8 years ago, daughter and I did kitchen walls in white and stenciled daisies with sunrays and umbrellas with raindrops. Also stenciled blue birdhouses with dusty pink roofs.
There is painted ivy in a sage color all around edges.
Cabinets are daffodil yellow w/white trim.
have medium blue lace and ruffled curtains and have med. blue/white checked accents with bees. Even used contac paper to do stove hood and canisters with blue/white check. Appliances are white.
All were skeptical when I told them what I wanted, now even after 8 years, everybody loves it.

Kitchen: pale blue and white - red accents. I've seen blue with yellow, too - kind of French country kitchen.

Dining room: gold and ivory

What about seasonal themes? They seem to sell well, especially for gifts.

My kitchen is mostly cobalt blue. there are so many vegie and fruit fabrics out there, maybe using some of those fabrics and maybe throwing in some of the coffee fabrics too would be popular. Good luck

My kitchen is done in a 40s and 50s retro theme so its mostly primary colors of red, yellow, blue and green. I know that red and white kitchens are particularly popular right now so that may be one idea for you.

My kitchen is medium plaid green/white wallpaper with chicken, cow boarder. Lots and lots of chicken and roosters sitting around. Also a chicken light in center of ceiling. I do love my chickens :wink: Also have a few sunflowers thrown in.

well, with all these different color/decorating schemes...i am curious to find out what sells the best for you. Maybe if you stick to sets of all solid, or all gingham etc. ppl could make them work with whatever they have.

Mine is a buttery cream on top and deep forest green below the wainscoting. My cabinets are whitewashed maple which makes them kind of dreamy looking.. I love my kitchen, but have to use care not to overdo with too many other oddball colors. I'm a color person.
