Hello! Welcome to a Designed Home post. Have you have ever considered painting your kitchen cabinets? I painted ours a creamy white a couple of years ago and I am hooked:
Recently I was hired by a client to paint her cabinets. She wanted to brighten up her kitchen that felt a little dark.
BEFORE
We discussed paint colors and decided on a creamy white to match her beautiful counter tops, and then I went to work sanding, priming and painting!
AFTER
The transformation was incredible! After the painting was complete, she added knobs for the final touch. My new friend now has a beautiful, bright kitchen for a fraction of the cost of installing new cabinets.
KITCHEN DESIGN TIP–add a lamp for the kitchen counter. Since this client leaves her kitchen lights off most of the time, a lamp adds a great touch of warmth and glow to a dark corner.
I will share a more detailed post in the future on HOW to carry out painting kitchen cabinets if you are interested.
Blessings!

Every once in a while, I think about doing this. I would really like to buy new cabinets and countertops, but it can get SSOOO pricey! Then I think to myself “maybe painting is the way to go”.
Sara, it is such a great way to find “peace” with what you currently have–you will feel like they are new!
Love this! I need to paint my cabinets.
Thanks Rachel– it took me 9 years to do mine but I am so glad I did!!
