Do you want to see the cherry kitchen in the house we recently bought, before I painted the cabinets white? hahaha You should NOT partner cherry cabinets with the flooring, countertop or backsplash the previous owners installed so I will spare you the visual of rust brown quartz with blue and white flecks.

Cherry cabinets, natural maple floors, soapstone counters:

Natural cherry cabinets, white oak floors, Blue in the Night antiqued granite.

You should be able to find lots of examples doing a google search using the words natural cherry and gardenweb. In the meantime here are a few pictures of mine.

The floors are natural ash. The countertops are verde peacock granite.

My cabinets are natural cherry. They've darkened since this photo. The counter is Pentalquartz Botticino. I used quartz because I wanted a touch of contemporary and a light color to brighten the kitchen. The floor is porcelain tile. Some day I'll have a backsplash.

This isn't a kitchen, it's our MBR dresser, but for color it may be helpful. The wood is natural cherry and the floor is bamboo. The top is a granite remnant that DH absolutely fell in love with. Kitchen base cabs make great dressers.

Thanks all!

We'll be starting totally from scratch--new build. I'm leaning towards tile floors rather than wood (even though they're all the rage right now.

I might be thinking about a white kitchen--but DH is adamant they be stained. And I'm not dreaming of a white kitchen so wood it is!

Wood is great. Just be careful on your light in the kitchen - nice and bright without being blinding. South facing would be nice. Some white kitchens are white because otherwise they'd be black holes.
