[quote=Anonymous]Another approach to consider. Replace the counters with something marble or marble like. Remove all the uppers on the sink side and put glass doors on either side of the range. Put sconces on either side of the sink, then a large mirror on the sink side wall furthest from the range with another sconce flanking it. (Rejuvenation is pricey--you can find acceptable, cheaper sconces on sites like lampsplus.) You would not paint the cabinets in this approach. For flooring, I would not change, particularly if it runs into the adjoining room--you need continuity in the floor stain. If you really want a lighter color, I would suggest changing the flooring to another material like tile. Also, whatever you do, don't do grey stain on the floors, this trend has ended in favor of more natural floor stains.[/quote]
