Fresh Paint Ideas for Your Kitchen
Since the busy, exciting days of summer are now gone for this year, people everywhere are falling into a routine schedule as autumn and winter seasons approach. For many reasons, people are spending more and more time indoors, and if you are one of those people, and you are looking for some new ways to enhance your home, then perhaps beginning with your kitchen space is the right choice for you. The kitchen is often the most widely used room within a home, and it is quite easy to update and enhance this room, with just a little bit of creativity and effort.
One common trend is to paint the island of your kitchen a different color than the kitchen cabinets. Painting the island a unique color, allows the focal point to develop at the island and also gives your kitchen area an interesting bit of flair. Classic paint choices, such as black, grey, or dark blue will stand out nicely against white kitchen cabinets. You may also decide to paint a bolder color, such as burnt orange, teal, or hunter green. Whatever the style is that you want to create, a simple painting of your kitchen island can really add some pizzazz and appeal to your kitchen space.
Another paint idea is to paint your cabinets in a two-tone pattern. Many homeowners are going with the trend of painting the upper cabinets one color, and the lower cabinets another color. Complimentary colors provide for a distinctive, colorful appeal to any kitchen.
Lastly, a simple way to add some unique style to your kitchen is to paint one accent wall within the area. Choose a wall that you want to have stand out above the rest, such as the wall around the kitchen table, or the wall behind the stove or sink. Whichever wall you choose to paint as an accent wall will become the new focal point in the kitchen space.
Fall is a great time of year to jazz things up a bit within your home, and what better place to start, than in the kitchen of your home. With just a little bit of research and creativity, you will be amazed at the difference a little bit of paint can make in this busy and active room within your humble abode.
