farmhousebound: Thanks for your message. I'll try posting a photo, but as you said, there are several shades and we have so many bowls/pitchers...in an array of palettes of green and in a variety of sizes. I plan to display the green bowls on shelves on the wall where I will have the white cabs, and in my baking center hutch which will also be white, so the island doesn't really have to match exactly. Does that make sense? I have to choose paint colors by this coming Friday and I am so undecided! Thanks for your help!

After getting over the giggles about the color names (who thinks those up?), I went to the SW site and looked at some of their suggestions. I kind of like this if you think you might like a green color. I got there by clicking on the colors in the color strip on this page: http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-family/SW7029-agreeable-gray/#/7029/?s=coordinatingColors&p=PS0 I'll bet if you play around on this site for a bit you'll find some possibilities that speak to you.

For the reason I stated previously, I honestly wouldn’t paint it. However, if you’re determined to do so, do yourself a huge favor and pick up tons of swatches (or ask for/buy a whole fan deck) from Benjamin Moore. Next, go home and pick a few colors you think might work and then buy samples of each. Tip: Test the colors by painting the inside of the cabinet doors. ;)

Right now you pretty much have a blank slate. Everything is white or neutral. What are your color preferences? Do you like bold dark colors? Do you like pastel island colors? Are you into neutrals? More information would help. If you're interested in seeing some virtual color renderings check out my web site, Creative Visual Concepts. I can show you different looks to help you decide.
