Kitchen tiles off?
3 years ago
Would you change these kitchen tiles? Hubby likes them but I can’t decide. It may be that we wait a couple of years and do a full kitchen renovation, but just trying to gift it a refresh in the meantime….

Tips for making off the shelf kitchen look custom built
Comments (5)You can add crown molding to the top of the cabinets, and add another smaller piece of molding along the bottom of the cabinets as well. Consider under cabinet lighting (you see how beautiful it looks in the photo). If you are adding a new backsplash, a simple white subway tile will much match any counter top you select. You can add your electrical sockets up underneath your cabinets so you don't have to cut into any of your backsplash tiles. Try to make at least two of your cabinet doors glass fronts with lighting, like in the photo you attached. Also, try the Internet to find some nicer cabinet hardware at a discount (as opposed to Home Depot or Lowes). Good luck with your new kitchen!...See MoreHelp me finish off my kitchen please!
Comments (10)Hi Monica. The kitchen looks great. I'd go for a light grey on the walls, you could look at farrow and ball strong white or a darker grey such as cornforth white , both should work with the floor which has grey tones. Can you take more pics of the seating end and give dimensions? I'm just wondering if a small sofa would be better next to the kitchen units (broken up by a really tall plant) with a chair in the corner between the doors with a lamp behind? The compact sofa, chair (also comes in grey and yellow) and floor lamp are all m&s. I like Monica's idea of enamel pendants, these are by pooky. Will you be dressing the windows at all? I'd accessorise with lots of different textures and plants to get that scandi feel. I'd look at a mirror splashback which will also make the room feel wider, I like an antiqued effect for texture but you may prefer a plain one. If you're keeping the walls very light then a few accessories such as picture frames will work...See MoreAny ideas what tiles would go with an off white marble wall.
Comments (2)Tiling a wall floor to ceiling can sometimes be a rather cold way to finish your bathroom. By all means tile where the sink and bath are but I would use a bathroom paint for the rest of the room which is washable. This also will allow you to re-paint for a different look in the future. For behind the sink a simple white tile would perhaps be less likely to clash with the marble. Stacked tiles look rather smart (2nd pic)....See MoreHow to finish this kitchen off (and maybe insert some more colour)?
Comments (9)Hi Toria, are you planning to change the worktop or flooring? The gloss mdf kitchen doors are not the easiest paint, vinyl wraps might be a way to go, or get them sanded holes for the handles filled and professionally spray painted, when making colour choices it's important to consider the colour palette, and have a nice range of colours that complement each other, just having everything in one colour can be quite bland. Check online for colour palettes options, and see which one speaks to you. Here is an example of what I mean: https://kitchencabinetkings.com/ideas/kitchen-color-schemes But to be fair I'm not a big fan of quite a few of these options, but I just to demonstrate the principle that I was talking about. but there are so many more to check out. https://www.bhg.com/kitchen/color-schemes/inspiration/kitchen-color-scheme/ so look at the images of the kitchens that you like and then create a colour palette that you can follow. To get a cohesive design don't pick just one colour from the palette and try to match that to everything. You can also keep the cabinets white and introduce colour with accessories and artwork. Maybe change the worktop for a wooden worktop ( can be wood effect laminate) which is a classic skandy vibe that is super easy to add pops of colours and very easy to do for a novice and on a tight budget. Good luck...See More- 3 years ago

3 years agoThey are dated and rather busy. If budget allows get a tiler to remove them and put up new ones (assuming you still want tiles). A good tiler could add new tiles without skimming but it depends how bumpy the wall is after removal. I think it will modernise the kitchen and neutral tiles won’t clash with anything in your room. Really like your grey walls.
