I am thinking about stripping paint off my kitchen cabinets but would it be easier just to paint. Right now they are white white with blue doors and it is not my cup off tea. Thinking a creamy off white on the whole thing or strip the paint but do not know how hard the would be. SO please give me some advice pleaseeeeeee!!

I would take them all off the hinges (don't forget to number them!), strip them, sand them, then prime & paint. It's more work, but in the end, it will totally be worth it! Anytime I haven't done all those steps for anything, it turns out as a disappointment :(.

So you are thinking a creamy off white is the best way to go.

I would do what Pam says and I think creamy off white sounds very nice.

Creamy off white sounds lovely. It would go with whatever colors you have for accents & is a nice neutral. You'd also be able to hide some smudges without having to scrub them all the time.
