Suggestions needed for colourful kitchen units for modest cost
Hi
Our house burned down & now I'm trying to design a jazzy new kitchen, that isn't going to cost a fortune. I am particularly wanting to have the cupboard doors a vibrant turquoise/peacock blue but no manufacturers of kitchens that I can find do that type of colour as standard. I then looked on the internet for companies that would paint your doors the colour of your choice and have had quotes back in excess of £20,000 which is way too much. I quite like tongue & groove doors, as they look quite rustic and I live in a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations of how or from where I can achieve a kitchen like this at a reasonable cost. I'm showing a picture of the colour tones I would like in the kitchen.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Comments (0)Just buying this one bed flat but need some ideas please. On a very tight budget but love sourcing items from anywhere to save on cost. The views are of the hills when looking to the right of the window l. To the left the roof juts out and doesn't give such a good view. Storage heater will need covering. Any suggestions on colours, furniture layout will be greatly received x...See Morekitchen units colours help!!
Comments (30)Hi there, we have just had our kitchen finished in navy blue (RAL2004) we found the 2011 too light. We used Silestone calatatta gold worktops, full height splash back and island worktop, we painted all the walls in Little Greene Tusk, which brings warmth to the walls. Maybe look at a darker oak flooring, as this will add a lot of warmth to the room, we went with an antique oak (I normally absolutely hate dark/antique oak but for me, the floor makes our kitchen)....See MoreKitchen Unit Colour
Comments (8)The kitchen fascias look cream on my image not white. The easiest option would have been to paint the walls in a bright colour. Painting kitchen fascias is a hard task. Perhaps a sage green? That would fit the country style you’re looking for, it’s a lovely modern colour and should go well with your walls. I’d aim for a lighter shade of green though. Different manufacturers will produce different shades....See MoreTile colour suggestions for rustic kitchen
Comments (10)I feel there is perhaps too much colour and pattern. I think going for a french country look with white walls, including the brick, blue additions in accessories and for the fabric. I think Zelig tiles in an off white or blue or even pink would suit your kitchen. I would go for a small gingham print for the skirts in a blue, green or pale grey. A thin country stripe would also go well. Just keep the palate simple. Zelig tiles have a lovely pearlised hand made look (first pic). There is a beautiful magazine called Country Homes & Gardens which showcases lovely cottages and other country houses and a great place to get ideas. Pinterest is also good for ideas and is free. Here’s some ideas I found:...See More

7 years agoOr IKEA (if only they'd pay me for every time I mention them ;-)). Good quality, even better price.
You probably can't paint their cabinet doors (not sure), but you could paint the walls, and/or go for lovely rustic gazed tiles in a striking colour, combine fitted cabinets with an old workbench type of island.
