I'd rather go light color. I collect stoneware bowls, and kitschy kitchen things from 50's and 60's. |
I'm not generally a fan of white walls, but white can sure look sharp with brown! Is that too blah for you though? Also, I always love a dusty, masculine, steely blue-gray w/ brown too (much more blue, than gray though).
Yellow may pop too, but it just depends on whether you could deal w/ a strong pop of color and whether yellow is your thing.
I'll show you a color, below, I used in my dining room and for my kitchen hearth - it's like a really soft/light pumpkin...it's a really relaxing/soothing color, I find. Would something like that suit you?
