I painted my screen door coral.. Do I need to ad more coral touches?

I painted my screen door coral and I have coral in my living room and dining rooms which connect to the kitchen but do I need to add a few more coral accents in the kitchen to tie it in?

    The best accent in your room is that adorable baby. But yes I would pull the eye a little farther than just the door. Don't overdo the coral but what if you paint that mirror that is turquoise now to coral above the counter near stove and spray paint those two basket to white to unify space and fool the eye to connect better with white cabinet.

    Coral and Turquoise together is one of my favorite combinations!! I notice that you have some small turquoise objects around the kitchen--like that mug on top of the stove, and something popping out of the tin sitting on the counter to the left of it? Maybe just a few small accents like that in a coral color sitting on the kitchen table or on the window sill over the sink? Just something small next to that bright green planter.

    Love the door and the accent it creates with the Aqua. Since you have coral throughout your home you may not need additional in the kitchen. Drapery or a window valance in fabric that has coral Aqua and white could add a fresh punch.

    Spray paint the teal mirror coral! For the fun of it, spray the body of the high chair too! Wahoo!

    Love it! Maybe a rug in a graphic contemporary geometric (flat, shut tie, kilim) w the lovely coral interwoven w white, or seat cushions in a pattern w coral.

    Many good suggestions here but I would limit additions to painting the high chair - or in future, some other accessory - coral. Any future accessory should have the same feminine curly feel as the door which is why I wouldn't paint the mirror frame coral. It's about yin and yang. Paint the Yin or curvy elements coral and leave the yang elements turquoise. If you were starting fresh, I'd do the opposite but now that you are committed my suggestion is to go with coral on a curly/curvy feminine element to complement the door.

    Very interesting concept Vickie. I will keep that in mind. Thank you.

    Another great space. Maybe a Maria Moss print on the wall would tie the space together. Maybe all three of these guys in white frames? I love them SO much and for under 20 for all three? They are bold and fearless but you are too. :)

    Suzanne, I am a bit confused are you jenfor sure on another account? If you are, I'm glad you like them. If not, I'm glad you like them.

    jenfor or Suzanne (maybe?) lol. I left Becky Harris a comment on you and your great Houzz. I asked her to check you out for a My Houzz article. I hope you don't mind. I just love your style.

    Love those ostriches !!! Especially the first one with all the colours!!

    That's my favorite too. Google Maria Moss artist and click on her etsy shop. She does more than just ostriches. She also lots of other cute and colorful critters but the ostriches are probably the most fun! :)

    Miranda Rose, I just have an account and it is under the name of suzanne_m. I am going to google Maria Moss too :)

    I do too! She is my new favorite. I found her on Houzz through this photo.Which I loved and then I saw the ostriches and fawns and hedgehogs and cows and giraffes! It is so adorable. Prints for 6-11 and originals for under 40-100 is unheard of. I like her more than artists works in the 1000s. Glad I could share my favorites with someone. :)
    Have a nice night.
