Mission kitchen set table chairs cabinet in CT?
Comments (0)Morning, I'm in CT and looking for a smaller mission style kitchen table, chairs and matching cabinet. Table size could be around 36" x 54" or smaller. I was up at Old farems Furniture on rte 44 in East Canaan and saw something I would like but I still would like to look around. Have any of you seen anything like this? Thanks, Richie...See MoreKitchen remodel-table/chairs/stools color scheme Retry questions
Comments (9)Okay, I am going to be harsh, people on GW who know me, know I am never harsh, I avoid when I do not like something or I avoid having to say anything. But I know you have posted twice. Forgive me in advance. It's Blah. You need a direction. You need color. You need not worry that mixing woods is not going to work. It will be fine. But you need more color, more excitement, more energy and more of YOU. What colors do you love? I am thrilled you are thinking of a granite with some color. This is great! You asked ".....is it going to look like a mishmash of colors with white, black and stainless steel appliances?...." Yes, it could because you need a direction. But you can find the direction and style. You can do this. Be brave! You asked... "...........table will go with the oak cabinets? Will the one we picked out tentatively work...... Can I go darker on the kitchen table without clashing with cabinets?.." YES! Yes to all your questions. The table can work, going dark is okay. I prefer sticking to your similar wood cabinet color but since you need a bit of drama going a bit darker is going to be fine. But before we even consider the table lets find out what else is going on with your space. Lets look at what you have chosen. Oak, gray floor, Black island, White Refrig. These are not really a main color. All Neutrals. What color do you like? What colors are in the rest of your home? Not sure what you like? Take a walk into your closet. Look for your favorite top, dress, scarf... Look around your house is there a painting, a pillow, a curtain that you love and want to keep. Use this as a guide to decorating the rest of the space. The black, white and oak are neutrals. You need to bring in some spice to the space. Have you visited Finished Kitchens Blog? I urge you to take a look at what others have done with oak. And have you done the Sweeby test? Check out the link this is a great resource to discovering what you want. After you have come up with a theme and a color direction. I don't mean neutrals I mean your favorite color you want to accent. Lets reconvene and talk about how to make this work to be spectacular. YOu can do this. ~boxer...See Morewhat round kitchen table and chairs ?
Comments (8)I would not choose a wood top. You have so much brown already - the floors, cabinets, the paneling around your kitchen window. OMG no more brown. I know you want to replace the glass (you don't say why), but it beautifully reflects the greenery in your yard, and is a light look for the space that you have. If you must, I would replace with white table to brighten and lighten. Here is a pic of the Serena & Lily Downing 60" round table. It costs about $2,000, but there are imitations available that cost less....See MoreNew kitchen table and chairs
