I know white/farmhouse kitchens are all the rage right now. But i’m Just not a white kitchen cabinet kind of girl. Could we please see some more diverse ideas? I’m on a tight budget and need to reuse my builder grade oak cabinets, planning on cleaning up and clear coating or maybe painting frames and clear coating doors. Also need a backsplash. Thanks!

Hello Katrina! I painted my kitchen cabinets gray and I love them. gray is a neutral color so you could go with many different colors on the walls. Blues, greens, yellows, different grays. Here is an idea for you: https://www.hometalk.com/diy/kitchen-dining/kitchen-dining-furniture/kitchen-remodel-with-gray-cabinets-16075471?expand_all_questions=1
Kitchen Remodel With Gray Cabinets
