To stain or paint cabinets? Making it all work together.

6 years ago
I have shaker style cabinets. I’m thinking of stain because you can’t paint and then go back to stainI, but you can always paint over stain. Right? We will have a Calcutta quartzite counter top and eating bar. The flooring is an oak looking vinyl. The living room has a gas fireplace(covered up in picture), and tv will be over mantel. To the right will be a black baby grand piano. I just purchased to long java sofas and I have two oatmeal linen chairs. The dining area will have a Iong dark stained table with black leather chairs and matching barstools at bar. Dining has black farmhouse chandelier with candle bulb lighting. We haven’t decided on fireplace but we want a sitting hearth. I’m thinking less is more. I like the idea of marble, tile or simple stone and with cedar beam. And wall color I’m leaning khaki , or white.
