Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Oct 07, 2010 12:38 pm Hi All DH and I are saving to fully re-do 'my' kitchen, we not long bought but I think realistically it might be 1yr away, then I thought why not paint the tile splashbacks and cupboards, replace the handles in the meantime. So.... this is where you all come in, as you can see the floor tiles, while old are fairly neutral, but the oven and cooktop/rangehood are all dark brown and the bench tops are like a light green. What colour would you paint the tiled splash back and kitchen cupboards to get us through until we can replace it all? Thanks in advance for looking at the pic (photo is frm real estate, not our furniture etc) and any advice, apologies if I have posted in the wrong place. http://s1177.photobucket.com/albums/x35 ... 0Pre%20AP/ Re: Help with quick make over while I save $$$ for dream kit 3Oct 07, 2010 2:18 pm I'm with d@n - it really doesn't look too bad just dated. If I was going to do anything it would only be to paint the tiles splash back a neutral colour but again I could live with the way it looks now. I can't see the point in wasting any money - even a small amount - when in all likelihood it will all be replaced within 12-24mths. Some things are worth waiting for.

With painted splashbacks, paint the cupboards and doors, new handles and benchtop it will look amazing. Depends how much you will spend on a new one I guess.
