White or Stained Wood Cabinets for Small Galley Kitchen??
Comments (27)tking, yes I have been very happy with the IKEA cabinets and drawers. I have been living with my remodel for a year and a half now and have zero complaints. I just wish I would have done it sooner. I lived with the awful "before" kitchen for 15 years! My kitchen is still very small. Adding the 12" deep pantries and drawers behind my dining area has really made it seem much larger. I also added cabinets below the breakfast bar area. My walls didn't move, but my storage almost doubled. I have "always" been drawn to white kitchens myself. Online, in magazines, & in model homes, white wins hands down for me! I find it much easier to keep clean. See a spot... wipe it up. My old cabinets hid spills too well. Good luck to you in whatever YOU decide!...See MoreWhat cabinet wood species with medium-stained red oak floors?
Comments (6)We are installing a QS red oak floor and QS white oak cabinets. I guess we are doing the opposite of what you are proposing... The floors will just be sealed with no stain and the cabinets will have Miniwax red oak stain. We wanted the wood to complement each other but definitely be distinct so they didn't "blend into" each other....See MoreCreamy white cabs, stained island, stained wood floors?
Comments (11)Oh, the floor stain. I about had a nervous breakdown last weekend selecting the floor stain. We finally choose Fruitwood (minwax) and I can't say I'm 100% sold yet. Everyone besides me thinks it's perfect. Anyway, my cabinets are white with a glaze that makes them creamy, and the island is maple with a stain and a glaze on it. Here's a pic with several stain samples. The ones shown are (L to R) golden oak, fruitwood, early american and the one across the bottom is provencial. The one I selected definitely looks best with the island - I just love dark wood. Wish I'd have selected Provencial. All are minwax stains. I took some pics since the floors were stained this week, but they aren't in photobucket yet. Will try to post tonight. Also, there was a similar question a couple of days ago. I have pics of my last house with the same setup - white perimeter, stained island and wood floors. The link to that thread is below. Here is a link that might be useful: Other thread...See MoreTaupe kitchen cabinets and red oak floor. Help choose floor stain!
