Please ladies, enjoy your kitchens - you have to live with them all day every day. Unless you are thinking of selling in the really short term then have what you love - the next person will probably replace it all anyway, especially if you plan on being in your home for even 10 years. Kitchens are changing so much with all the new technology and products coming on the market. Mcctrish more photos of your kitchen would be helpful, I really can't comment too much with the photo you have provided, but I have just totally redone my kitchen (all for me) and I intended having a glass splashback but when the time came, I found it was just too plain and would do nothing for my kitchen. I think with the glass, you need to have a stunning feature colour to make it effective. That was my problem, there was no colour I could have to make it 'sing'. Look at photos on Houzz and you will see that glass splashbacks are the feature of kitchens. Start with the splashback before you decide anything else. Also, if you are just replacing your doors, are there any other fixed panels in the room that will be replaced also or will it be necessary for them to stay, which will then affect what you choose.

Painting over cabinet doors can be tricky, depending on what material you're painting over. An easier alternative is just to replace the doors and drawers, and you can do this very cost-effectively by going for a plain melamine colour like this: If you have open cabinets instead of open shelves, it helps to keep the dust off but they still look great. Or you could go for wall cabinets either side like this:

Hi There! I have a sample of the Malibu, and the Wattyl white, and the Laminex Polar White is a good match, and being such a crisp white, it should work well with the grey in your flooring. You can always add warmth and an accent colour with your decor and furnishings . I hope it works out for you! Kind Regards, Sharon

Hi Khanh.... thanks for this. It appears that by looking at a lot of the Houzz pictures with kitchens on an already existing beige floor, it looks good to have a similar colour cupboard door, but have a darker bench top and splash back/tiles to off-set the beige colour? however any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.....Joanne
