Cabinet Transformations that Will Blow Your Mind

Tired, old cabinets that are scratched and dull in your Boulder, CO, home are begging for a facelift. If your kitchen still has an 80’s vibe, it’s time to consider a cabinet makeover. Painting the kitchen cabinets can be one of the easiest ways to add value to your house and to improve its appearance. At Jacobsen Brothers Painting, we love breathing new life into old cupboards and there’s no better way to do that than a fresh application of professional paint.

Colors that transform

Now is the time to choose a color palette that transforms your kitchen into the attractive, appetizing space you’ve always wanted. Want a cheerful gathering place? Try a sunny goldenrod color to keep the party going. Want a peaceful place to concentrate on your cooking? A brush of thyme against a backdrop of linen white walls will win you over. Want energy without compromising style? Consider mariner blue and crisp white.

Set the base apart

A trend that isn’t going away anytime soon is painting the base cabinets a darker hue than the upper cabinets. This serves two purposes. It anchors the room and it allows you to choose a dramatic color that won’t overwhelm the whole space. Dark blue or arugula green are two possibilities for the base color, but you are only limited by your imagination.

Don’t forget the inside

Want to add glass cabinet doors or remove the doors entirely? We can paint the inside of the cabinets a dark color to make your white dishware pop, or use a bright color to marry well with your patterns. A few thoughtful additions of lighting can finish the look.

Should the island blend in or stand out?

Your kitchen island can be the centerpiece of your color design, or it can quietly join the base wall cabinets in color. It’s up to you! Whatever you decide, remember that the island is likely the first thing that people will see when they enter the kitchen, so it will set the mood for the entire space.

Bathrooms have cabinets, too

While you’re at it, don’t forget that grungy, old, dark cabinet in the bathroom. Imagine how much it will impact the room if it was a vibrant color or a crisp, clean white. We can make that happen. Think about your favorite color and how it would look as a cabinet in the bathroom. Everything from deep lilac to fern green to razzleberry blue could look amazing if done with a professional hand.
