Gosh, you really have a handle on your sense of great colors to bring in! As a painter with 35 yrs experience, I haven't seen a single video that's better. Honestly. I just finished a complete new kitchen reno with off white uppers and dark brown wood lower cabinets and anguished over the mix of possibilities for years before jumping in. I loved the results but the thought processes that go into that kind of project (especially when doing it for yourself!!) were mind blowing. Then, I read where you respond to comments. WOW. Few do that here. What a wonderful sense of presenting yourself as a legit source!!!! I am duly impressed and as such, subscribed. TY!! Makes me want to paint the cabinets in my "new-to-me" home, taking them from white washed (PINK!) cabinets to something more palatable. Has to wait for the time being till the cash flow begins again. AGAIN! Thanks so much.

Not doing white but my pickled oak cabinets have got to be changed. 22 years ago they were all right since they came with the house but I'm really tired of them. This video helped me a lot. Wonderful video.

Love that mushroom/taupe kitchen cabinet color. 😍

Evergreen fog from Sherwin-Williams. It's all the rage right now and homes . Very soft very cozy. It's just a beautiful green. I think it will carry out 2023.

I keep thinking about painting my cabinets.

I really like white kitchen cabinets, but I have to be realistic, it’ll get dirty easy, especially around the stove and I have kids. I’ve found beige and taupe is a perfect combination!

This is a perfect resource right as I'm looking at paint colors for new cabinets that aren't white or light grey. Thanks!

At 2:26 there is a wooden island top which is defs earth tone AND I actually love the blue....

[janisezack]

[taishar]

Exactly what i was looking for thank u

This video is very helpful however It didn’t help me to find a color for my vanity. Can you do a video about the best color for bathroom vanity especially when you have cold tiles and warm floor like wood?. I have not clear what is the oak and maple color. My wall tile is a calacatta with a light gray shade and the floor is like wood with light and dark beige tones. Finding a color that goes with both shades is difficult because I don’t know whether to look for cold or warm tones and I think that very white would not be a good contrast. I wish that you can help me and thank you so much.

What color would you choose with black granite countertops, smartcore Glacier Marble tile floor. Ceiling only has four recessed lights, two small windows.

[deejaydoubleyou]

Great stuff. I’m in the uk and I think I’ll go for a uk version of one of the dark greys.

[estherolawuyi]

super cute... just none of the pictures show earth tone counter tops so I can't picture them in my home... I'm rewatching now to see if maybe I missed one or two

What paint color for cabinets and hardware do you suggest for a white kitchen with marble flooring?

[baljitgill]

Hi, great info.Thanx.
I am in the process of choosing my right cabinet colour for my new built home.Its a large kitchen and facing north. I kind of like darker shades, which dulux colour do you suggest, dulux fairoaks or dulux klavier? Also, since the whole kitchen cabinetry is going to be dark one tone shade of colour with white benchtop. Do i go for gloss finish or satin finish? Its a large kitchen. Totally need help here!!

Inspiring! This is very helpful. Now I am thinking about using BM Revere Pewter for my kitchen cabinet - will it look good with my dark brown countertop, light taupe floor, and BM White Dove & BM classic grey walls?
