What would you do?

We are in the early stages of planning a new kitchen. I love to really think things through and happily consider others suggestions. The room is a large open space area incorporating dining and living. I have a white leather modular couch and the pictured dining table. These are the only two pieces of furniture that will be staying. I would love to know what colour scheme you would have for the kitchen and flooring if this was your home. Thanks

Can you paint cement and ceramic tile?
Commentaires (2)Hi Pamela, Yes you can but note that it won't last forever because it is paint after all. However when you apply it the correct way, it can last for a few years. You could use Homax Tough Tile Tub & Sink Refinishing Kit (http://www.homedepot.com/p/Homax-Tough-as-Tile-One-Part-Brush-On-White-2106/202061380#) , which you can find at Home Depot for about $35 or so. I used it for the bath tub and tiles in the bathroom and love how it came out. Let's say that it is the next best solution if you want to change the look of your tiles on a budget. Just be aware that it is very toxic so you may want to wear gloves and a mask because the epoxy gives off some really nasty fumes. I’d even say, best to open the windows if possible. Having the right basics to work off are crucial so make sure to first and foremost clean your tile with the solution that is in the kit. Once the tiles are clean you can apply the epoxy paint with the brush that is in the kit. Don’t worry about the brush strokes, as they will even out eventually. You will need to apply more than one coat but make sure the first one is dry before applying the second one. It takes a few hours for the first one to dry. Two coats were sufficient to cover my tile and provide a great looking finish but if you want to apply more (depending on the tiles’ existing color) you can. Note that you can also paint the grout in between. On the box it says that it is completely dry after a few days but I’d say one week to be safe. A bit frustrating to have to wait that long but it’s worth the wait. Good luck! Elfya... Voir plusColours - which colour and where!?
Commentaires (0)This is the wall of my living room leading up to the stairs. We would like to paint a wall - hubby thinks wall with painting and chimney which protrudes from the wall. I'm inclined to think the back wall on either side of the chimney (more work). What do you think - we do have high ceilings... Now the second problem is the staircase...we will varnish the stairs the same colour as the parquet BUT...the banisters and upright were painted white at some point partially sanded and now look strange. I want to paint them because there is a lot of crevices and I think it will be too much work to sand it all done. We are leaning towards a darker colour - in the picture it looks black but in fact it's a a dark shade of blue. I was also thinking of F&Bs "Black Blue". I would like any and all suggestions on where to paint and colour ideas. Thanks so much!... Voir plusColours - which colour and where!?

il y a 7 ansGreat I'm glad you like the idea. If you introduced timber floors into the space then I would limit the timber in the kitchen, maybe just the island like this picture below.

il y a 7 ansI would stay light as the table is quite big and a dark colour, but if you want to stay in trends, it seems that grey/purple is the 2017 paint colour.
Maybe a feature wall in the living area?

il y a 7 ansI had written a whole lot to each of you in my last post but it seems to have disappeared ☹
The brief response is I'd forgotten about my table runners. I will have to find them again or perhaps just buy a new one in a bright colour. I have two young chn and so while I'd love a rug underneath it's just not practical at the moment.
The table has been on the other side of the bench but we found it a bit cramped and it left a big empty space between the kitchen and the modular.
We have had our brother in law draw up some new kitchen designs and will go with something like this, possibly removing the window altogether. Add a pendant over the dining table and definitely change window dressing (they were in the house when we bought it and I've just been waiting to redo the kitchen before changing them) Thoughts? Colour schemes for cupboards benches etc?
