I want to paint my house!

I need help figuring out how to paint my kitchen. I love how open and big my kitchen is but now that I am wanting to paint, I'm so confused! What I am trying to decide is if I need to paint the breakfast nook too since it's pretty much attached to the kitchen. Since I am wanting to paint myself I figure I will have to paint both the same color since it will be too hard to get a crisp painted edge on the other side of my laundry door. Here are some pictures:

I love the grey in the new HGTV Dream Home but I think it would clash with my tile/counters/cupboards and would make it too dark.



So I was thinking a light green color..I have some pops of a bright green apple color in my kitchen now (kitchenaid mixer, teapot on stove, candles on top of cupboards) Maybe something like this....what do you think??

  1. I'm in the same situation! I have a very similar cabinet color to yours, though I like yours better. My have a pink/flesh undertone. I am seriously considering a dark red wine color. What do you think? I like the gray paint, but the undertone in their cabinet works with gray. It's like picking a foundation at the makeup counter, you have to go with the undertones.
