1. Bright Yellow Kitchen Cabinets
The kitchen above exemplifies how bright yellow cabinets can cheer up a kitchen space. With modern gold fixtures, minimalist decor, and white countertops, the yellow doesn’t feel too overwhelming in this design. If the yellow in this kitchen is a little too vibrant for your taste, a lighter shade would look just as bright and uplifting.

If eccentric, highlighter-like colors aren’t your taste, then try going for a more subtle yet bold color. This beautiful army green color is a great example. It’s a bold choice without being too bright, and makes the space feel more warm and welcoming. Paired with the light pink backsplash, this kitchen demonstrates that fun colors don’t have to overwhelm the space.

3. Kitchen Island Color Pop
Another great way to add bright color to your kitchen is to paint the kitchen island. If you go for a bold color on the island, white shaker cabinets are a sensible option for the rest of the space. This can be done with any color, yet this bright plum tone is a beautiful option. Two-toned kitchens are rising in popularity as they bring contrast and visual interest to any kitchen size or layout.

If you can’t find cabinets in this shade, we recommend purchasing our premium ready-to-assemble shaker cabinets and painting them your desired color.
