We're having matt white doors, medium bamboo worktop and going for pastel blue/green tiles! Very light ones!

These are lovely. Where are y'all getting your white gloss cabinets from? I'm about to do my third IKEA kitchen. Do I need encouraging to look elsewhere I really don't want to!

Mine is very similar to brewsters except we have plum suede paint on the walls. We don't have any tiles just the matching upstand to the worktop. I do however want some tiny iridescent mosaic tiles behind the hob and extractor. The tiles I've seen have a purple/petrol shine that will look good with the pump suede. I do want to change the plumb sick of the sight after 4 years but my hall, stairs and landing are all connected to my kitchen without one single door or door frame so it's all painted in as one.

My phone needs to decide if its plum, pump or plumb 😕 the other colour we have is white mist.. suede would obviously be too much on every wall in my kitchen, H, S+L

Kitchen looks beautiful Iwant

I have a kitchen dilemma too, I want to get a new one fitted this year but I'm stuck on tile colours. I want white gloss cupboards, black quartz worktop and I want my walls a light sage green. I'm not sure I want to get coloured tiles though, I want something pretty neutral so I can change the wall paint and kitchen accessories without having to change the tiles. Problem is I keep thinking black tiles might be too much because if I had say a black kettle with black worktop and tiles the kettle wouldn't really stand out would it, but if I had white tiles I keep thinking that'd be too much with the white cupboards. Sad I don't know what to do, it's been driving me mad because I don't want to make the wrong choice. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Our units were from howdens which we were happy with. We didn't look at ikea to be honest so not sure how they compare.

Tiles are from topps in their bathroom range?!? But we loved them and still do.

We extended our kitchen into other garage and it's been amazing, before we had a 30 year old kitchen that was falling apart.

Now we sorting out bathroom and I can't decide on tiles for there!!
