typingmonkey Terrific collection! I love my green cabinets with butcher block countertops. 8 years and counting and not tired of them. Of course, 8 years and counting and I still haven't put on all the door pulls. Ah well. This gives me some ideas for a little refresh though.

2glenshouse I'm in the process of doing a new kitchen, south facing with 3 sides all windows. I'd like to do a dark purple accent wall and ceiling and the remaining walls green. I'm just having a problem finding the best of both colors. My cabinets are dark rustic Alderwood, dark slate floors and I've yet to pick the granite and marble counters. The view outside is all horsefields and woods. The greens you suggest all look good, so I'll be visitng the stores to get sample cards. Cheers

bubblyjock @ typingmonkey (great moniker!) - are your cabinets wood with a green stain, or two different shades of green and a clever paint effect finish, or? It's such a pleasing look, I'd love to know how you achieved it.

djts I have had these green cabinets for 12 years, along with the wood trimmed Formica counter top. The end trim and matching stained wood back splash makes it look more like real slate. I love this deep green with white porcelain knobs. We had the cabinets made - all solid birch - for less than any store. This kitchen is in our log home, and I like how they look against the pine walls and floor. Pine floors in the kitchen? Love them, too! I love the way the end run of the cabinets is angled in the second picture.

typingmonkey @bubblyjock -thanks! - they are Kraftmaid which I ordered through Home Depot years ago. They do have a really nice kind of patina effect rather than just solid color, but they came that way. It is a wood stain though.

pauli12 I almost went with cabinets about the color of the kitchen 5 up.. the cabinets, But I went with white. I still think I could have pulled it off.

Robin Seefahrt I have an ivory and green hoosier and plan on white cupboards probably and integrate more green on walls.

Dura Supreme Cabinetry I love green in the kitchen! The 4th image with the bright green kitchen with Dura Supreme Cabinetry is beautiful!

I also love the use of green on a kitchen island, like this craftsman kitchen...

If you aren't sure how long you'll love the color green, you could also try painting just the walls and use small decor pieces to tie it into the room like this Dura Supreme kitchen...

scherrie goettsch My kitchen has green accents. I inherited jadeite dishes from my mom years ago and gravitated towards using green as an accent color in my mostly "muslin-colored" kitchen with copper accents. A garden window in the kitchen is also a focal point that is filled with live greens. I'll attach a photo if I can figure out how to do so...

scherrie goettsch a kitchen garden window filled with plants/herbs adds more GREEN.

sharpmama I want to know everything about how you did your kitchen, typing monkey!! I absolutely love the warm, inviting and happy kitchen you have created! We must be soulmates!

eftwendy I intend to use green in my mudroom. The back door goes into the mudroom, past a large pantry then into the kitchen/dining room. I think a grayish green with some lighter celery yellow. I have a painted wooden candle holder as my inspiration piece. (Centerpiece at a cousin's wedding!) It's still at the stud stage.

GTF Construction Concepts I had a customer opt for Sage Green cabinets on a project. Due to the style of the rest of the home I must say I was a little skeptical at first. After the completion with neutral solid surface tops, glass tile splash and wood flooring it all came together.

embracegrace We have a green transitional kitchen. The walls are Sherwin Williams Oyster-Bay, a really pretty greyish-green that I find serene and calming. It looks great with our backsplash (Solistone Mardi Gras glass tile in Carrollton) and white quartz counters with recycled green glass and mirror (Hanstone Specchio White). You can read all about our kitchen here: http://www.dejongdreamhouse.com/2012/04/introducingour-dream-kitchen.html

embracegrace 2glenshouse, our house is all shades of purple, gray, and green. Our palette might be lighter than you are looking for (SW Oyster Bay and Sensuous Gray), but you might like deeper shades on those cards like Retreat (deep green) and Stunning Shade (deep purple)

cpfluegl I loved the idea of using green in our galley kitchen. We used an avocado green cabinet on the lower portion mixed with off white cabinets for the upper cabinets. On the walls we used two slightly different greens a darker version nder the molding and a lighter above.

embracegrace 2glenshouse, not sure why the last two colors didn't upload. Here you go:

Laurel Ennis There are two colour combinations that I'm sure I'll never warm to, green/turquoise and pink/red. They make my eyes sad.

wildturkey450 In two of the pictures it shows what looks to be real brick used behind a stove and backsplash behind a sink. Does one have to use half brick for this to work and how would one seal the brick so as not to get a shiny look? Or is there tile that mimics the texture of brick also without looking shiny?

bubblyjock @ wildturkey - sometimes if you click on a photo and it opens in a separate "page" you'll see that people have asked similar questions, and received answers from the OPs, for instance here's an answer that might help you:

Lourdes Fierro How would alligator alley green, work for the walls of kitchen and dinning room. Black flat rustic cabinets,dinning table. Stainless steel appliances and purple grapes and wine bottles as a contrast color.This is how I would like to do my kitchen.

missyme I am on my 2nd go-round with my elderly mother and her kitchen remodel. She cannot make a decision about anything. Nothing. All she can think about is color. Anyway, she went from wanting a yellow kitchen, to a light, barely there green, to an apple green kitchen, to a blue ... None of those are anywhere else in her whole house. See my frustration? So I told her she's getting a white kitchen and she can use any color she wants after it's done - in her dish towels, pot holders, window coverings. Will this ever be finished?

frenchdecor Nice designs, very welcoming, cozy and muted green makes them country looking. Only aqua fell off, but it's my personal feeling, can't connect this aqua with food, fire, wood (main kitchen ingredients).

Amy I use green accents in my kitchen... like the stools, vase, toaster (haha), pendant light. I also have a green rug, green shelves, a green painted door (inside - the outside is purple), and a white desk with green wallpaper on the drawers :) The second photo was before I got my new island/work table but it still shows part of the shelves and the desk area.

honeoyefalls We gutted the unworkable kitchen our house and made it fun and workable. I love purple and my husband loves green. I think the colors work great together.

JM Studio We used green in our kitchen renovation as a vibrant accent.

scurran52 I have a house built in 1932 so I didn't want to go for a modern looking restoration. I went with linoleum for my floor and used 2 shades of green. I also used green in the back splash utilizing green tiles with white in a checkerboard pattern. Finally, several of my light fixtures are ceramic green retro lights from Rejuvenation.

Denise VinWorrall We just painted over the panel in our kitchen "Herbal Green" from Behr! I love it. We have an old house an it blends in so well with the age of the home! Just waiting now for my cabinets and countertop. Can't wait till its all done! Again, I just love my green wall!!!

Janet Green My walls are green in my kitchen with maple cabinets and dark almost black green granite tops.

Criss Maereanu How about black tiles on the floor and lower half of the walls, black furniture & light green upper half of the walls?
