Updating Interior Paint and Cabinet Refinishing for the Holidays

With the holidays fast approaching, there’s no better time to start thinking about how you can update your home. One of the best ways to change up the look of your space is by looking at interior paint and cabinet refinishing.


It won’t take much time to do but will leave a lasting impression on visitors over the holidays!

Interior Painting Ideas and Colors:

A fresh coat of paint can make a world of a difference in your interior design. If you haven’t updated your wall paint in a while, it might be time to do so. Many of us get busy and forget to add a new coat of paint for decades! Interior painters can help you find the perfect color to match the aesthetic you’re going for, bringing all of your ideas to life.

When choosing a color for yourself, remember to go for a color that will compliment your daily decor, rather than looking for something that will only work during the holiday season. Always choose your paint color before looking for new holiday decorations so you won’t be tempted to paint your house to match the decorations. Here are a few color ideas to consider:

● Creamy neutrals – Neutrals are a great place to start when you’re not sure how to start incorporating color. Taupes or light silver/greys will add a spark to your space without having to worry about it being too loud.
● Reds and greens – Although red and green are typically associated with the holidays, they can look beautiful throughout the year as well. Opt for a sage green or burnt umber for a subtle but classic look!
● Warm shades – You can never go wrong with a warm shade of yellow or beige. They often complement holiday decorations and will look great in the spring or summer months.

The change doesn’t need to be big. It can be as simple as an accent wall. Or if you’re not ready to jump into a new color, a fresh new coat of paint will help create the blank canvas you need to start decorating for the holidays.

Head to Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams to find the perfect color!

Cabinet Refinishing:

The kitchen is the soul of the home, especially during the holidays. It’s easy to spice up your kitchen with cabinet painting. Instead of going through the tedious process of getting brand new cabinets, you can always work with what you currently have!

Update your cabinets with a fresh coat of paint or select a new color for a different aesthetic. We love this mix and match of green and white cabinets that will look beautiful during the holidays and will continue to turn heads throughout the rest of the year. It takes a fraction of the time to update your current cabinets and you’ll be able to save a lot of money when it comes to updating your interior paint and cabinet refinishing.

Redefine Your Space With Moldings and Trim:

For an even more polished look, you should consider new moldings and/or trim. While the colors of your walls and cabinets will help you achieve a great look, it’s all in the details. Accentuate your decorations by stringing them along the moldings or trim, drawing attention to different parts of your space.

If you’re not sure where to start, there are three types of trim. There’s a mopboard that is perfect for a contemporary look, a two-piece that works well in any style of home and profiled trims, which are most often used in a traditional styled home.

Moldings on the other hand are either solid wood, finger joint or medium density fiberboard (MDF). Each of these types of moldings can be customized to suit your specific needs and help you achieve the perfect holiday look!
