Teal would set off that orange so nicely! Have you considered running the teal from there in one or two stripes across the cabinets and the orange wall to bring them together? I think that would look lovely~
My husband is very leery of having the cabinets painted. xD A friend of ours just painted her cabinets white, and he wasn’t as horrified as he thought (the first time I suggested white cabinets it was like some kind of sacrilege) so I might be able to bring him around one day.
The wood cabinets might be okay though - I’m going to be bringing in a lot of wood elements as part of the design I think, and blue curtains, so we’ll see where it goes from there.
Thank you for the suggestion. :D
I never knew how many people hate the very idea of white cabinets. When we were renovating everyone was all “but they’ll show the dirt!”… yeah, thats the point, then I know what needs cleaning! Everyone loves the white kitchen now, they just couldn’t grasp it at the time. AND it lets you paint fun colours on the wall!
White cabinets always seemed like such a traditional farmhouse thing to me that I am a little taken aback by how stunned people are by the idea as being far too contemporary/modern.
Hubby’s worry is that “once you paint them you can’t un-paint them”
