help me renovate my kitchen < 450,- euros

[Frieda]

and < 450,- means IKEA.. any specialists out there with good advice? my house is small, so i'd probably go for light colors, right?

i'm only replacing the doors for now, not the cabinets themselves.. i cannot use the cute window-doors because IKEA does 72 or 90cm and my upper cabinets are 59. shame. maybe when i get my taxes back. or maybe i should replace them now and do it anyway.......

the design-- i'm thinking ÄDEL white, maybe ÄDEL yellow-white, but that's the same color i have now.. maybe ABSTRAKT shiny white? but that might scratch easily! or maybe something else entirely? i have some 60-70's-look stuff so i'm probably going to work with rough sturdy metallic door handles like these.

my work surface and the floor (laminate) have this pattern:


so most of the wood doors would look weird.. and maybe too dark in my small living room. so what should i pick?? any suggestions??

thanks

I'm thinking sequins.

Purple ones.

[Frieda]

ahh brightpearl, how nice of you to offer to help sticking all these sequins on my kitchen doors

IKEA doesn't have bamboo so that's not an option.. would be cool though. they have a bamboo floor which i like very much. weathered grey.. hadn't thought about that.. hmmmm.....

gaaah! i'll take a picture of my kitchen/living room tonight when my camera's batteries are charged.. thanks for the ideas guys
