I can tell that you are not writing from Boston! :>) Well, if you want white cabs, use your trim paint in a gloss. If you need to fill with molding from the top of the cabinet to the ceiling, it will match. I love blue and white in a kitchen.

How about White? What colour are your cabinets?

Hi again. Finally took the plunge and had the kitchen resprayed. So much lighter and a great job by the professionals. Hard to remember the mustard kitchen now, except the photos remind me.

Hi, regarding your tile size: if the floor and splash back tile sizes are very different, the grout lines won’t matter. But if it looks like the lines should, but don’t, match, it can be off putting. For instance, our splash back tiles are small, rectangular and laid vertically whereas our floor tiles are 600 x 600. Your eye, in this example, doesn’t try to “follow” the grout line. If it did and they were “off”, it could be visually dissonant, so I’d want tiles that were 100/200/300 or 600 wide. Not to say other tile sizes are wrong, just that you do need to consider the lines. Don’t forget though, unless you’re planning an early sale, choose what you love regardless of any “rules”. As for your grout, even though we used modern grout, we have also sealed ours with a product bought from a local hardware store. Early days, but highly recommended that extra step
