3. Beige Shaker Cabinets with a Forest Green Island
If you love the idea of a two-tone kitchen, start with a solid beige foundation and use forest green as your “accent” color on the island. Forest green is bold and dramatic, providing a striking contrast to the neutral beige surrounding it. This setup is perfect for large kitchens where you want the island to act as the room’s main focal point.
How to Make
Paint your perimeter shaker cabinets a light, warm beige. Choose a rich, dark forest green for your island cabinetry. To tie it together, top the island with a butcher-block countertop, and top the perimeter cabinets with a crisp, white marble. This mix of warm and cool tones creates a perfectly balanced, custom-designed feel.
Things Needed
- Warm beige paint for perimeter cabinets
- Deep forest green paint for the island
- Butcher-block countertop for the island
- Marble countertops for perimeter
- Polished nickel lighting fixtures
