Remember my post about distressing a kitchen island? Check it out here to refresh your memory. I really loved the look of this. Seriously I did. I just didn't feel like it went with my kitchen. First of all my cabinets are cream and I painted the island white. Didn't think that meshed well together. Also, I think it was distressed a bit too much for my taste. Maybe I'm not as "vintage" as I thought I was. There is a thin line between impressive and oh crap what did you do to your furniture. You feel me on this?? So my island went from red, to white and distressed, to a blue glaze, and FINALLY a lovely cream. So here is the evolution of my island. (don't have a pic of the island being blue, but believe me my kitchen looked like Smurfettes home for about an hour).

My choice is A. I think it looks lovely as is and looks amazing with the rest of your kitchen(what I can see in the background).
I think A also- simply because the rest of the kitchen looks so clean and sharp. What does your hubby think?
I love it cream it looks soo nice!!!
Thanks! I think A is probably the best choice too!
I think you should probably leave it as it is. It looks absolutely gorgeous. You can always re-do it again later if it's really making you nuts, but I think it's gorj the way it is.
Beautiful!!
i think i liked it best when it was distressed!!! the kitchen is beautiful either way! happy weekend!!xo
I vote for A as well. Thanks for sharing, I'm a new follower.
A glaze would be good. It bring out the details without being overly stressed. You wipe off as little or as much as you want. Otherwise it looks good, although I'm partial to the red since that is a color I'm decorating with these days.
