Wait. Kitchen paint colors beyond white on this blog? Yes! But I may slip in a few neutrals just to cleanse the palate now and again. 🙂 Specifically, we’ll explore paint in the green, blue-gray, and blue color range in a variety of gorgeous country kitchens sure to inspire.

Why does this kitchen above feel so revolutionary? A mirrored pantry or china cabinet painted in a contrasting shade? Yes, please! So keep this idea in mind as you’re browsing paint colors. Maybe paint a vintage cupboard, cart, or table in a favorite to energize your own kitchen.

F&B Lulworth Blue
Omg, this is a happy color.
Are you dying? Loving how the more rugged work table and unexpected oversized pendants work with this boldly painted blue kitchen:

Benjamin Moore Light Breeze
Think neutral colors can’t play a role in a space with personality plus?
Ahem…
![Rustic yet elegant kitchen with cabinets painted BM Light Breeze and checkered wood floor (photo by Haris Kenjar). #benjaminmoorelightbreeze](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-light-breeze-on-cabinets-haris-kenjar-photo-landed-interiors-and-homes-kitchen-checkered-floor.jpg)
Isn’t it energetic yet cozy and chic and whimsical too?
Benjamin Moore Blue Daisy 2062-40
What happens when a happy teal blue meets a sophisticated grey wallpaper and warm brass hardware?
No need to wonder!
![Holly Williams' beautiful blue Tennessee kitchen with blue cabinets and grey scenic wallpaper - photo by Annie Schlecter. #bluekitchens #modernfarmhouse](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-blue-daisy-annie-schlecter-holly-williams-blue-kitchen.jpg)
Psst. When I popped into Holly Williams’ shop in Franklin a couple visits ago, I was hoping I might catch a glimpse of her, and there she was!
BM Louisburg Green HC-113
So many folks have been warming up to the idea of a green kitchen in recent years, and here’s a muddy one to consider:
This is one of those colors I love to wear–it feels so neutral for clothing, and it’s straight from nature, so why not?
![James Farmer designed green kitchen (cabinets are BM Louisburg Green) with country charm (photo: Jeff Herr). #countrykitchens #greenkitchens #louisburggreen](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-louisburg-green-jeff-herr-photo-james-farmer-green-kitchen-cabinets.jpg)
BM French Toile
Blue-greys are tricky to get right, right?
Typically if you’re after the perfect blue, it’s wise to limit your search to the grey swatches. But there are plenty of exceptions, and the key is trying a sample in YOUR space.
![Rustic country blue kitchen (cabinets painted BM French Toile) designed by Hadley Wiggins (photo by David A. Land). #bluekitchens #rustickitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-blue-toile-cabinets-color-kitchen-david-a-land-photo-hadley-wiggins.jpg)
Mohegan Sage 2138-30
Here’s a deep, moody tone when you’re after a vibe.
It feels smoky, handsome, and sophisticated, yet it seems to be right at home in a country setting with beadboard:
![Beautiful green kitchen with fir beadboard backsplash (BM Mogegan Sage). Photo by Bjorn Wallander. #greenkitchens #rustickitchen #mohegansage](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-mohegan-sage-green-kitchen-bjorn-wallander-photo-countrylivingmag.jpg)
Farrow & Ball Arsenic
Bold flooring in the kitchen gets a lot of attention on social media, and sometimes I wonder if regular folks are following suit. Would you could you paint your floors a bold green?
I can imagine how this hue could lift spirits when skies are grey like they were today here!
![Farrow & Ball Arsenic painted wood floor in country kitchen by Lauren Northrup (photo: Brie Williams). #greenpaintcolors #farrowandballarsenic](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/farrow-ball-arsenic-green-floor-paint-kitchen-lauren-northrup-brie-williams-photo.jpg)
Not unlike a spring meadow underfoot through the seasons.
Benjamin Moore Philipsburg Blue
I admire how this particular blue was paired with wood cabinets (without the doors) in the design below.
It’s an unusual and pleasing combination that feels cozy as well as cool.
![Beautiful country kitchen with blue cabinets (BM Phillipsburg Blue). Photo by Josh Grubbs. #bluekitchens #benjaminmoorephillipsburgblue](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-philipsburg-blue-kitchen-cabinets-josh-grubbs-photo-countrylivingmag.jpg)
Coastal Plain
There’s a timelessness about this green that strikes all the right chords in the kitchen below.
While the swatch above appears darker, it’s a great example of how natural light washes out color and affects undertones.
![Green kitchen (paint color is Coastal Plan by HGTV Home for SW). Photo: Miki Duisterhof. #coastalplain #greenkitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/coastal-plain-hgtvhomeforsherwinwililams-paint-color-green-kichen.jpg)
And the black accents! Speaking of black…let’s pause for another neutral.
Farrow & Ball Pitch Black
We’re seeing many more black country kitchens these days. I feel like it was reserved for urban or industrial kitchens, yet it feels so European country and traditional when paired with the right design elements.
With gold-toned lighting…WOW!
![Farrow & Ball Pitch Black kitchen cabinets in a farmhouse by Bailey McCarthy - photo by Roger Davies. #farrowandballpitchblack #blackkitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/farrow-ball-pitch-black-kitchen-cabinets-bailey-mccarthy-roger-davies-photo.jpg)

