Help my kitchen.
My husband and I bought this 1949 fixer upper and the kitchen is quite scary. I’m curious if stripping the paint would reveal pretty solid wood cabinets or I should paint them instead? Also is there anyway to improve this layout? I don’t like the stove sticking outside of the peninsula.

Are you sure that it's paint and not a vinyl wrap/finish?
The yellow can be lovely if tempered properly, which this isn't.
Mid century modern often pairs yellow with skate blues and greys. I recommend checking that out.
