Nesting: Colored Kitchen Cabinets

We've been living in full renovation mode around here. Every day there is a new project going on around here. I'm not gonna lie. I love this phase! It's fun to see dramatic "before & after" moments happening almost every day! This past week we decided to add a pop of color inside the kitchen cabinets.The color we chose is Sea Swell by Valspar. I wanted something crazy bright. We chose a pretty bright/white color scheme for this home, so when I find ways to work in intense, saturated color it's extra exciting. I love that now I will see a cheerful splash of color every time I reach for a coffee mug.You'll have to forgive the piece of trim that's missing from the tops of the cabinets. I'll be sure to share photos of the entire kitchen after our renovations are wrapped up. What do you think? Is a bright color inside your kitchen cabinets something you would try? Elsie 

ps. My wire baskets are from Amazon.

Love it! I did this in my kitchen as well with a lime green color. It adds some brightness to my otherwise neutral kitchen.

I love the pop of color--and what a lovely color to choose, too! I'm a huge fan of white dishes/bowls so I'll definitely put this project on my to-do list. :)

p.s. I really love those wire baskets, too!

Beautiful cabinets Elsie! I love the contrast of the white dishes against the bright blue.

This makes the dish-ware pop! It's all in the details.

Best,

When Phil and I lived with my brother, he painted the inside of his cabinets bright yellow. I wrote about his kitchen transformation back in my Apartment Therapy days (http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/before-after-kitchen-transform-138143), though I never included the inside of his cabinets! Silly me. His makeover was basically just paint. But still, dramatic. I miss those days when we were constantly working on his house!

Oh my. I have some white cabinets with little glass windows in it. I now am thinking that some colour in those would look astonishing! I have to start baking cake for a birthday tomorrow, but now all I want to do is get some paint :-D

I love it! I never would have thought of something like this, it is really beautiful and I LOVE the contrast of the white :)

I absolutely love painting the inside of cabinets. It gives the room an extra pop of unexpected but lovely color!

And you picked such a wonderful color! Love!

[Angelica]

Ah! I would LOVE to try this! That emerald color is so perfect, especially for complementing the white!

[Kitty]

They look gorgeous I really wish the inside of my cupboards would look that good!

[Sonia]

Love this idea and love the colour against the white!

I actually really like it with the unpainted piece of trim up there - I think white, teal and that oaky color are really pretty together! Those bins are amazing and that color pop definitely makes a bright, fun statement in the kitchen.

This is amazing! Great way to get some colour into a white/grey kitchen! I love it!

[Amber]

What color is that? I love it!
