1. Vintage Oak Kitchen Cabinet

A true vintage kitchen cabinet is a rare catch, and it usually comes at a high price. However, vintage kitchen cabinets are some of the most charming kitchen cabinets around. The one pictured above is from the Hoosier brand, which was a huge furniture provider for the antebellum United States, and it is still capable of stirring the nostalgia of any Southern auntie. A strong point of this kitchen cupboard is the elegant deep wood color and classic shapes.

2. Vintage Wood-Made Spice Rack

If you are looking for rustic kitchen cabinets, this one might be for you! It looks so authentic and lovely that it can immediately lend a feeling of home even to the least friendly of kitchens. Its little black and red floral details are hand-painted. The wooden details are hand-carved. Even if you can’t find the exact same model when you read this article, you can usually find dozens of similar ones online.

3. Classic White Kitchen Cabinet

There are plenty of reasons to acquire one of the many white kitchen cabinets available in shops. To start with, in spite of its apparent simplicity, its lines are round and very sweet. Then, the squeaky clean feeling you get in a traditional white kitchen is almost impossible to obtain anywhere else. It’s true that there’s also a strong trend of painted kitchen cabinets. However, white kitchen cabinets remain the classic elegance standard for kitchen furniture.

4. Custom Kitchen Cabinet

Yes, this is another variation of the classic white cupboard, but look how elegant the twin kitchen cabinet is! As we were just saying above, some standards never die. The opportunity of making custom kitchen cabinets was, until recently, out of reach. Well, not any more. With R.D. Henry & Company, ordering and purchasing furniture tailored to your space requirements and taste is now a viable option. We couldn’t be more enthusiastic about this venture.

5. Do-It-Yourself Painted Kitchen Cabinets

If you’re looking for more kitchen cabinet colors, it’s easier than you think. Start by placing some lightly colored wooden cabinets of equal size on your walls. Then, purchase a semi-glossy paint in different bright shades and get to work! You can paint your kitchen cabinets plainly, like in the picture featured here, or you can play around with dual combinations or whatever suits your inspiration and fancy.

Just remember, before starting, that using a semi-glossy type of paint is the best way to go. If you use a non-glossy paint, it will be too rough, and can even make your cleaning towels cling to the surface! Therefore, the semi-glossy ground is the best way to go. Think of this as a brilliantly fun activity which allows you to customize your kitchen cabinet colors. Even more, you can change the colors whenever you want. Have fun!

6. Tall Kitchen Cabinet

If you enjoy spending a fair share of time in the kitchen, making or serving all sorts of delicacies or fine drinks, tall kitchen cabinets are for you. Big storage cabinets for kitchen goodies and objects are really a source of zen and tranquility for the house.

Last, but not least, contemporary kitchen cabinets tend to be quite small or modular. Seeing a big kitchen cabinet creates a strong positive impression on any viewer. If you manage to get your hands on a kitchen cupboard like this, you’ll soon notice the guests’ fascination with it. As for yourself, you’ll hardly be able to resist filling it with teas, fancy liquors, and other goodies.

7. Different Finishes Kitchen Cabinets

If you are a fan of DIY kitchen cabinets, you can obtain a cupboard as beautiful as the one above! Just ask the carpenter to use different finishes and colors on the cabinet. The effect equals the effortless romantic look of a seaside lighthouse, especially considering those round arches at the top of the closet. Consider making something similar using this different finish trick, and it will be easier than it seems now.

8. Image-Painted Kitchen Cabinet

Why not go all the way when bringing seaside into your kitchen? This seaside painted kitchen cabinet is only one of the various suggestions available. To get your hands on one of these, talk to a professional carpenter or custom furniture store and tell them what you want. It shouldn’t be too hard. Just try to maintain the overall color theme of the whole kitchen, to make sure the final result stays on the classy side of things.

And while you’re at it, why not consider a poppy-seed painted kitchen cabinet with red kitchen chairs? Or maybe a green grass and flowers painted cupboard, with light green or yellow kitchen floor tiles. The possibilities when refinishing kitchen cabinets are literally endless.

9. Black and White Kitchen Cabinets

Another timeless combination which will never get old is the duo of black and white. This also applies to the classic yet modern elegance of an all-black-and-white kitchen. It’s not extremely difficult to obtain the result in the image above, but you need to arm yourself with a bit of patience. Do a small amount of preventative research. Then, buy black and white semi-glossy paint and get to working. Keep in mind to alternate between black and white blocks! This pretty and neat contrast will give your kitchen a truly elegant effect, in the end.

10. Minimalist Kitchen Cabinets

This clean cut and neutral-toned kitchen setting gives plenty of room to breathe. If you don’t really like ornamental details or too heavily decorated furniture, then contemporary kitchen cabinets are for you. The iconic prints above the cupboards lend the kitchen a touch of style, in spite of the overall minimalist feel. Should you want it, a kitchen like this is pretty easy to obtain with a bit of help from an interior decorator.

11. Rose Gold Kitchen Cabinets

Rose gold is all the rage right now when it comes to fashion, style, but also interior design. If you want to incorporate some of that industrial feel into your kitchen, we recommend a rose gold hardware kitchen cabinet. The rose gold tones are complemented by the pastel mint shelves and cupboards, providing the whole kitchen with a fresh, outdoorsy look. If your kitchen is particularly bright, like the one in the picture above, these colors will only enhance the lightness even more.

12. Stained Pine Kitchen Cabinets

If you enjoy dark interior decor, and you want to bring that into your kitchen as well, you might want to try furnishing it with stained pine cupboards. The most impressive thing about these kitchen cabinets is the fact that they have different colors according to the amount of light in the kitchen. Regardless, they will always have a gray undertone that provides any kitchen with class and poise.

13. Farmhouse Kitchen Cabinet

If you’re all for DIYs, and you also enjoy the farmhouse look, you can repurpose some old cupboards and chicken wire, and create something similar to the kitchen cabinets in the image above. Not only will this look make a statement in terms of kitchen design ideas, but it will also be practical for you in the kitchen, since the chicken wire allows you to see inside of the cupboards, so that you know where to look for different items.

Final Word

Hopefully, you’ve enjoyed browsing through our top suggestions for kitchen cabinets and storage options, and you’ve found the inspiration for a design that best suits your tastes and space requirements. Remember that even redecorating the kitchen every now and then with a new layer of paint can make you feel like you’ve had a fresh start in your home, so don’t neglect such small-scale opportunities for renewal.
