Hello,

I have champagne oak cupboards and a soft blue counter top with a bit of white in it. I am not sure what to put on the floor or the walls. I bought oak flooring and think that it blends in too much and not sure what to put on the walls. If I change the flooring to ceramic tile, what color should the tile be and the walls to accent the cupboards. I also have a oak cabinet in the kitchen and a oak very light oak kitchen table. Ideas, please?

Thanks

I, myself, would go with an earth tone. Very light in color depending on countertops, appliances, as well as ajoining rooms.

My kitchen also has oak cabinets, oak wainscoting half way up the walls, and oak laminate flooring. The appliances are white.You did not mention the color of the countertops, and the paint should coordinate with those, as well as the adjoining room(s).
My counter tops are tomato red, the back splash is tile the same color. The walls and ceiling are painted a true white, then sponge painted tomato red over the white. It is bright without being overwhelming.
The next time I paint, it will be white ceiling and medium bright blue walls. Or I may wallpaper in a print with red,white and blue in it. I have found that one basic color scheme allows a number of variations.
The adjoining room is the dining room, and it is painted white with dark pine trim. The area rug in there matches the runner in the kitchen, having red and blue in the pattern. In summer, the rugs come up and the floors are bare. Ceiling fan/light fixtures are white in both rooms.
What ever you decide, enjoy your new kitchen.

I think the color you paint your kitchen would depend on the color of the adjoining room. You would want something to compliment that color or maybe a deeper shade of the same color. They say red stimulates the appetite. That might be a good color for your kitchen.
