    Question What is your color/theme in your kitchen?

    I am in the process of changing mine to a Tuscan style.  I bought a new tablecloth and placemats last night and a new potholders and tea towels with Tuscan style grapes on them.  I want to paint a soft tea stain color and find a lovely border to go with the theme.  I plan on picking up my accessories a little at a time as I find them. 

    What is your kitchen done in?

    Mine was done in blues and whites, but since we insulated it, I haven't quite decided on what color to do it in this time. I would love reds and white, but I've read numerous times that the color red makes you want to eat more. I sure don't need that.

    Right now, mine is blues, greens, & yellows with sunflowers everywhere, but I was just talking with my MIL about switching over to the Tuscan style myself.....*ESPECIALLY* since I saw all of the awesome stuff offered by Homemaker's Idea ~ guess what I'll be buying when you get here Sis?!?!

    The HomeMaker's Idea does have wonderful Tuscan style accessories AND wall border! I sell it too!

    My own kitchen is done in Coca-Cola. Lots of red and white. I have a 1950's style chrome dinette, and lots of 1940's and 50's Coca-Cola advertising. I love it. I have red and white gingham curtains on the windows, and a 1950's replica payphone on the wall.

    Mine doesn't really have a theme as such but I do have a bunch of framed sayings on the walls that make me smile.

    Everyones kitchens sound so pretty. It is almost like taking a "tour of the village kitchens" . This is such a fun thread.

    Mine is a light taupe color on the walls with white trim. I was going for a "grapes/wine" theme, but haven't gotten very far.

    My walls are yellow, with white on the wood trims/doors and such. My curtains are floral (pansies) with butterflies.
