The Do's And Don'ts Of White Kitchens | How To Get It Right

Im renting an apt with a brand new kitchen. Thanks for your ideas

Wonderful video, so helpful 💞💞💞 My house is painted Dulux Lexicon Quarter, Vivid white for trimmings and blackbutt timber floors. I want to paint my kitchen white but not sure to go with my wall color or trimming color 😅 I don't want it to look too stark! I think vivid white might be too stark for the whole kitchen.

Thank you

I don’t like those shiny cabinets

Is there anyway you can find out what the name of the granite is in the second kitchen?

Doing an rv reno and needed advice about doing the kitchen with white and black. Your video was VERY helpful! I will be watching more of your videos!

white kitchens may not be as “trendy” right now but it’s timeless.

I’m wondering what type of granite was used in the second kitchen in the video? Love that look!

Very informative video . Thanks

White kitchens are out!

Grrrrreat!!

I am designing a kitchen now. This was VERY helpful~

Hi, I have found this video so helpful. I am working with this exact IKEA cabinet. I am wondering what the first countertop was which you used to show us how the undertones came together. The second example was Empira White. I am looking for a countertop twhich will work well with this cabinet and with walnut wood.

I have beige backsplash- mozaic tiles so can you suggest me if it will look if the kitchen is all white?

I'm working on a build that I had to decide on before it was there so I was unable to bring samples into the actual space. After many hours of reading and watching about whites, I realized the subway tile I was looking at was way too buttery for the cabinet so I decided to run the countertop up the wall as the backsplash for a seamless look. I lose the texture of the subway but at least I know the counter and the backsplash will match. Now my worry is that the cabinets are too cool for the walls (Sherwin Williams Pure White) but at least the walls are a lower LRV so the cabinets will be brighter. I'm just worried the wall might be a bit too warm. They had another white that is more stark (Sherwin Williams Extra White) but if it didn't match exactly, I felt it would like i tried to match and failed plus not sure if the whole room would have ended up much too stark. I will bring in texture with lighting fixtures, counter stools, and plants, etc. Thanks for an informative video!

Such great info! Thank you.

Love your enthusiasm! I’m almost finished my white kitchen reno and I love the white - white cabinets, white quartz countertop with subtle pattern and white shiny subway tile backsplash. Your video is so informative. Thanks so much and I just subscribed - I’ll see you again soon

I’m looking at your different design service option. Where are you located?

This video helps me out. I'm getting white cupboards, quartz countertop in soft white with gray veining. Leaning toward glossy white 4x12 subway tiles. I'm hung up on the color of the grout. Leaning towards a gray to bring out the veining in the quartz. What are your thoughts on grout?

Love your kitchen...what is the name of the floor you used?

Subway tiles, all white kitchen and open shelving? That is a trifecta of trends going out of style.

I’m curious of the countertop manufacturer and name of the countertop in kitchen one. The white countertop with subtle lines. We are currently in the process of renovating our kitchen and looking for a product like this. Thank you for the video.

Can you paint wood cabinets a high gloss color?

Well is it’s that important I’m subscribed and all that jazz.

Thanks!! Glad I found you. I didn’t know about the undertones. Im going to renovate my kitchen in March/April. I want white of course. Only thing I cannot change is the beige tile with a dark cinnamon grout. Now the beige tile has some white in it as well but a off white light cream color. I hope it all works. If in the end the floor tile just doesn’t work I can pull it up. My husband wants to do those long dark grey tiles that look like wood. It would be quite beautiful. We will see. My walls will be a yellow leaning towards a golden yellow color not a pastel yellow but a yellow like goldenrod or maize. Im 62, just retired at the end of 2021. Selling my home in Dallas, moving back into my home in Glendale Arizona. Gutting the kitchen and two bathrooms. I’ve hit the subscribe button.

Best white kitchen info of all I’ve watched!

Im buying a condo and I was sad that the cabinets were gloss white but after seeing your kitchen it gives me hope that I can do something nice 😊

Interesting, if I understand it's better to go with white countertops on a white kitchen with wood floors ?

What do you think about ceiling color? Should it be the exact same shade of white as the cabinets, or should it be the same color as the walls?

Very helpful tips! Thank you! ❤️🥰

Hi, great video, we are totally renovating our Florida condo and planning for a white kitchen, how can we contact you for design help?

@Iamloved Marisa Anderson, I am starting to renovate my kitchen. I have P&B All White Eggshell for my cabinets, white epoxy mable for my countertop. Any suggestions for backslash, anyone? I am thinking of using some kind of peel and stick material!

Your personal kitchen is more my style. It’s lovely

Love white!

Ty very helpful! As a beginner it's things u kind of knew, but to have someone spell it out of very nice! Especially when ur splurging on a new kitchen and ur so worried about messing it up! I'll definitely be scrolling thru ur videos to get educated before I bite the bullet!

HI, Marisa would you be willing to take a look at my kitchen plans and give me advice? I had a house fire so now I am updating my kitchen. I love my layout but I wasn't planning on this happening so I don't have a year or two to think and look at model homes for examples. I can't believe I've decided to go with a white kitchen. But it makes sense to me because it is easier to add different elements and colors in my home than wood cabinets.
thanks

So thought-provoking - thank you! In my 100+ year old house, the one kitchen object I must work around is a floor-ceiling natural wood, 3-door wide cabinet. It's original to the house.

that last thing is really what I need to do, thanks.

👍👍🌹🌹

I just watched Valentina from Atlanta..they say in the next few years Subway tile is going out. Oh noooo!

The tile/door/paint demonstration was great except the lighting wasn’t good enough to have the full impact.

Also, I have seen laminate cabinets in other homes and love the look. When I talked with my builder about them he said they are difficult to repair if there is any damage. What is your view on durability of laminate cabinets?

Beautiful Kitchen! In one of your video's you mentioned your black sink is iron? Is it made of iron or granite? I typed in iron but nothing made of iron came up. Do you remember what brand sink you got? Thanks in advance for your reply!

What is the name of your quartz? It looks gorgeous!

White kitchen looks bright and nice. But it gets dirty very easily, especially in a home of 6 people.

In the first kitchen is it a toned down gold cabinet door - drawer pull, with stainless sink and faucet with black and stainless appliances?
