I'm also thinking about painting part of it a light green, maybe a sage color. If you were painting the cabinet, which part(s) would you paint? The doors around the recessed panels? What do you guys think?
Do you want it to be predominantly green or white? If white w/green touches, I'd paint the border of the doors green, the top, and maybe those little bumps on the sides.
in the 3rd picture on the amazon page someone painted the recessed parts of the door blue-green and the rest is white. If that's too much green, then I would do all white but paint the raised parts of the doors green.
Interesting that you mention pale yellow, since I painted the large wall in my kitchen pale yellow, lol. So I was thinking that adding a different but complimentary color to this cabinet would be nice.
