Is your flooring going to change? Right now, your home looks like it falls into the cream foundation palette (warm and cosy). Your carpet looks like it is already cream.

A nice creamy white for the cabinets. Here's a cream kitchen to give you an idea.

Thank you! We are changing the flooring in the kitchen and dining area…..probably another light wood color. Like the cream colored cabinets..any color suggestion in BM?

HI -- I do not understand why you want to lower the trusses ... I wouldn't do that . If you could just do a wash or a light stain over the wood on the ceiling so it isn't so orange . I would not have the new kitchen white . Maybe a softer country color scheme . Look at Houseandhome.com for some country cottage kitchen color ideas .
