Kitchen in need of some loving

9 år siden

I have my new home in Carmel California. And I need to update my kitchen, it is incredibly outdated. I would like to keep the color of my cabinets and keep the appliances. But I need to change the countertop, remove the mirror backsplash, and possibly get a new farm sink.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advanced!

It is not outdated.
it is beautiful.
definitely don't change anything of it.
love the colours.

one thing to change if possible is the floor.
that is the only thing that i would personally change.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year....!

I would change anything but the greenery over the window. Maybe a roman shade there if you need privacy. I think once your stuff is in it will be fine. Maybe nice paint on the walls.

You're probably just tired of your kitchen, but it still feels modern and with just a few changes...you may love it again. A farmhouse sink would be lovely and also suggest changing the backsplash to Carerra marble (2nd picture), add blue roman blinds and a runner, and a hanging farmhouse type fixture (1st pic) over the sink and some blue pottery on the window ledge.

I agree with the other comments. It's beautiful as it is. If this were my kitchen, I would change the backsplash to match the counters--perhaps black subway tile--put in a wood floor, and remove the greenery over the window. Finished!

It is NOT outdated. paint in a greige that pick up the colors of the floor and does not make the wood look yellowish and remove that thing over the window. Lovely kitchen congratulations

What material is the counter? I agree with the others that it looks good, but I can understand if the material is less than desirable and you want something more durable.

I can also see that a mirrored backsplash might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think you'd want to keep it light, maybe something like tumbled stone?

Jazzing up the walls would be nice and effective. I have seen a farmhouse sink installed and what had to happen was to loose most of the area directly under the existing sink to a cut out and making two new shorter doors. You may be able to have a granite company cut out the granite without removing the old, removal and re-install, I hear, is expensive. I am guessing the cabinets need to be toned up with some new clear and maybe get a furniture touch up guy to tweak any minor issues with wear. You could also glaze the grooves before re-coating.

Change the color on the walls. Ditch the greenery above sink and maybe replace the flooring. It looks very nice as is.

Original post from December, I think she probably already made her changes :) (Although she appears to have never returned to the thread, so who knows)
