Help, deciding if my kitchen will be too white?

I've started to paint my kitchen cupboards white but with white appliances I'm not sure if I should have gone white. Any suggestions? Of course I'm planning on new wood laminate flooring and new counters so maybe I can just incorporate colors in the walls?

I am loving the look of your white cabinets! {we have white cabinets with white appliances and I love it!} We have a "granny smith apple green" on the walls so it helps to tone it down a bit. Go for it! Your painted cabinets look brand new! Great job so far!

I love white...maybe you could go around the edge of the cabinets with a different color, or change the hardware. I have all white appliances and plan on painting my brown cabinets too. With your counters and the rest of your decor..I think it will be great !! will go good with the new floors too.

Stick with the white - it will look great. The white will update your kitchen and make it look like new. Colour on the walls will help, and maybe a new tile backsplash in a deeper colour if you can swing it? Also, some darker hardware will add some contrast. We recently painted our cabinets white, added a backsplash and spray painted the hardware. You can see how it looks here....

You can't go too white in the kitchen. You can add a pop of color with accessories or a fun back splash but white is clean and beautiful.

I agree with what has already been said..white is great! Add some colour with a new backsplash, and accessorize however you like..it will be full of light! Go for it! :)
