Can’t say that I like it that much either but that’s just personal choice. As Laura suggested, paint the samples on paper or cardboard at least A4size and at least two coats to give a true indication of the colour. Move them around the room at different times of day to see how light and shadow affects the colour. I usually keep a roll of lining paper for this very purpose! Also might be an idea to place each sample with the kitchen unit doors, worktop, flooring, fabric and accessories, altogether if poss, then take photos. That way you’ll have a mood board with each colour. Personally, I would stick with a light colour all round as I think there’s a lot going on all ready with it being a kitchen and busy area. But ultimately it’s your home, so go with what you love.

HI Gina, Definitely paint it out - doors, windows and stairs (leave handrail dark to contrast ). I spent 10 years at our previous 1930's house debating whether to paint the original bannisters which had been varnished by previous owners. Prep it all well - sand and clean and prime or you may get away with no sanding and use Zinsser B-I-N primer. I used white eggshell on bannisters and stained the handrails dark. I also painted the hall and landing walls/ceiling in Pavilion Grey (valspar colour match) and white. I can't tell you what a difference it made to the brightness and feel of the area and we already had big stained glass front door and long window on the stairs but the colour scheme really brightened it up. Will try to add photos.. Good luck. BTW we've recently moved to an 1830's weavers house and its dark, dark, wood EVERYWHERE!! Lots more painting to hone my skills..!

Thanks Sarah. It doesn't go deep so I didn't think it'll hold the filler well. I'll try that.

I understand your dilemma as I painted 2 bookcases in 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of eggshell, and it has chipped in places, mainly at the bottom. I have heard that oil based eggshell is more hardwearing but it’s very smelly and anything oil based gives me a shocking migraine. I think a satin or Matt varnish may help. I’m not sure how it would take to re-painting over the varnish in the future.
