White Cabinets with White Countertops?
Hello, wonderful GWers,
Of all the funny things, DH is now totally in love with the white cabinet/espresso island look. (Despite throwing hissy fits early in the planning process about how much he HATES white cabinets. Yes. He actually typed "HATES" in all capital letters when we were emailing about the kitchen design). In any event, I am delighted by this development and am going to run with it. So now the question becomes, what countertop?
I love love love the look of white carrera marble on white cabinets, but DH wants to go with something more bulletproof. So, OK. Does anyone have or have photos of white cabinets with white countertops other than marble? White quartz, maybe? I would love to see them, thanks!
But just to drool over marble a little....

Mount light at 45 degree angle in skylight
Comments (0)I am looking for help and advice regarding how to mount a light at a 45 degree angle. We have a skylight above our kitchen prep island and would like to mount a light up here to light our prep area. Unfortunately, with white cabinets and white countertops, there's a lot of white already. We've tried two LED solutions (Philips Lederno 2-light and 3 light directional spotlights) but found they did not dim sufficiently (even with uber expensive ELV dimmer as spec'd). In proximity of the same area, we have the Varaluz Fascination light over our breakfast table (love it). We have just received the Varaluz 2 light bathroom sconce and would like to mount it at a 45 degree angle, so that the lights do not shine directly into the eyes of the prep area staff. The fixture will be mounted approximately 6' above the island countertop. Any suggestions on how to do this would be very much appreciate; DH is most handly. Here's the light held up at the normal mounting angle (against different wall): Here it is held at the desired 45 degree angle (though not at height at which it would be mounted): And here is a closeup of the backside of the light - please ignore wine glass to the left, added only for help in determining scale :) Looking for advice on how to mount the light at a 45% angle above the prep area. Any ideas, suggestions, recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!...See MoreNeed ideas for Kitchen Backsplash
Comments (6)I'm with Rosie--find something decorative to hang over the tiles. They only cover a small area. TJ Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods are great places for unusual decorative plates, molds, platters, painted signs, ironwork, etc. They also sell decals that fit over 4 x 4 tiles--Wallies? Maybe you can find some that better fit your style. If you're only planning on being there a few years, save yourself the expense of changing it permanently....See MoreBacksplash with White Cabinets/White Granite countertops
Comments (2)This is what we are in the middle of doing and we are going to do subway tile backsplash (happening right now actually). the top isn't complete white like you suggest but it was the best we could find that didn't have all that red. We have a blue island and didn't really want the americana kitchen with red white and blue...See MoreJust completed kitchen with unexpected color... pink!
Comments (0)Our client wanted a pink backsplash, so we balanced it out with two-tone gray and white cabinetry, and white countertops. The project folder is on our profile, and here is the blog link - Not Your Grandmother's Pink Kitchen It was fun to work with a cheerful color, and it definitely suits the family's style since they have 3 young daughters. Let us know what you think!...See Morerookie_2010

13 years agoI too adore white kitchens!
i'm going with this stone for my white kitchen. it's white vermont/super white grantie shown in polished finish. i am having it honed which will give it an even lighter, whiter feel. very similar look to carerra, imo.

13 years agoHmmmm..... Cesarstone, huh? Tell me more of this...Cesarstone?? ;)
I wonder how it compares in price to granite? The website claims that it's much tougher and easier to use than granite but I wonder if that's really true.
This photo just sings to me... The lovely painted cabinets and the white cesarstone with that fab EDGE!!!! Yummmmmy!
