You did it!

Proved that you can blend Gray... Cream tones and white! I just purchased a home with AGA appliances, fridge, stove and dishwasher in creme. It's been so hard coming up with a colour scheme because of these beauties :). In your opinion do you think they could fit in your design? I've been going back and forth between all white cabinets and counters with dark floors or Gray cabinets, white tile and dark floors?

Hi Barbara. I would try gray cabinets with your AGA appliances. I think it would work. Very important that you find a warm gray, not a cool gray. Warm gray has beige in the undertone which is what blends nicely with cream. White tile works as you can see in this kitchen, but I would consider a lighter floor with your color scheme. Hope that helps. Charmean

Yes great advice thanks! I have to go darker because of the type of floor again I inherited solid Brazilian cherry wood floors so only colour that they can restrain is ebony. I will add a pic for you to see what I'm up against. Thanks!

I'm doing Ben Moore classic gray walls and simply white trim. House is a 1935 build bungalow across the street from lake. So want it white and bright with pops of colour. This is where I'm heading on my design but haven't fully committed to the wallpaper for main bath. Tile to left is main bath and tile to right is ensuite. It's exciting taking old and keeping certain elements but freshening it up... Hopefully total in home by Oct 10!
