Backsplash for My Yellow Kitchen.. Please Share Thoughts...
Comments (28)Fishies - I LOVE that big, white tile you're holding up with your french manicured hand! The colour looks luscious, and it looks like tin, except white. 'Tin' is probably not '50's vintage' but it's kind of cottagey, so we're on the map. In my mind's eye, I can super-impose that tile onto your inspiration pic, and it looks good, so I figure it'll look good in your kitchen. I also like that the size is a little bigger than you'd expect. How does the colour compare to your original tile? How does it look with the marble? I guess making sure it matches the marble is key. Your kitchen will be predominantly yellow, brown (wood counter), off white, and greyish white (marble). I think it could handle a textured backsplash like the ones your showing us. (Sometimes I get bogged down with your accessories and fabrics, and I have to remember that those are just small touches against the larger backdrop of yellow, white, greyish-white, and brown.) I don't like the marble mosaic idea because it's lacking the 'cute cottage' feel. White is plain, plain, plain. It's not like you're doing a multi-coloured backsplash....See MoreBacksplash or no backsplash
Comments (20)So tired of hearing " but that will make it look dated" or "it wouldn't be good for resale" Everything is going to be dated at some point, the kitchen designers, cabinet companies and appliance companies make sure of that. Example: stainless steel appliances were just coming on the market 15 years ago when we gutted our kitchen for a remodel. It was hard for me to find stainless in my area at that time, I live in a small mid western town. So, have you noticed in the past few years appliance companies have been trying to bring out new colors, grayed looking stainless, now ice white etc. they are trying to make people think their stainless appliances are soon going to be "dated". But I have read in several articles that stainless is still the number one choice. I chose a cinnamon stained cherry wood for our new build. I thought about white because that is the trend right now, but I reasoned cherry cabinets will always be in style while the white trend Has just a few more years. I won't be a slave to trends. Just my opinion....See MorePaint kitchen cabinets, area rug or add backsplash?
Comments (5)With a short splash of counter-material, you don't use a tile backsplash. It's one or the other. I would add a simple crown molding to the cabinets. I'd also paint the back of the beadboard cabinet a different color. You see that often in cottage kitchens. I'm not sure what color would work with both the orange cabinets and the light blue walls though. With white cabinets, you could do a buttery yellow beadboard. You need a tall item on that bottom shelf to fill some of the space. Edit--yes, paint the uppers white! I would deepen the wall color if you did that....See MoreWhat would you do to these kitchen cabinets, backs splash, wood floor
Comments (14)kempek01 The house was done in warm colors until the last couple months when I have started liking cooler colors. Not sure what the change was in me maybe to brighten things up a bit or midlife wall paint change. I'm not good with colors and I wanted more of a gray however this gray is more of a blue it is SW reflection. I think it also makes the cabinets look more orange. Someone suggested SW agreeable gray or one that has warmer tones. I love to paint it actually relaxes me, picking out colors not so much. We are painting our ceilings white as they still have the builder paint. I read your comment to my husband and he asked how much chocolate I need. Thank you for a much needed laugh and to help with the anxiety of all these choices. Again I stink at putting everything together. I should have said that the island cabinet was used as a separation anxiety relief toy for our dog so that does need to get fixed. You are correct on the next owner thank you again for the laugh. I am torn between doing something for me for the next five years or saving for my forever home....See MoreFrank and Frank
