What color for kitchen walls?

I am so bad at this stuff......we are in the process of giving our kitchen a little facelift.

What color should we paint?

Cabinets are white
Stainless appliances

this is the counter

I think a light greyish blue would look great or taupe kind of color - nothing too dark though...

I think gray will blend to much. I tried to take what you had, and use it with a green or a tan, the colors I think would work the best

I like the fossil color - I just ordered my kitchen today
White cabinets, stainless appliances and the same backsplash!! I can't wait to see pics of your kitchen when it is finished.
I was thinking more of a Tuscan Red, but the darked browns work as well (like the Fossil from teh above post)

I would go with the darker color, I like that contrast with the white cabinets better.

I think we are going a touch on the darker side b/c of the white cabinets -- we just have to decide on a color!! DH is slightly color blind but doesn't want to admit it and the color he picks are way off Chat Icon

Re: What color for kitchen walls?

def something in the taupe/tan family. Since you are using cooler colors everywhere else, I would go with a tan color to add 'warmth'

I would do a beige, tan or taupe color. That would look really nice with the backsplash, IMO!

I would pull the tannish color that is sprinkled in your countertop and carry it to the walls

How much wall space do you have? I like warmer tones for the kitchen so I would go with a golden or gold/orange tone. If you want to go cooler I would go with sagey green.

I think a green would be a very nice accent with your cabinets and counters. We have saybrook sage which I know is a pop color on here and it looks great in the kitchen!
