Change Backsplash or Wall paint?

8 years ago

We recently gutted and renovated our kitchen. We will be having pot lights installed in a few days instead of the lights shown in here, which may make a difference to what I'm about to get in to.

I love this cracked glass 'Jayda Coffee' backsplash, but I'm not sure I'm loving it installed. It's very dark (and different from what I'm used to). I'm also not sure if it's the paint colour that is throwing me off. The green is nice with the cupboards, but I feel it has an 'old' look when I look at it with the brown backsplash.

Any comments are most welcome. Changing the backsplash IS an option, or would a different colour (colour ideas welcome) paint be all that is needed?

I personally like the backsplash but hate the green on the walls. Change that first (easy) and then see how you like it.

Also I think a stainless fridge would really pull everything together if that's in the budget.

Thanks Sara, I think we'll try that route any suggestions for a new paint colour? We do plan on a stainless fridge when this one kicks the bucket, but it's not in the plans for right now. We were not going to get new appliances originally, but then I fell in love with the idea of a wall oven, so the stove was the only thing we replaced.

Something in the light gray family would be nice! Keep it fresh!

Oh another suggestion would be changing the lightbulbs in the under cabinet lighting, they cast yellow which clashes with the backsplash.
