A Touch of Color

A very chic friend of mine is updating her house with touches that bring a fun, but sophisticated, touch to a traditional house. The house has hutches built into the walls, which so many would love to have. Antique glass doors open to roomy cabinets holding glassware and serving pieces. When I visited after the painter had visited I just loved the new soft gray on the walls and this fantastic deep turquoise that lined the backs of the cabinets, the island walls, and the exposed shelves under the sink.  By choosing just a few areas to add a punch of color, the whole room was given a new life.

What color would you pick for a quick update to your kitchen and where would you place it? Would love to hear your ideas in the comments section below.

A few more ways to accent a room:
A white room gets some pizazz from a bright blue wall
Paint the door! This soft pink is so precious in this room
Love this coral inspired wall paper on one wall or as a backing for shelves
A gorgeous burnt orange area rug  or One in bright blue
Throw a new case on your tired old pillows like this yellow chevron from Milk And Cookies
