Compromise sucks, but you do what you gotta do

What do you do when you want sexy super-dark brown kitchen cabinets and your hubby wants not-so-sexy white cabinets?? Why, you have a battle to the death, of course!!

Hehehe!! No, not really — although that might have made the decision-making process easier!! ;-) What you do is compromise. And paint lots of samples on every available piece of cardboard. And then you patiently explain to your hubby why five colours that look exactly the same to him really aren’t.

So here are our finalists. The virtual colour chips are from myperfectcolor. They aren’t quite true-to-life, but you get the idea :-)

   

And the five contenders with the wall colour, Sherwin Williams Balanced Beige:

Here’s a shot of the countertop & backsplash…

So can you guess what colour we chose?? Leave a comment and let me know what your choice is. I’ll show you the sample door with the new cabinet colour as soon as we get it back!!

Meanwhile, hubby and I are back in our happy place and all is right with the world…
