What color(s) is your kitchen?

Our is red and white only becuase that is what it was when we moved in. Our kitchen towels and mitts dont really follow a color scheme and our plates are a netural color.  I would repaint but just havent gotten around to it yet.

I have a bridal shower tomorrow and as I was looking at the registry the colors are brown and yellow, to be those colors belong in the toliet.  Why would you choose those colors together?

Re: What color(s) is your kitchen?

  • Our house as an open floor plan so our kitchen is the same as our great room and dining.  It's Baja by Behr - kind of a khaki color but at night it has a greenish tint.  We have sage and brown dish towels and mitts. 

     Is it a pretty color yellow - maybe like a mustard??  I could see that in a kitchen.  Funny you said it belongs in a toiltet that made me LOL.

  • Our kitchen is blue but that's strictly because the people who owned our house prior put in gray tile and used an almost black grout.  I've been seeing more and more kitchen stuff out that has yellows, browns and blues together.  Maybe that's what they're going for?
  • Nope not pretty brown and yellow.  The browns are chocolate or darker and the yellow is bright yellow, like the primary color yellow.

  • We have yet to paint our kitchen so it's the tan color it was painted when we moved in. Our plates are orange, yellow, and dark blue (almost navy) from fiestware (it's the light yellow not the bright one). Our drapes and decorations are orange and brown. We'd like to paint our walls a lighter yellow color eventually to brighten the room up.
  • Our kitchen is yellow but it is more is more towards a creamier yellow. Not pastel and not primary. It used to be a soft lime green which I loved but it clashed with our living room which is called Cajun Red (kind of a brick red).  Red and green are ok for Christmas but not so great at year round decor.

  • Yellow. Kind of a light-medium sunny creamy yellow.
  • sure, ask a hard question.

    We have some fugly wall paper-the cabs are a dark brown and the counters are the old Formica white with gold specs... I think the paper is beige-y.

    (sad that I don't notice considering my job)

  • Ours is red, black and white. Someday, I would love a house with concrete counters and a black & white tile backsplash!

    Brown & yellow is kind of 70s, but I think it could be tastefully pulled off. My friend's parents have the best 70s house ever - orange shag carpeting, "wood" paneling and a bright orange sink, it's hilarious! I can't believe they even made orange sinks!?

  • Ours is a pale sage color.  We have white appliances and cabinets, so the contrast is nice.  The colors were done by the previous owner, and we liked it well enough to leave it.

  • Since we have an apartment, we can't really paint much and we're stuck with white walls and cream generic-y 80-ish cupboards. Our theme though is chile peppers (not quite like the restaurant though)...our dishes are red and black, and our towels or red and white.
  • just saw this gem on craigslist. inspiration: check

  • This is my kitchen, brown and beige.  Booooring!!!!  image

    If I had it my way, I would do it mid century modern.  LIke stainless or concrete countertops, with the really high polished wood cabinets with the dark wood grain, or colored laquer cabinets.  This is waaayy too Southwestern for me. 

  • What is it that she has registered that are brown and yellow?  Or is it listed in a description?  Maybe she has other plans and is not planning on putting the stuff in the same room? 

     Who knows.

  • OUr kitchen walls are a sage green...We stained our cabinets mahogany

    I dont have accessories in the kitchen really...

  • We also have a very open floor plan.  The room is like a chocolatey color or so...our countertops match is well with white cabinets.  We have plain white plates and stainless steal appliances.  I don't like towels and stuff hanging around, so no towels or mitts! LOL

  • My kitchen is seafoam green and lemon yellow (straight out of 1941 when our tile was put in).  I'm going with it because it suits me and I love the combo.

     But brown and yellow?  I don't know about that, I guess I would have to see the kitchen first.  It MIGHT work.
