History shows us that most people prefer to have a white or a silver kitchen sink.  Once in a while a homeowner will choose to install a kitchen sink that is another color (like red or blue or green) but painting kitchen sinks black is still rare.  Black sinks,More on Black Red and Country Sinks too! Articles however rare they may be, can add a nice touch of class and style to the room that many people do not put much thought into.  Some people choose to bridge the gap between a traditional kitchen and a modern kitchen by purchasing an older, country sink for their kitchen and then painting it a glossy black.  Once the beauty of the black kitchen sink is seen for the first time it isn't long before the homeowner is painting other fixtures besides the kitchen sinks black.  After the kitchen is finished, these same homeowners will often paint their bathroom sinks black as well!The country sink is known for its old fashioned charm.  Sometimes a homeowner will decide to buy a country sink (also known as a farm sink) because he or she will want to infuse the house's kitchen with a traditional farm kitchen feel.  The country sink consists of a single large basin that is the size of the "regular" double basined sink in terms of width but is often quite a few inches deeper.  Because the country sink is so deep, it is usually installed quite a bit lower than a "regular" sink would be installed.Typically, a country sink remains unpainted or is painted white.  This does not mean that your country sink is required to be painted white.  Homeowners are free to choose whichever color they want for their sink colors.  Some will quickly paint their kitchen sinks black while others take a while to decide upon the perfect color.  The nice thing about choosing to paint your kitchen sinks black is that doing so allows you to keep the classic touches and include some modern accents as well.  Black is a practical color for many things.  Why?  Because it helps to conceal flaws.  Painting your kitchen sinks black offers you some wonderful benefits that other colors will not offer you.  Black is a great color for hiding dirt and stains (both of which stand out quite plainly on a silver or white painted kitchen sink).  When you choose a glossy black paint, the shine from the gloss will make your country sink look clean no matter what its actual condition might be.  What's more, black does not soak up stains the way other colors do.  When it comes time to choose a color for your kitchen sinks black is an excellent option.  Red and green are also great choices, but nothing will help you give your country sink the sleek and modern aura that you will get when you choose to paint your kitchen sinks black.
