Brand new home, kitchen ideas? I just purchased a brand new home, and have always loved the idea of having a "wine themed" kitchen with the deep reds and whatnot. The new home I bought though has counter tops in the kitchen that are a teal green, which means that any red I put in will make my kitchen look too much like Christmas. I am not replacing the counter tops, as this is a brand new built home. Any suggestions on how to get the "wine theme" without it looking like Christmas? My cabinets are light oak colored and the floor is a large tile light beige color with all appliances being white.

Simple kitchen backsplash Ideas :New Countertops were Installed? Not sure if this is within your realm, but since you know plastering, maybe it is. In a rental unit I have, the tenants want me to replace the kitchen backsplash, since new countertops were installed. They have come up with this idea that the lady at the house there wants to tackle at her expense and labor. She has, or intends to buy, some glass type of stone, if you will.They are about a one inch circular stone with flat side to it. I have seen these in items like aquariums, vases with flowers, or just something you see people using for decoration in something. Anyway, shes real handy at projects and this is what she wants to do: The existing backsplash has a small 1x3 tile there now. She wants to, with each piece of those glasslike stones, dab a bit of glue to each one, glue it to the existing backsplash, at various areas, and then plaster over it all,wiping off excess plaster and making the stone deep set into the plaster, with only a bit of the stone protruding beyond the plaster. I almost like the idea of how it would look, however, Im not sure of two things. What glue to use and what type of plaster or material to cover this with. Is this something you can give me some idea on? Thanks

I just bought a new home - love the floor plan but not the kitchen. Need to remodel...any ideas? Hi, I just bought a new home - love the floor plan but not the kitchen. The previous owners have put granite floors, stone tiles for countertop, maple cabinets and white appliances. The ganite is black with brown spots like pattern - it is similar to the photos posted in the previous discussion named "Kitchens I have designed". The countertop is light brown with brown grout and the maple cabinets are the light colored kind. If you can imagine it - nothing goes together in the kitchen. I am not sure if I want to change the granite floors as that extends to the family room (open plan). Currently the walls are beige and I am planning on changing that to brown (not very dark but dark). What else should I change in the kitchen to make it look look beautiful? I am looking around in the forum and see very talented and creative people here - so, I am hoping to get some opinions about this. Please do let me know. I really appreciate it! Thank you!
