our carpenter's shop. It was a formula that was mixed by some designer for a very high end kitchen in Malibu..It turned out to be wonderful. The cabinets are installed and make me happy each time I look at them. But it's not gray. I don't even know what I should call this color. I just know I like it lol. Get samples; you never know how a color would behave until you try it. It will be tiresome; but ultimately you will be pleased with your choice....See MoreI’m looking for advice on white paint color for kitchen cabinets.

Comments (2)Yia Sou Apostolos! It helps to start with inspiration images, so if you have images of kitchens you like, post them. You have so many options - this will help to whittle them down. Are these your floors? If so, here’s what I’m seeing. This is BM Cloud White OC-130 for the cabinets and trim. This leaves you with lots of options for the walls. You could stay neutral with BM Manchester Tan HC-81, or you could choose something cheery like BM Picture Perfect 734. Let us know what images inspire you, and we will get right on it....See MoreUser
