Metal cabinets and wood cabinets can be painted in any color to perfectly match your kitchen.

Folk Art

If you aren’t handy with the paint brushes, you can hire a local artist to help with this. With the cabinets painted a neutral color, they can be highlighted with flowers, whimsical curls and elegant curls. Another great option is to use stencils to add beauty and interest to your plain kitchen cabinets.

Distressed Cabinets

A distressed finish is unique and subdued. It will help hide flaws and gives the kitchen an attractive, antique feel. Distressing a cabinet is a relatively simple process that will yield fantastic results. Apply a base coat and then use a sanding block to lightly sand the cabinets. Antiquing glaze should then be applied in small amounts to highlight the sanded areas and create the distressed look.

Cabinet colors are not limited to solid shades or wood stains. Folk art can add a whimsical feel to the home and distressing will create an elegant feel. The greatest benefit of painting the cabinets is that it’s a very affordable way to change the look of your kitchen.
