White Kitchens

White is a great choice for kitchen cabinets. It reflects light and brightens up the space. If your feeling bold, paint your cabinets white. It will make any small space seem much larger!

I just love the open shelf idea, and have been seeing it around quite a bit..., hopefully it's becoming more and more popular!

Me too! I just wonder if I could keep it looking nice and not messy!!

I love white kitchens with open shelving! Its not not hard to keep them organized and clean - put only the things that you use daily or weekly on them. Than ensures that the open shelving items are used and don't get dusty.

I love the idea in theory but it's not practical for me. Our place is open and very airy (tropical). This means it gets dusty fast. The metal shelves would rust here in no time.
I have open shelves near the stove. I'm constantly trying to keep the grime off those shelves and their contents.

I too love the open shelf look. Trying to incorporate it into a kitchen remodel right now....but I get nervous about the commitment.

I LOVE my white kitchen, it feels fresh and airy and any colour goes with it. We also have open shelving on one wall and I really like how it keeps the kitchen feeling spacious.

I love white kitchens. Visually I love open shelves, I just worry about more to dust!

I love the first one a lot! But being a kitchen, I wonder how to make it looks white and neat all the time.

Love white kitchen, it's perfect for little space.
I don't really like open shelves...because of dust!

I'm in love with white kitchens. Mine is off-white which will have to do until the next house. I just posted pictures on my blog of our new backsplash.

my husband renovated our kitchen by adding beadboard to the walls and cabinet faces and painting everything white. He was originally against painting ANY woodwork, but we love it.
Great blog. Keep up the fabulous syle :)
