Kitchen Colors a trend or here to stay?
My husband and I are remodeling are downstairs. We’re putting in light bamboo hard wood floors. Currently, our kitchen cabinets are maple. We were thinking of making them black cabinets with some glass inter-lays to contrast the light flooring. We also chose a tannish colored granite (we wanted something very neutral). Do you think the black cabinets are a trend or do you think this will still look good when we go to sell the house 5-10 years from now?
When I was small one night my mom served dinner on her best china. It was not an exceptional dinner it was meat loaf or something else mundane. When we questioned her on it she said. "I love these dishes. I want to enjoy them more then just the holidays. They make me happy." After that she pulled the dishes and the good silver out at least 2 times a week.
I learned a lesson from that. Do what makes you happy. Enjoy your kitchen for what you want. In 1825 days or 4000 days from now let the next person decide what will make them happy.
You could have the most impressive kitchen in the world and it may not suit someone else. What will sell is neat and clean and functional.
