Can anyone advise on what colours will go nicely with cream kitchen units and wooden worktops? I was thinking sage green walls and white tiles for splash back? Not very creative so need some ideas Smile

I use Pinterest for inspiration, need a new kitchen myself but don’t know who to use, who’s still going to be in business etc., as for colours I’ll be going for the same as you, white tiles so I can change the paint colour rather than the tiles, at the moment I like farrow and Ball French Grey and Dulux Overtly Olive

We have just gone dark green from sage green (wood work tops, cream cabinets and tiled backsplash of the shades of green). Looks fab and a great up date from the sage.

I’d avoid a which splash back. It will look odd.

Have a look at maybe the sage green tiles with maybe a darker splash back in green

We did our kitchen last year. Off white units F&B Dimity. Our stove is sage green and our worktop is grey green. I had one wall papered in LA steel pussy willow the ceiling and two walls LA pale silver and the other wall LA eau de nil. It looks lovely and our friends think so too.

It funny because I kept seeing grey in magazines and didn’t like it. However it was the right choice for ours but we have LA Gosford in aubergine tulips when we change it.Not sure what we will paint it. Our splash back is off white tiles and bespoke patterned tiles with wildlife.

White tiles with grey grout and pale green walls would look lovely op. Have a look at F and B mizzle.

I've had a look at the colours posted and they're all lovely. I do really like the sage green. But don't like any other shade of green strangely! I just think it will compliment the cream units ? And was thinking about what other colour tiles to have and other than grey, which I don't want as the living room is grey (it will be slightly open plan to the kitchen) I only think white would go nicely

White with grey grout

I like the idea of grey grout as it will stop the grout looking dirty after a while! Metro tiles ?

They grey still looks dirty!

Mizzle looks very nice. What Dulux colour would be closest to it? (Can't afford f and b)

We were thinking the same.. Same colours cream counters, a medium to dark wood top.
Tried a really pale duck egg.. Came out like a bright baby blue which I hate so think we will do a paleish sage green like our bathroom and we have a couple of white walls too to brighten it up a bit

Grey grout doesn't look dirty imo. I've got white metro tiles with grey grout. You cn get any f and b shade copied in another brand.
