I think different areas of the country probably would have different color schemes. If I were selling these items, I would check out my local freinds and family to see what colors they are using.


I live in the northeast and my kitchen scheme is blue, red with a touch of yellow.
In my dining room I tend to use navy, cranberry and cream.

Hope this helps.

My kitchen is white with yellow curtains, and strawberry and pineapple ceramic hangings under the cabinets. On the ceiling beams I hung a strawberry border that has white, green, yellow and red. On the ceiling is a trellis wallpaper in what I call garden green. In looking at HGTV many kitchens are Tuscony inspired - golden yellows or if more modern teal, lots of chrome sometimes with red accents or bold yellow accents. Hope this helps.

Candlelight yellow. There's no comparison between what's available at most stores and home made quilted items. Good luck!

ours is kind of a cement color - with white cabinets

Hi,

My kitchen has some navy blue and burgundy wall paper and my theme is apples.....has wallpaper right now, but soon (I hope!) to be gone! I do tans with accents of navy and apples.

I like yellow in the kitchen also and most anything will go with it. Would you be interested in sharing some of your placemat patterns? I have one pattern that I like but would like to have a couple more. I don't like making the same thing twice. I want to make some to be used as raffle items at a couple of organizations that I belong to.

Thanks....Judyjo

Mine is white, but have barn red accents. Covered chicken candy dishes decorate the top of my cabinets and have lots of chicken and farm animal table runners and table cloths that I have made.

Mine is purple with gray/black accents.

I have done those for crafts shows. Why not also do some based on upcoming holidays-- St. Pat's day & Easter. Also Apple theme is good in our area. Good luck!

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 decor is apples. Greens, Reds, white, ecrue

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 a light cream and rusty red with black accents

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.
