Too much of a good thing? Design advice needed!
Comments (1)Can we see photos?? That will help us be able to offer better advice....See MoreWood counters, wood cabinets, wood floors--too much?
Comments (19)You're right about it being hard to find pictures! But then it's hard to find pictures of non-white kitchens these days. There is a huge variety in the photos that I found. They cover everything from ultra modern to very rustic. Take a look and see what you like and what resonates with you. You're obviously drawn to wood (me too!) and I think you could have a beautiful kitchen with wood floors, cabs and counters. It's probably also something that would be pretty easy to make a mess out of. But you can say the exact same thing about a kitchen that is all white. You'll want to make sure your wood tones work together. I'd love to see pictures of samples you're thinking of using. Do what you love!

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 MoreHelp! Too much wood!
Comments (45)I don’t think painting the floor is an option as it butts up against these floors. So I’m refinishing them with clear. Im excited about the rug idea to break it up ; maybe a dark blue if I can find it😊. Thanks for the thought though!...See Moreteddytoo
