what colour should I paint my kitchen cabinets?

If you are considering painting your kitchen cabinets because they either look shabby or dated, you can always go with a classic white. But if you wanted to do something just a little bit different, yet still classic, try one of these colours.

All colours listed are Benjamin Moore

Best Whites - Classic and, really, never goes out of style

  • Cloud White - OC-130 - warm and classic

  • Simply White - OC-117 - warm and slightly brighter than Cloud White

  • Chantilly Lace - OC-65 - freshest of these three with a touch of warmth

Best Greiges - Classic and oh so trendy right now

  • Classic Gray - OC-23 - Light enough to almost read as white but dark enough to stand out next to a pure white (my personal favourite)

  • Balboa Mist - OC-27 - slightly darker than Classic Gray with a beautiful warmth

  • Thunder - AF-685 - a deeper greige that feels creamy and not too dark

Best Blacks - Dark and moody

  • Black Iron - 2120-20 - A touch off-black but reads as black and has no undertone of any other colour

  • Baby Seal Black - 2119-30 - slightly lighter than Black Iron with a hint of blue undertone

  • Black Forest Green - PM-12 - as the colour name suggests - there is green in this black

Here are some images of great kitchens with some of the colours mentioned above.
