Any pics of Navajo White?
I did a search and only found 1 pic but it was kind of hard to see.
We aren't redoing the kitchen for a WHILE (dh got carried away and basically gutted the rest of the house and we are redoing a bathroom and adding a bathroom so the kitchen has to wait ). The cabinets are in good condition so I don't mind....although I would like new appliances :)
Would Navajo White look OK or feel free to suggest another color. I am changing the hardware on the cabinets to a brushed silver which looks better...There will also be a different table and curtains and stuff....also I'm not too fond of the brick by the stove but what else can I do to it...paint it
Excuse the mess - we aren't living there while doing the work and it's a MESS Image Attachment(s):

Navajo White is going to be close to your cabinet color. I have it in my hallway (sorry - no photos - we're in the middle of construction right now) and it's actually more beige than white. Don't know if that's the look you're going for.

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
That's what I thought and why I wanted to see pics of it. It's hard to imagine just from the little card thingy.
Any other suggestions for color???

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
The doors of the cabinets are kind of like an off white, very light beige (they are not white). Yes, we will be leaving the wood up for now. I thought about painting it but I kind of like the wood color (it looks nicer in person) that's why I was thinking a kind of light color, or light beige....it's yellow now and I don't like it.

maybe a beige that is slightly lighter or darker than the cabs, its hard when using beiges together to make sure they don't clash. some have pink tones, some yellow, grey, so if you pick a beige in the same family either lighter or darker i think it will look nice. i like the wood too.

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
That's what I'm afraid of, them clashing....If I had to GUESS I would say they have more of a yellowy (don't think that's a word!) tone.

I know a big color for kitchens now is pumpkin (orange tone colors). My SIL and her mother both have it and it looks great.

I think a light green would look good like a melon green.

I think a nice light yellow would look nice...it will give warmth to the kitchen and it go well with the color of the cabinets.....

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
Thank you all! I would love to do orange but DH said no way (little does he know that when we redo the kitchen I plan on orange ) and in reality the wood has an orange tint to it so that's why I like it. Have lots of thinking to do

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
I would be careful of painting the walls too light, the cabinets might look dirty up against white walls. just a thought.

Re: Any pics of Navajo White?
We have navajo white in our living room. This isn't a great pic, but you can see it compared to the white ceiling. It is a very light cream.
