Decorate Your Kitchen With Wooden Furniture And Galvanized Metal Kitchenware
Are you doing some minor redecorating in your kitchen? Maybe you have been looking through catalogs to get ideas for your redecorating project. You have probably been intrigued at how popular the country look is. Part of the charm of those country kitchens is probably found in combining wooden furniture with galvanized metal kitchenware. Read on for some ideas on how you can create the look you want for your own kitchen.
Focus On Just Two Colors - Think of how pretty your kitchen will look with only two colors. Those colors are red and the gray of galvanized metal kitchenware.
If you don't already have a red kitchen table, think of painting your existing wooden table barnyard red. Another good option is to buy a metal kitchen table and to choose red wooden high-backed chairs to go with it. Is your kitchen large enough to have a wooden hutch as part of the design? If so, paint it the same color of red. Red wooden rocking chairs won't just give you added seating space. They will also add interest to the kitchen. Extra-large nested galvanized barrels with wooden tops will be a good place to store your cookbooks and throws. Hand-paint red words on the barrels that have fun messages on them. "Family," "Home" and "Blessings" are just a few good choices for the hand-painted words.
Choose Galvanized Accessories - Try ordering some galvanized kitchenware to go with the red color scheme.
Choose a metal galvanized organizer caddy. Buy flatware with red handles to keep in it. A galvanized watering can will be a great vessel in which to keep your wooden spoons. Add light to your kitchen with a galvanized metal milk can–shaped lamp. Choose a red lampshade. Buy galvanized canisters with red lettering that indicates that things like flour, sugar, coffee and tea are inside the canisters. A matching metal bread box will make the set complete. If it is too plain, think of hand-stenciling a pretty design in red on the front of the bread box. A large metal wagon to hold two beverage dispensers will be great to have for entertaining friends and family members.
Complete the look of your kitchen with a large wooden frame for your wall. Choose one that has a galvanized pail as part of the design. Later, the pail might hold faux red geraniums in it. Maybe the frame will hold a blank message board. Don't forget to get red markers to use for writing messages.
