I would do it cream or a slate grey . Mines purple and I hate it . My last kitchen was same as yours but had oak work tops and I used travatine stone tiles which looked really good .

i really hate the blue lol

TBH that light blue you have on the other walls goes nice with it and keeps it bright without going white/cream.

pics of colours you mean, i know what they are but i cant see them matching what i ave at all, i can only imagine your thinking of a different shade to me

Deep red/burgundy if you ask me

Bronze tinted mirror, may need to paint the pale blue wall sections to suit as well. Not sure on cost but will look better than tiles.

the reason i want to do tiling instead of paint is because the plaster isnt in a great state.

think im gona have to go and get some sample tiles.

Imo some black/grey tiles about 6/7 high (depandant on size) and paint the top half.

Painted walls and matching upstanding like mine.

I intended to get a cappuccino glass splash back for my hob. You can order them made to measure in loads of colours and stick them on the wall.

We have a random multicolour checkerboard thing with cream, green, red and blue.

Was here when we moved in and is a country-style kitchen but I love it.

White is boring and black is too dark imo.

Yeh I imagine black would be far to dark!

Cheers pal, gona update my house thread later I think :-) a lot has changed !

So yeh still stuck lol , was thinking of maybe a small raised border same style as the works tops and large cream tiles

Kitchen looks good :thumbs:

dont go black - we have black and its what I want to change

Black .. Hmm I think that would be to dark?

Black tiles.:cool:

reckon white will go with the cream cupboards?

also looked into white tiles with grey grout but im not sure...

Can't you just go with white tiles? Missus showed me a lime green splashback the whole way round, but was on a completely white kitchen.

I need some ideas on finish my kitchen...

What i was thinking was a lime green glass splash back behind the hob, then tile (cream) the rest of the wall up the end of the wall the sink is on, and to fridge side of the door to the kitchen, then paint ther rest cream.. but im not sure if that will be to much cream?
Im happy with my proposed set up just not sure about colours !?

Any ideas would be great, im very open to any suggestions ! :) - also any flooring suggestions would be good!

im not keen on doing a whole wall of splash back / coloured glass though before thats suggested! :thumbs:
