Kitchen Colors
What color should you paint your kitchen? Kitchen colors are very personal, and there’s a situation for every possible color, even black. Some ideas for coming up with kitchen color schemes:
- Choose a patterned fabric, and use the colors and proportions to guide your color scheme
- Look in your clothes closet, and base your kitchen paint ideas on the colors you most like to wear
- Collect kitchen pictures that you love, and look for a common color theme
- Browse kitchen decorating ideas magazines, books and websites, see which color schemes jump out at you
- Visit art galleries and consider the artwork as a series of possible color schemes, or use a favorite piece of art as a basis
- When you’re in a bookstore, look at the book covers as color schemes
Kitchen painting ideas can come from anywhere. Don’t forget that there’s no rule which says that all your walls, or all your cabinets, have to be the same color, nor that the ceiling has to be white, nor that the cabinet frames must be the same color as the doors and drawer fronts. Cabinet doors are perfect for color blocking, or imagine sets of drawers in graduated shades of the same color, from dark on the bottom to light on top.
