Kitchen accent color ideas?

I will try to keep this brief, as I tend to over-explain everything :)

 My kitchen is boring. I need a good accent color for some window treatments and a centerpiece.

Kitchen colors are all very neutral with hints of peach, and a little grey.  Cabinets are medium oak, pulls are gold (not my choices for the record).

Don't want green, I am bored with it (just switched a lot from green when we moved from our old house).  Don't want red/yellow/orange because I have a lot of those colors in other rooms.  Don't want neutral either because it needs some brightening in there.  

Any ideas for a good accent color or pattern?

Re: Kitchen accent color ideas?

  • What about swapping to bronze pulls and doing a few brownzy accent pieces (vase, art frames, etc?) If $ is an issue, stores like Home Depot sell spray paint metallics (oil rubbed bronze). Also Target sells 6 packs of hardware for decent prices.
  • Purple might work. What kind of style are you looking for? Modern, casual, classic, etc?
  • blue goes very well with grey and is a complimentary color to orange (which peach is in the family of), so i recommend finding a nice shade of blue that would work. I can't really recommend specifically w/o pix.
