Embracing English Country Style
All in all, there is something enchanting about English country style that is considered classic, comfortable, and quite playful. If you are interested in knowing the source of inspiration, watch the first video of this series. Today, the discussion of figures will be limited to outlining the main processes of turning a regular kitchen into a cozy ray of the English countryside.
The Magic of Two-Tone Kitchen Cabinets
I like it when the color of kitchenettes’ cabinets is divided into two different colors. As I was choosing colors, I consciously felt like I was being pulled towards this ‘tuxedo’ look. There are many other options like neutral and cream, blue and white but since, I am a green lover I painted our kitchen in earthy sage green and kept the cabinets in classic white. We should also pay especial attention to two-tone cabinets which are not just the trend of the present days but the elegant accents in country kitchen arrangements.
But it is not mere beauty that seems to call for Laurel roles. The bottom ones are painted the earthy “Pesto Paste” green from Behr, while the upper ones resplendent in the “Ivory Lace” white from Sherwin Williams brought depth, vibrancy, and spaciousness into our kitchen. The dark color of the lower cabinets contributes to the calming of the eye and they can also disguise marks and dirt better as compared to the light color of the upper cabinets that opens up the space and adds light.
The Journey of Our Cabinet Transformation Our kitchen had a distinct 1960s feel with honey-oak cabinets. While functional, they lacked personal touch and warmth. Inspired by English country kitchens, I started with what I loved—the paint color. Matt, equipped with a sprayer and our chosen shades, began the transformation. The “Pesto Paste” green brought warmth and character, while the “Ivory Lace” added brightness and openness.
Enhancing with Hardware and Appliances.
Both my green and white cabinets used to gleam, but it was easy to tell that the hardware couldn’t stay that way forever. Similar to selecting the accessories when dressing up, selecting the right type of hardware can truly enhance the appearance. This design was conceived as an English kitchen; therefore, antiqued brass was selected for the hardware. The knobs procured from Lowe’s and the handmade cup pulls bought from Etsy were the best and provided the desired warmth and character.
For our original black electric stove, which was rather serviceable, we were now too conspicuous when compared with the new cabinets. Getting back to food, as we use gas for cooking, we looked for a white gas stove on Marketplace, which fit greatly with the new cabinets and made our cooking more enjoyable.
Window Dressing and Lighting
The last focus was on the window situated above the sink after the transformation of the cabinets. The old lace blind required replacement/renewal. To source these products, we decided to go with bamboo blinds that were cut to perfectly fit the windows as this gave more character to the room and gave a more English country feel.
This last feature is one of the most important in a kitchen layout: lighting. Finally, after utmost searching for weeks, we bought a pendulum light that matches with the two-tone cabinet color and which glows warm light. The scalloped edges of the milk-glass matched that of our cabinetry trims to give it the right finishing touch.

Choosing the Right Shades: When choosing green and white shades, that is, when choosing blinds, pay attention to the lighting in the kitchen. Lighting seen with natural light could seem different when seen with artificial lighting mainly due to the differences in color. Blow water on your painted cabinet and then walk around your house, over to the other area and then come back so that you can see how they look. Balancing the Colors: For the lower cabinets, paint them green so as to take time and space off their look while the upper cabinets are painted white to make the diner spacious. The darker green provide a anchors to the space, while the white expands it, so the kitchen appears more spacious and airy. Complementary Decor: Introduce aggressive colors such as brown, and beige to complement the natural materials like wood and stones that are characteristically English country. Holly wooden used in countertop or stone used in backsplash can give warmth and texture to the kitchen. Versatile Design: Green and white kitchen designs are beautiful especially when the cabinets are being used in the kitchen as they can fit in a traditional or a contemporary kitchen design. They afford the freedom of modifications where one may change accessories and decoration of the house without renovating. Sustainability: Use paints that are environment friendly which have negligible or no amount of VOCs included in their formulation. This is healthier for you and the planet too. |

It is recommended to wipe the cabinets with a mild detergent and soft cloth frequently to remove grime. Everyone should then cover any chip or scratch that was observed and paint it with the appropriate color. Place coasters on any part that is prone to getting stained and protect it from heat, also use mats in places that are slippery.
Conclusion
And here we are friends, to the finality of this portion of the adventure! Translating the kitchen that, for decades, represented the American suburbia, into traditional English countryside. As to the next step, it is expected that it will take further steps in clearing the vision of the association.
In the subsequent phases, additional constructions include the putting up of counter-top, accent tiles, backsplash, farmhouse-sink, and beautiful faucet. It is with a sigh that Matt and I are content with this phase and our somewhat operating kitchen. I hope you enjoyed this trip with us. It is not some obscene number or some beautiful kitchen that you have always wanted but what you have is vision, you have creativity and of course a bit of sweat.