It’s common to see kitchen islands painted black, and here’s another design from Holly Williams:
![Black kitchen with red brick fireplace in a 1908 Nashville home by Holly Williams (photo: Paul Costello). #blackkitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/holly-williams-1908-nashville-cottage-black-kitchen-vintage-brick-paulcostellophoto.jpg)

Blue Ground No. 210
To draw the eye up, a blue ceiling suggestive of clear skies is a heavenly possibility in the right kitchen.
Look at those beams, and that lantern!
![F&B Blue Ground painted ceiling in a lovely cottage kitchen by Madcap Cottage (photo by Max Kim-Bee). #blueceilings #farrowandballblueground](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/farrow-ball-blue-ground-max-kim-bee-madcap-cottage-blue-ceiling-kitchen-color.jpg)
Does Blue Ground bring to mind Farrow & Ball’s Light Blue which played a starring role in my favorite blue kitchen from 2017:
![Traditional blue kitchen from 2017 Southeastern Designer Showhouse - white marble counters, burnished brass range hood, and exquisite arched window with farm sink.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/blue-kitchen-farrow-ball-southeastern-designer-showhouse-2017.jpg)
![Silvery Blue Kitchen Get the Look on Hello Lovely Studio. #bluekitchens #getthelook #kitchendesign](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/001-silvery-blue-kitchen-get-the-look-hello-lovely-studio-banner.jpg)
Farrow & Ball Elephants Breath
Here’s another hard to describe neutral from Farrow & Ball. Don’t you love those understated, complex, sophisticated colors that refuse to be pinned down?
It feels Parisian to me and so elegant with gold:
![Elephant's Breath paint color on kitchen cabinets - Heidi Caillier's Phinney Ridge craftsman project. #elephantsbreath](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/farrow-ball-elephants-breath-phinney-ridge-craftsman-kitchen-cabinets-heidi-caillier.jpg)
The color reminds me a little of this one in case you are seeking more neutrals to sample:
![Benjamin Moore Smoke and Mirrors, CSP-105 paint color swatch.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-smoke-and-mirrors-paint-color-swatch.jpg)
BEHR Opera Glasses
English country kitchens are some of the loveliest, and what drama when a color like this is used for cabinets AND backsplash:
![Rustic dark blue English country kitchen by Plain English. Similar paint color is Behr Opera Glasses. #bluekitchens #englishcountry](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/behr-opera-glasses-blue-kitchen-cabinets-plain-english.jpg)
White Dove
Is this maybe the most used white in kitchens of all? There’s a good reason it’s so!
Just a gorgeous white that feels timeless and clean.
![BM White Dove kitchen cabinets and walls in a lovely country design - photo by Lincoln Barbour. #bmwhitedove #whitecountrykitchen](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-white-dove-kitchen-lincoln-barbour-photo-countrylivingmag.jpg)
Stormy Monday
I love how Martha Stewart used Stormy Monday.
If you read anywhere that grey interiors are over and should be avoided, look away! Greys are timeless and natural and can be just the right backdrop for a rich, sophisticated look.
![Beautiful Martha Stewart grey kitchen painted BM Stormy Monday - photo by Annie Schlechter. #bmstormymonday #marthastewartkitchen](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-stormy-monday-gray-paint-color-kitchen-martha-stewart-annie-schlecter-photo.jpg)
BM Night Train 1567
There are great paint color names, and then there’s NIGHT TRAIN.
Right? Don’t you love how it is paired with all this sweetness?
![Night Train (Benjamin Moore) painted blue cabinets in a kitchen by Christina Salway (photo by Tara Donne). #benjaminmoorenighttrain #bluekitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-night-train-painted-cabinets-tara-donne-photo-christina-salway-blue-kitchen.jpg)
BM Varsity Blues 756
What if you’re feelin’ saucy?
I mean, I can think of plenty of worn out, forlorn kitchens that might be energized or resurrected with buckets of color.
![Varsity Blues (Benjamin Moore) painted cabinets, walls, and trim in a bold blue kitchen (photo by Miki Duisterhof). #bluekitchens #benjaminmoorevarsityblues](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/miki-duisterhof-photo-varsity-blues-benjamin-moore-blue-cabinets-kitchen-countrylivingmag.jpg)
Paddington Blue
Here’s a different sort of bold blue that appears to be best friends with white.
![Paddington Blue (Benjamin Moore) painted kitchen cabinets - design by Grace Mitchell and photo by Lisa Petrole. #bluekitchens #bmpaddingtonblue](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-paddington-blue-lisa-petrole-photo-grace-mitchell-blue-kitchen.jpg)
Oil Cloth
Wait until you see how this color interacts with terracotta.
Ready or not!
![Green kitchen cabinets in a lovely design by Heidi Caillier (photo by Haris Kenjar). Color is BM Oil Cloth. #benjaminmooreoilcloth #greenkitchens](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/benjamin-moore-oil-cloth-green-kitchen-cabinets-heidi-caillier-haris-kenjar-photo.jpg)
Are you dazzled too?
Mint Chocolate Chip + Hancock Green
If an appetizing green is on the menu…
you could try the formula created for this kitchen: 1 part Mint Chocolate Chip plus 2 parts Hancock Green:
![Country kitchen with minty green cabinets (combo of one part BM Mint Chocolate Chip and 2 parts Hancock Green).
