Colours of the month: beautiful bright shades for solid oak kitchen cabinets

Posted by admin on May 25, 2016 at 8:34 am. Filed under: General

May’s warm and welcoming ‘Colours of the Month’ are perfect for a kitchen that doubles up as a cosy spot for entertaining guests. If throwing dinner parties is a common activity in your house, why not serve up one of these bright and inviting shades for a stove-side gathering where everyone feels right at home. Whether you are creating a feature wall or choosing painted frontals for solid oak kitchen cabinets, these high quality paints from Farrow & Ball are sure to brighten up your kitchen.

Sunny Babouche by Farrow & Ball is the ideal choice for kitchen deprived of natural light
Make a statement with vibrant Charlotte's Locks by Farrow & Ball, which takes inspiration from 1950s kitchens
Farrow & Ball's Cook's Blue paint is perfect for wooden cabinetry - and is also said to deter flies!

Farrow & Ball’s bright and sunny Babouche brings cheer to kitchen cabinetry by the bagful, making it particularly perfect for kitchens with limited natural light. Shades of yellow give added sophistication when teamed with elegant grey, so we suggest pairing this paint with Plummett to give this playful colour a grown-up twist.

If you are partial to blue tones, Cook’s Blue is a splendid choice, and is a richer, brighter alternative to powder blue. Cook’s Blue looks excellent on woodwork, such as solid oak kitchen doors, and sits beautifully alongside pale timber surfaces such as our maple worktops.

Our third ‘Colour of the Month’ is striking Charlotte’s Locks. This spicy shade is a fantastic feature colour for wood kitchens, and – inspired by the orange accents of 1950s kitchens – is a fashionable and eye-catching shade that makes a great talking point.
