Paint it with appliance paint! I am painting a stainless dishwasher to black. Any home improvement center or hardware store will have everything you need.
Hello Becky! You can paint your dishwasher to match the cabinets, too. Click on the link below to access a guide on how to do it. Good luck!

Cut little squares of masking tape to cover the numbers and words that you don’t want to paint. They are easy to take off after painting the dishwasher. If you need to replace any letters and numbers, use vinyl rub on stencils. You may have to search for the right size. If you have a Cricut cutting machine, you may be able to get right size, maybe even curved. Best wishes ☺️
You can also buy appliance wraps which are either magnetic or a thin vinyl . Check out https://www.applianceart.com or https://www.bestapplianceskins.com .
there is special appliance paint you can use to change the appearance.
Put removable contact paper on it, elevates the painting and the appliance paint may not match
I have purchased large magnets that cover the entire dishwasher except the control area. I have four that I use for each season. I love them!
I painted mine appliance white from Rustoleum, mask and tape off the surrounding area and put a drop cloth on floor, open the kitchen door on a nice day and spray it 2 xs.
You can find them on Amazon as well as the links I gave.
