Would love to see piccies of what you've already completed if ya ever feel like it! So did you get tired of having a white kitchen? I always contemplate going white, but would be nervous to make a big change if I ever wanted to redo our kitchen. I *love* seeing other people's white kitchens though! Our kitchen is only about 9 yrs old and has sort of cherry colored cupboards, stainless steel, and black granite w/ striations/veins. |
I think a true white kitchen is timeless classic. Mine is white washed, so the wood grain shows, and almost has a slight pinkish tone. The finish is chipping off areas that get wet. I find the more natural wood tones more grounding and in sync with my so called tropical life. Koa is the timeless wood standard here but way too expensive. Funny that designers are saying whitewash is making a comeback, just about the time I want to ditch it.
The biggest change I look forward to is having upper cabinets go all the way to the ceiling to have more storage and not have the shelf above that is hard to clean. I love different dishes and glass ware, have way too many sets, but love switching around so need more storage.
My kitchen is open to the "great room", where I have eggplant dark purple leather furniture cause I do love color. Matter of fact there is purple in almost every room in my house, and some rooms are moving more into various chases of turquoise, my other favorite.
Love home projects, and spend much time daily thinking about it all. Spring is always a fun season to start things for a refreshing renewal.
