You Decide: Kitchen Paint and Counters

Ryan and I have a difficult time deciding what colors we want to paint anything. When we moved into our current rental we said, "hey let's paint" and now it's 16 months later and the walls are still boring white.

So, we are going to allow our friends and family help us out some with picking paint colors and whatnot.

First choices are colors for the kitchen. We have narrowed it down to two options (VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE IN THE SIDEBAR TO THE RIGHT). The one on the left was our original choice which we hashed out sitting at Golden Coral for dinner one night. The one on the right came later. We would be fine with either of them. We are looking at doing a chair rail possibly or maybe just making one wall (The cabinet wall) the darker color and then the rest the other. Or we might do dark color on cabinet wall and chair rail with both colors on the other 3 walls. See why we need your help?

Here's the background info on the kitchen.

• Kitchen size is approximately 16x14 +/- a foot
• Floor will be refinished wood...not sure of exact color yet
• Cabinets will be natural wood finish....light in color
• Kitchen has 2 windows, one over the sink and one in the corner on the opposite side from where the cabinets will be.
• There are 4 doors in the kitchen one leading into the small bath, one leading into the laundry room, one leading into the front of the house, and one leading into a bedroom.

And here is a pic of the kitchen as it is now.

Now it's time to vote for your favorite of the color choices shown above.
