If you’re painting your kitchen cabinets to fit your farmhouse vision, consider light, muted colors that create a fresh and airy atmosphere. Soft whites are timeless options that give off a clean look in a farmhouse kitchen. Warm grays can add depth and sophistication to farmhouse cabinets while still maintaining a neutral tone. Subtle greens can evoke a sense of nature in the space, pairing well with dark woods and fresh-cut flowers.

First, start with any planned structural changes. That includes demolition and installing new gas lines, piping, or lighting. From there, complete any projects that require a lot of construction to install. Paint your walls while the space is mostly empty, install the cabinets before the countertops to ensure the former doesn’t get damaged, and save all cosmetic changes (like installing new light fixtures or hardware) for the very last moment.

Most professionally-manufactured outdoor cabinets are already weatherproof. Perform regular maintenance and cover your cabinets in the winter to provide even more protection. Wood cabinets are the most vulnerable to damage from weather, but you can prevent damage by applying a sealant or varnish. Reapply as needed based on recommendations for the type of wood and level of wear.
