Two
coats of buttery yellow
enamel paint catapult Plain
Jane white builder's
cabinets into the spotlight.
Wrapping the island with
beaded-board paneling turns
it into a focal point.
Two
shades of lime green paint
juice up a sleepy 1920s
kitchen. Faux asparagus
spears (instead of pulls)
and vintage-look glass knobs
dress up cabinet doors and
drawer fronts.
Dingy walnut cabinets
receive a black-tie makeover
with graphite-gray paint and
sparkling brushed-nickel
hardware. Adding
architectural trim above and
below the upper cabinets
gives them a sense of drama.
These cabinets get their
Swedish good looks from
repeated stenciled white
motifs on a cool periwinkle
painted background.
Brushed-silver hardware
shimmers without detracting
from the graceful white
motifs. Pale yellow walls
help make the blue cabinets
pop.
Boring brown cabinets now
offer streamlined style
after several coats of white
paint masked their dated
golden oak facade. Removing
cabinet doors makes it
possible to use an upper
cabinet for display and to
hang a soft fabric curtain
beneath the sink.
Multiple layers of
stenciling in brown and
cream add timeworn elegance
to a ho-hum kitchen. Chunky
copper-look hardware teams
well with the faux-tile
stenciled designs.
