Mood board fun

14 years ago

Whoever mentioned Olioboard I should curse! I should be working but since finding this fun program I'm playing. I think I've figured out the TKO acronym- totally kitchen obsessed. Is that right? If so I'm TKO!

We'll be updating our kitchen this year (not the remodel I had hoped but that's ok). It's a 13x14 space with a large 75"x80" window in the eat-in space= lots of natural light. Since our cabinets are solid wood and in good condition I'm thinking of having them painted. I'll attach my mood board below. I'm wondering if this is too much gray? For the walls we're thinking BM Gray Wisp which is what we have in most of the house and love, cabinets would be BM Gettysburg Gray. I'll make a cafe curtain out of the red fabric for the window and other little punches of red here and there. I would also love to find some Fireking jadeite dishes to display but I'm wondering if that's too Christmas-y. Although red and green go so well together...

I love that the mood board instructions helped you. I was kind of of the minde that if they helped only one person it was worth it.

I like the gray, and don't think there's too much, but I also like color and think there's not enough of it. Those two things are probably mutually contradictory, but there you.

I had to look up an image of the Fireking Jadite, and I don't think the effect would be Christmasy, since the jadite isn't a very Christmasy green. But since you are having fun with mood boards, I think you should go snip an image of it and put it on the board and see how it looks. Do keep in mind when you make a mood board that you get the best picture of how it will look if the materials are in proportion to how they will appear in the kitchen-so your jadite and red pot and fabric should be smaller than, say, your cabinet, floors and wall color.
