Agree, don't paint the cabinets, you have no idea what the "Buyers" will want. Paint (on walls) is the least expensive change. Yes, simple pulls, look at Restoration Hardware (you can get --I hate saying cheaper--) less expensive, honestly at Ikea. I replaced all the hardware in my Custom, woo hoo, Master Walk-in Closet done by Cal Closets. It was crap (sorry) & the next day went to Ikea & replaced it all.

You can always use the Chip It from Sherwin Williams to find your colors.

I think it is really pretty. But there is a lot of it since it is covering so many spaces. Would you mind sharing the color? I'm actually looking for a similar color for an accent wall in my office. Like a stormy blue grey. When I was researching colors on Benjamin Moore, I started looking at the grays that lean blue over the blues that lean gray. The good news about the color you chose is that it does not in any way look like a baby blue or a highly saturated blue. It is dustier in the light and a little more intense in low light. I wonder if in your case, you could repaint the more open spaces with the same color, but have some white added. You'd have to test it first since just adding white doesn't necessarily just dilute the color, but it might be a way to tone some areas down if they feel too dark for you. I agree with other posters to see how it looks once you get your furniture and carpet in. It may all come together then.

do you want to make the cream 'your' white or do you have white trim as well? you haven't mentioned counter and backsplash which need to be included in your decision. paint is the recommended last choice in finishes. blue is lovely and current, however not as conducive to a cozy and appetite- enhancing environment as warmer tones. the depth of your paint colour is important to factor in. decide if you want to 'pop' the cabinets with drama or have a more subtle approach. if the cabs go to the ceiling, you have more opportunity to create a visually separate space with paint colour....is that something you are considering?
