The backsplash was glass tiles and the walls were white. It was incredible. I also watched Sarah's House, where she did a farmhouse kitchen with creams and a punch of yellow. She used a beautiful fabric to compliment her decor. So what are you looking for? Traditional, country, modern? If you get on the Kraftmaid cabinetry website you can have a free catalog sent. It has about 100 different kitchens. I'd would say go for paint, but spend some time thinking about the colors you want to use. Also, what do you want your jumping off point to be? Fabric or backsplash?Becca Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08848398486925857953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-6300805439505292572010-04-26T22:05:26.527-04:002010-04-26T22:05:26.527-04:00I hate tornadoes!

I would paint the cabinets to lighten/freshen things up. A white, or a light creamy color would be great.<br />For the back splash...I love a tumbled marble. IT is what we did and it looks classic, timeless and it not very expensive.<br />You just have to seal it.<br /><br />We have a kitchen/bath business, so I see a lot of transformations. Nothing makes a Mom happier than having an updated kitchen.Busy Bee Suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18115487928147732314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-8720387216927561262010-04-26T08:57:44.270-04:002010-04-26T08:57:44.270-04:00Thanks for the link...I'll check it out.
Ho...Thanks for the link...I'll check it out. <br /><br />How about some shade of red/terra cotta tile as a backsplash? The tile places usually let you bring home a board...you could bring one home and prop it up and see what you think. I like reds with yellow and think it would look pretty with your yellow paint. If you are for sure doing something to the cabinets you could try painting one white and see how you like it. If you don't like the white you could stain over...more work yes, but changing your cabinets is a big thing and they are something you look at every day so you want to get it just right. Good luck!Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727615822243830106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-86386306062691083912010-04-26T07:53:02.054-04:002010-04-26T07:53:02.054-04:00Have a great week!

I am glad you made it through the nasty weather...it was tough here too....I actually woke up sometime after 2 on Saturday morning to a horrendous storm...and the weather radio blaring...and the sirens in town going off. I love rain...I am not so much a fan of storms.STILLMAGNOLIAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07453175923858351452noreply@blogger.com
