Hi all,
First time renovator here and the house is overall in pretty good condition so the majority of renovations at the moment will primarily be cosmetic but will hopefully also increase the overall rental yield down the track.
I really don't like the colour of the kitchen and the clash between the cupboards and the tiles. Bringing up the tiles would be a huge job and would still be not overly happy with the cupboards so looking to update the cupboards using White Knight Laminate Paint (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_nfB27o3WQ) Has anyone had any experience using this or tips/recommendations (including don't use it!!)
Now, what I'm not sure of is the colour I should be using. We've recently put in the blinds which are white as is the tile splashback and walls. I'm concerned if we do the cupboards white as well it will be overly white and hospital like.
I quite like the black as per the white knight youtube video but was really looking at getting an opinion on what others think?
Would also love to know people's thoughts on how to fit a dishwasher in?
I'll also post up a couple of photos of the other things we've done to date which includes:
- Polished floorboards and ripped up carpet in main bedroom
- Changed all curtains to venetian and block out blinds
- Side gate and gate added onto deck to keep the young bloke in!
