Kitchens are one of the most lively places in your house, so be sure to make it comfortable and stylish – you and your guests will most likely spend lots of time there! We’ve shown you some great examples of painted cabinets, but today we want to focus on the infamous kitchen island.

Kitchen islands have become a staple in most updated and modern kitchens.

They are a great place to prepare food, congregate with guests and family, and they provide a space to casually dine.

Have fun with your kitchen island! Don’t be afraid to experiment with color in this area.

We love the matching tile/backsplash and island paired with white cabinets and countertops – so simple and chic.

Do you have a kitchen island? What color do you want to paint it?
