Before choosing a paint color for your kitchen cabinets, let’s consider some important factors unique to your kitchen. First, consider your kitchen space and lighting. If you have a galley kitchen, or minimal natural light, consider going for lighter or muted shades. If you have an open kitchen with lots of windows, consider two-toned cabinets to add a focal point. 

Trend Alert 

Maybe you are ready for a bold move and want to choose a color more on trend. In that case, pay attention to hues of green and blue, as they are trending in kitchens for 2022. In similar fashion, black appliances have been trending, which accommodates the darker shades of kitchen cabinets. 

Green 

Green cabinets give the kitchen an unexpected pop of color, which can be a nice change of pace from your typical white, gray, and beige. Check out Sherwin Williams’ Vintage Vessel (SW 9050) for a muted green, or Country Squire (SW 6475) for an emerald green. Before you commit to a color, see a couple of your newly painted cabinets to get a feel for your kitchen. 

Navy 

If you choose to go for a two-toned look, navy works well as a base color for your kitchen cabinets. Also, navy pairs exceptionally well with copper or brass hardware. If you are curious, In the Navy (SW 9178) is a beautiful, bold color choice.

Traditional 

If you want something a bit more timeless, there’s always the color families of white, gray, and beige. A white, or cream shade will add a timeless look that can be both refreshing and beautiful. Neutral cabinets give a kitchen a light and airy feel. It also allows for a stunning backsplash, kitchen island, or wood flooring to be the star of the show. If you are in the market for white, Sherwin Williams’ Snowbound (SW 7004) is a great choice to add warmth. 

Don’t Forget the Finish 

After your big color decision, you will want the right finish. Semi-gloss finish has a soft sheen, and makes it easy to clean, which is a popular choice. A flat or matte finish makes a statement, and disperses light, but is easier to scuff. Lastly, a satin finish is a great combination of the two.
