Beautiful kitchens have been on my mind a lot lately. Maybe its because I can’t do anything with mine . . . it’s a rental. I politely asked my super to ask management if I could paint our cabinets (they would be done professionally at my boyfriend’s carpentry shop). Right now they’re that heinous oak wood finish that’s peeling from water damage. I was thinking a nice white or light grey would look beautiful with the white tiled backsplash and the white appliances. But no, the only thing they said I could do to ‘fix’ the water damage would be to paint them the same color brown as the current wood. VOMIT. So with the kitchen fresh on my mind I have been attracted to beautiful kitchens lately. Here are a few that inspire me, you can thank Lonny for many of these. I especially love the one that is in the latest issue of Elle Decor – which is fabulous this month! please note: Elle kitchen will be coming soon!

This is exactly what I would like to go for in my small kitchen . . . but no.

Does anyone else see a trend in my taste? Subway tiles, white or light cabinets with contrasting countertops.
Well I adore your inspiration ( I’m a white cabinet girl myself, love the grey too! ) So sorry they won’t let you paint.. why would they not want to raise the value.. bummer. Maybe they will come around! xx
