How to make my kitchen colorful
Made some updates to my kitchen with new granite and a light colored tile backsplash. But it now seems a bit monotonous with similar colors throughout, appreciate any suggestions to liven things up a bit. Paint cabinets? Or paint wall? would appreciate color recommendations! Thank you!

Comments (6)No doubt- we are born at the right time to be good cooks! Now, to be more specific about my liquid soap. Any unscented liquid base will do. I use Dr. Bronners's unscented liquid soap, which I order, in quart bottles, from drugstore.com. I add 1.5 tablespoons spearmint Essential oil to a quart.(I also add a couple of glass marbles to the bottle, to help the oil to mix in.) I get my spearmint EO from Brambleberry.com. They also sell liquid soap base in gallon bottles. This may be better for you, since I imagine you will need larger quantities than I do. I hope this info is helpful....See MoreI need a color for the kitchen wall that will make my kitchen pop

Comments (44)I think your kitchen is very nice, I don’t think the backsplash clashes with the cabinetry and I’m often critical of that in a lot of kitchen photos I see. You know what your kitchen reminds me of? Those rooms where a lot of different shades of whites, creams, and ivories are used... they don’t really match, but they all just go together nicely... and the thing (I think) that ties them all together is a lot of use of texture. So, for that, I like the chairs you have that are woven, as opposed to the smooth, white chairs. And I don’t think you need that tablecloth, I think the table looks just fine without it. I’d add some natural sea grass like colors and textures and some houseplants, maybe some wood cutting boards against the backsplash... any other colors I would gravitate towards would be soft blues and greens, nothing too intense....See MoreHow can I make my sunken living room flow from my kitchen?
Comments (9)Divide and conquer with two seating areas. Have a cozy seating area with 2 armchairs and ottoman/poufs at an angle to the fireplace. Have your TV and console on another wall and arrange a seating area with your couches in and L or parallel, and a round coffee table. I don't show it but you could place a console behind the sofa as suggested. I was drafting my mock-up and didn't see that zones had already been suggested but we are on the same page....See MoreRelated Professionals
