Hi, friends! Among my favorite things to do, lives creating new designs. Today, I am sharing this fresh kitchen inspiration, featuring green painted cabinets, and I absolutely LOVE it! Am I trying to make things festive for St. Patrick’s Day (just a few days away)? Maybe, but the thing is, many shades of green on your kitchen cabinets provide a classic and timeless feel. To illustrate this, I have created this green kitchen mood board, and I am excited to explore it with you. Let’s jump in!

Timeless Selection: Cabinets Painted Green

With the help of some AI design tools, I created this kitchen which features a deeper shade of green – probably my go-to when selecting green for kitchen cabinets. Pairing the deep hue with classic white subway tile and brass fixtures elevates the look and presents a classic a timeless feel to the room.

Suggested Green Paint Colors

The color green stands as a symbol for renewal, balance, and harmony, making it one of the most universally used colors across places and environments that seek to promote hope and restoration. For your kitchen, eliciting these traits may not be the first thing we consider. Given a chance to step back and evaluate, I think most of us would agree that establishing this sense

Here are some colors I think might inspire you!

Curating a Classic Feel

To create a classic feel, here are some elements to consider:

• brass
• glass
• stoneware or pottery
• simple lines
• monochromatic design or simplified color schemes

Green Stoneware Dishes – Amazon

Gold Tea Kettle – Amazon

White Herringbone Vase – Amazon

Farmhouse Sink – Amazon

Selecting the Right Hardware

So one of the things that is NOT completely refined in this AI created kitchen inspo photo is the use of too many cabinet hardware styles. While I absolutely LOVE the ideas and overall concept depicted in our inspo pic, upon closer inspection, you will see that there are 4 different styles of hardware used throughout the kitchen. Sometimes this choice can work well within a certain design, but typically, using too many styles can cause your design to feel disjointed or busy, especially when you are trying to achieve a look that will stand the test of time. So you might be asking…what is the best rule for this?

Here are some suggested parings that will keep a look timeless:

Brushed Gold Handles – Amazon

Brushed Gold knobs – Amazon

Brass Cupped Handles – Amazon

Simple Brass Knobs – Amazon

Hi Friends,

How are you? I hope you’re back into the routine of normal schedules after a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and that your hearts are full from the practice of giving thanks. It’s such a good discipline in the valleys or on the mountaintops. We all have something to be grateful for!

For this week’s makeover, I’m excited to share a kitchen makeover where I did the design and then we painted the kitchen cabinets. I feel like we most often paint kitchens white, but in this case the kitchen went from white to green! If you’ve ever tried to pick a medium sage green, you can know how tricky that process can be. We went back and for on this kitchen, but landed on Benjamin Moore’s cedar mountain 706. I couldn’t love it more!! It’s hard to photograph this green because it looks so different based on the lighting, but click the link above to see the color on Benjamin Moore’s site.

Here’s the kitchen before:

We painted the kitchen main cabinets and peninsula Benjamin Moore’s cedar mountain 706. We also added new hardware, removed the wine fridge in the island and made a shelf for a microwave to free up more counter space, and sprayed everything with a protective clear coat. 

What an beautiful transformation!!
