Juliekcmo, thanks, I like the Glacier Blue too, but darn that is the one blue on my swatch board above that I don't have in real life. I was thinking of buying a sample. The last thing I want is for this to get busy:) I could wait for some things to be installed before the painting. But I wanted the sink base painted in the shop. The other cabinets could wait. What does this sound like?: First Color: I am going to paint the ceiling & trim that same as the upper walls, one of the very light bluish to periwinkle gray colors mentioned above. Second Color: There will be a lot of white with the tile. Third Color: A light tone for the Sink base, dark tone for the tall standing cab that is on the same color card. I am leaning to the Sea Life for the dark, so that means the sink would be Misty Memories. Fourth Color Idea: To paint the 2 other built-in's, (the one at the tub, and to the right of sink) in another light grayish color.

Here is the original backsplash and how the kitchen looked when they bought the house. At the time that was all they were planning on doing - redoing the WIZARD OF OZ green backsplash. But after living in the house a while my friend decided that she has had enough of the ORANGEY PINE cabinets (they aren't cherry). She ordered shaker style doors to paint and is just trying to figure out the color. I had suggested a little darker than the trim color too but lighter than wall as well. The kitchen is only that dark b/c of the time she took the picture. It isn't really that dark in person. Thanks for all the help so far and keep the ideas coming!

Do you know what colors make your heart sing? When I look through the things I have bought and things that I love there are a couple of themes. My closet shows that I own a lot of really clean bright colors that I wear in the summer (coral, lime, fuchsia, lemon yellow) and I also own a lot of purples, teals, deep reds, jeans, some white, cream, black, gray, no tan or brown and more taupe, white and cream than any other neutral. Yes I have a more colorful wardrobe than many. If I look at the things I treasure (art, vases, things) I see that my affinity for purples, reds, teals is obvious. In my home I have slate flooring in my foyer, which is purple/red/green slate (one of the things I fell in love with when I bought the house). When I picked the flooring, tile, paint colors for the rest of the house I worked with the things that I own and the things that I love to select colors. I am still renovating, so I am tweaking things as I go, but here is the picture of color selections with my flooring and art.

Maybe take a look at Bone Black or Thunder for Benjamin Moore colors that might be close to Sunday Stroll. I have Thunder in one bedroom and it was the only gray I could find that didn’t flash any weird undertones just a really lovely soft gray.
