This is my kitchen, via photos before we moved in. Oh do I have ideas for this room.
I am planning on painting the cabinets white, and the walls are going to be silver sage from restoration hardware. My husband really likes dark cabinets, so I am willing to put this out there as an option. What do you think? (Note: photoshop is being tricky, so this is not an exact, just an idea.
Leaving the walls, painting the cabinets
Staining the cabinets dark
Painting the walls silver sage, white cabinets. I would love to have a white subway tile back-splash and I am going to build up the trimwork on top of the cabinets. I am also debating either white wainscoting on the island or black painted beadboard. The pantry door will eventually be replaced with a solid door so you won’t see our food!

October 15, 2009 at 11:21 pmIf you’re in the mood for a compromise, you could do the main cabs white and the island dark. However, I think given the nature of your degree and the fact that you will undoubtedly send far more time in the kitchen, you should claim a dictatorship.
ps: love the light fixture!

October 20, 2009 at 12:44 pmI agree with RTA I think it would look great to make the main cabs white and do your black bead board on the island. But who am I? Just a random stranger with an opinion.:)
