Kitchen Cabinet Painting in Lexington, SC

White Elephant Painting recently completed a kitchen cabinet painting project in Lexington, SC. The cabinets were made from knotty pine, and the homeowner wanted a modern two-tone look. We painted the upper half of the cabinets white and the bottom half black, creating a clean, contemporary contrast that updates the entire kitchen.

The work focused specifically on the cabinet surfaces. Because the wood was knotty pine, the natural grain and knots were a prominent feature before painting. The decision to go two-tone was driven by the homeowner’s desire for a modern appearance, with white on top to keep the space feeling bright and black on the bottom to add depth and visual grounding.

For this project we used the Sherwin Williams Gallery Series system. That product line is designed for cabinet and trim applications and was chosen to deliver a professional finish appropriate for kitchen cabinetry. Using a purpose-built system ensured the paint adhered uniformly to the knotty pine and provided the consistent color coverage needed for a two-tone design.

The result is a balanced, modern kitchen cabinet look. The white upper cabinets reflect light and help maintain an open feel, while the black lower cabinets provide contrast and hide lower-level wear more effectively than a lighter color would. Together the two colors update the room without changing the existing cabinet layout or hardware.

White Elephant Painting completed the work in Lexington, SC with attention to matching the homeowner’s modern design intent. The project kept the original wood cabinets in place while giving them a new appearance, which can be a cost-effective alternative to full replacement. The two-tone scheme works well in kitchens where homeowners want a contemporary look without a complete remodel.
