Simplify

I have painted each room in my house. Each room that is except for the kitchen. I have put it off for lots of reasons but after reading online about how easy it was to paint kitchen cabinets I thought I was ready to tackle the kitchen. I think I already regret it. But I am so very tired of the knotty pine cabinets and white walls so here we go...

I started by taking e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g out of the cabinets and room and piled it in the already too small dining room :(

Since I thought I had already picked a color this was no problem. I was going to prime and paint and be done in a day. Then after I really thought about it I decided that painting the walls brown would not be the best idea. Unfortunately, this thought process took place after the kitchen looked like this:

Not only did I start second guessing my paint choice but the terrible tile floor started to stick out muchhhh more. There was only one thing for me to do... call my Uncle Bill! I'd like to say I sweet talked him but I think he was two steps ahead of me anyway and was already thinking about coming to Virginia (I'm sure because he misses me soooo much) anyway here are some beautiful kitchens I found while looking for a color to use... yes I am aware my kitchen will never look like these but it's nice to dream....
