Wall paint color with white cabinets? Need opinions! (Pics)
Comments (33)Thanks for the info! Our test door came with just the cup hole drilled, but it was exactly where I had specified. I talked to Lowell (I hope I have his name right!), and he told me they could do the IKEA pattern, but just send him the template and a digital photo. I'm pretty sure we will go with Advantage. Their pricepoint is the lowest I've found. And I have checked probably 50 different suppliers. I had a line on another company, and their prices jumped from my original estimate, and now I see they don't even put their prices on their site; they want a quote request filled out. They are claiming the "lowest" prices, but I am skeptical. In going with Advantage, do you think I should add another 1/16th to my measurements? I read that they have an allowance of 1/8" either way on their doors, which could be concerning if they are short. Hmmm. Food for thought. I'm looking forward to your full pictoral spread! :^)...See MoreNeed Your Opinions Quickly: Possible Major Purchase (Pics!)
Comments (26)I almost never post in this forum but read it avidly...too avidly I think. In case you decide against that console and look for something new (but spendy) I have an idea for you. I think it would be great with your rustic look. LOVE your home. Not sure how to embed a pic from an online catalog here, so I'll give you the link. I have the primitive demilune and it is beautiful and well made. There is a pretty cherry cabinet too. Here is a link that might be useful: sundance catalog...See MoreHelp!

Comments (13)normally I say wait and paint till you've lived in a place awhile BUT this place is an exception to that. I'd paint all the walls and ceilings in the interior the same color except the kitchen. I'd leave that till after I got everything else painted, live with it for a bit and then reevaluate at that time. There are certain interiors that need one color used thru out. This may very well be one of them. HOWEVER depending on the color you choose that green in the kitchen might be okay as the one room you do different. The color you place on the other walls and on the ceiling is going to change how that kitchen color looks which is why I'd do all the rest of it first. Live with it a bit and then decide if the kitchen needs to be painted too....See MoreNeed Design Opinions -How much is too much sparkle??? Pics
Comments (43)I agree with Sue b, I really like the accent tile idea. I had a similar problem, took almost a year to decide. If one more person suggested white subway I was going to scream, just because it was essentially what I had just torn down! I got the same MOP sample as you have, (among others), but ended up with a linear stone backsplash to balance out my "blingy" granite. It provided the calming, organic balance I needed- it makes me happy! Hang in there, you will find what you are looking for!...See MoreElle
