So long story short. The house I was going to buy fell through. The inspection resulted in a really old roof, an almost broken furnace and an old swamp cooler. The sellers refused to negotiate, so I decided to go another route. And can I just say I am SOOO happy I did? I found another house for the same price, built the same year - with even cuter appeal!!! But - it needs some cosmetic love. Which I am more than excited to do. I don't close on the house for another week, but the inspection and all went well. I am chomping at the bit to get my hands on my new found treasure so I can make it mine.
Here is the kitchen. Really white. White walls, white cupboards and white-ish floor.
If YOU were going to re-do this kitchen, what changes would you make?

Is that floor real tile?
Okay - first i would live in it for a while before i made big changes, so you can see what you really want to do. But at first glance, I would say paint the white walls. Window treatments. Then see how it looks.
Actually, I would paint the cupboards, myself. Window treatment, of course. I would also paint one or two of the walls, but not all of them. I love that you have a place! SO jealous!
I'd keep the white cupboards and replace the counter tops. I'd also put different handles on the cupboards. I love white kitchens.
I would leave the cupboards white. I would love a white kitchen. If I could paint my cupboards now I totally would. You can add any color. I think white looks so clean. I am so excited to see it.
I agree with Mich...live in it a little then decide. I like white cabinets, too.
Personally, I LOVE white kitchens... I had one in Mesa that I loved! You can add so much personality and snap with what ELSE you put in... Shiny brass, plants, pictures, table cloths, etc. With it white, you have a totally blank canvas to add the things you love and have them actually show up. Can't wait to see more pictures! Congrats!
Leave the cabinets white and pain the wall a mustard yellow color. like this http://www.myperfectcolor.com/PhotoDetails.asp?ShowDESC=N&ProductCode=MPC0018853
Then add black accents.
