Brown kitchen cabinets - color suggestions?

One, I am out of money....

We just had really nice dark brown hardwood floors installed.

Since then my lighter colored, vineer cabinet that are med dark brown stick out like a sore thumb!

A friend suggested changing the light yellow walls so that the color does'nt complement the cabinets so much.

I am thinking of going with a steel blue gray and eventually we will get new cabinets that are white with silver back splash.

I guess I am stuck on a wall color. The kitchen is long and large. You walk in off the main enrty hall. On either side is a playroom that is sunken and a dinning area.

The playroom is white with a half wall and the dinning is a dusty green color with black furnishings.

I like to "look through" rooms to see the next rooms color and I am not sure that this will be complementary.


We have had to spend a lot of money fixing mold issues in the house. This is the last room that we need to finish and I would like to change it to something that I can deal for the time being until we can afford to redo the counters and cabinets.

Any suggestions would be great!
