So much easier to paint the walls.

I agree with oaktonmom. So much easier and maybe even cheaper to paint the walls. Less disruption in the kitchen. Painting cabinets is labor- intensive if you wanna do it right, and expensive if you hire it out.

Repaint the walls. No contest.

We painted the walls Edgecomb Gray

Why?

Just what Karen Rose said!

I always think that cabinets are so visually massive that they need a counterbalance.

With white or off-white cabinets, I would put some color on those walls. Sage green, sand, something warm and easy to live with.

Have fun!

BM Grant Beige might look nice with all the other elements in the room.

I'm no expert, I'm having trouble picking colors myself, but I'd agree that it clashes a bit. I'd probably do a soft white on the walls. I'm looking at Edgecomb gray as one of my choices and I didn't realize it was considered a cool color, I thought it was warm. I am not sure how to figure that out besides having a good eye, I guess.

I don't really think it clashes in a terrible way. There is frankly so much clutter that I can't really even "see" the kitchen, which is really very nice. Can you remove the rack thing in the dining area and the clutter on the surfaces? That might possibly allow you to take better stock of the color situation.

Live with this awhile. I learned many years ago that one can mix warm neutrals with colder ones and the affect is actually quite pleasant - far more interesting that a sea of all the same color.

the reason we went with Edgecomb Gray is because i looked at a house, picture above and they used Edgecomb Gray. I felt confident it was a warm beige with a hint of gray. Then I came home to this. Im so confused why the shades are so off but lesson learned!

My Edgecomb Gray doesn’t look like that. It is much more neutral and I have cream cabinets. i wonder if the difference is the kind or amount of light.

Doesn’t look bad at all.
Use the money to put hardware on cabinets.

I actually like it.
