Hi, I am planning on painting my kitchen cabinets white, but am unsure of what color white I should use. I hope to paint the walls a neutral off-white color also, but with sections under my chair-rail in the adjacent dining area and the soffet over my cabinets in sage. The trim will be bright white and I hope to eventually install an oak floor, tropical brown granite countertops, and I will be updating the cabinet hardware with satin nickel. The appliances will be a combo of black and stainless. Appreciate any cabinet and neutral wall color suggestions that work with this. Thanks!
Thanks for the suggestions! I have thought about using Behr's Swiss Coffee on the cabinets for a color, but then I am not sure what to use on parts of the walls that will not be sage. For the person that asked about the curtains etc.. in the room, I am waiting to pick out all the accents and accessories until I have completed the bones of the room. Also, the cabinets are currently an off white or beige. In fact, the whole room is a beige, It's not a nice beige- more like a dirty cream color (cabinets, walls, trim, and ceilings). I think the cabinets are original (1956), but overall they are in good shape. I would love to buy new cabinets too (in a stained spice color), but expense wise, I'm thinking the re-finishing white is the way to go. I've seen some beautiful kitchen with the wite cabinets, wood floors, and granite counters.

I have kitchen cabinets that I love. However, the doors are straight out of the 1980s and I hate them. I'd like to update them myself with a little paint and molding but I'm not sure how to go about it since they aren't flush all the way around. They are beige cabinets with wood that covers the top and bottom of each cabinet door and acts as the "pull" to open the door. They stick up about 1/8". How would you go about updating them?

I just bought a house and the kitchen cabinets are painted a yellow that is flaking off. Underneath the cabinets are a dark cherry color and I want to stain the cabinets to either their natural wood color or to use a colored stain on them. I love those new stains that are tinted.
I have a wood (maple) kitchen cabinet door that has developed a crack that is about to split the door lengthwise if I don't do something soon. I want to glue it but I want to use the best glue for that so the door stays together and doesn't make it look messy. If I am unable to repair this crack I am afraid I will have to replace all my kitchen doors (about 20) to make sure they match. I don't want to do that since we are going to move in a year or two.
