I don't recommend it. Gonna peel

Hi @mjdpower, My suggestion is to go to a couple of floor specialist and ask as they may come up with something different. Whatever you do keep in consideration the size of the room and think on a long term: a poor quality finish could effect your property price in a space as important as the kitchen. I will try something that allow you to go back to your original tiles floor if things do not work out the way you want them to go. A cheap way is to cover the tiles with vinyl and here is how to do it: http://www.doityourself.com/stry/how-to-install-vinyl-flooring-over-ceramic-tiling#b the adhesive should not stain or damage the tiles (ask the manufacture before doing it anyway!) and you have a large choice of design and colours. Paint tiles could be another option, not my favourite but an option. I found this blog where Curry Kay describe step by step how she's did it. It's American USA but it will give you an idea to start with. https://currykay.wordpress.com/2011/03/01/powder-room-brand-new-floor-painting-tile-tutorial/comment-page-1/ Be aware that the kitchen is a high usage room so the paint will take a good bashing and may wear off. Plus the final look on a large surface like the kitchen area could be not as good as on a splash back or smaller vertical surface. I hope it helps! Have fun!

Do you have wood floors elsewhere if so use the wood in the kitchen too.

Hi Gilluan I think either could work but it depends on the layout of your new room. if there is a distinct divide between the two spaces then you can separate the floor coverings. It certainly makes the living area feel warmer and more cosy if you have wooden flooring in that space. Equally a tiled floor is far more practical in a kitchen. I hope that helps, it's difficult to offer any more advice without seeing your plans or a photograph. Good luck!
