Need help with choosing a granite color
Comments (1)My cabinets are Chestnut and I love my Colonial Gold granite! I think that would look nice with your colors also....See MoreNeed help choosing granite for sage cabinets
Comments (1)I think it really depends on the actual slab you pick out. The TB would look stunning, but not in one that is really pink/red. I have seen some slabs that are fairly subduded and more grays/with some rust. I think that would look great. However, the ones that read more orange and pink I think would be too much.

Comments (37)Your floor choice is really nice, very neutral. No, my hardwood floor does not have a cherry tone to it. It really is more like a deep brown. it's by Shaw and is called Hazelnut. Even though my island and peninsula is made from cherry the color is called "saddle" and it's also in the brown family color. It's alittle lighter than the floor. I was really torn between using a tile like yours our going with hardwood. But, I went with the hardwood because it blended with the rest of the house better. So far, you have done a great job with your choices - go w/your gut. If you love that Mascarello which I think the tones go very nice with your cabs & floor - go for it......See MoreNeed help choosing island and counter colors!
Comments (17)Okay For whatever reason, you're afraid to stand back and get a shot of the entire kitchen from several angles. Thus all advice is based on what we can see. Not much : ) Cherry is quite red, so I'd avoid a navy island. White will shout against the cherry cabinetry too. We can't SEE the island. That would make me say a warm gray could look pretty, a deep green could. What is the style in your family room. What are the colors? I'm sure there is an adjacency. I'd change the tops, do a quartz, even a quartzite such as Taj Mahal could be pretty. But you want to consider ALL these elements together. Lights, counter, tops, etc. I would keep ALL the tops the same, island and perimeter to whatever you select. A color on island cabinetry change is more than enough. To say the least, before ANY change, make certain the layout is one you like. That includes appliances, and their placement. The island size and ITS placement. ......never throw money at the wrong change : )...See More- 10 years ago
