Ideas For Decorating A Kitchen Romantically

Red roses add a nice touch to a white or gold-accented kitchen.

Make your dream kitchen by adding romantic touches to it that inspire creative cooking ideas and a feeling of welcoming love between you and your special one. Add some simple red and pink accents, or start from scratch when working on your romantic kitchen.

Country Pink

Pink, while not necessarily usual for a kitchen, can convey a soft romantic look to the kitchen. Paint the cabinets and other wooden surface areas white. Use white bar stools and upholster the seats with a pink floral pattern. Use pink and gold accents throughout the kitchen. Buy or make pink lacy curtains to hang on the windows, frame romantic photos in gold frames with pink and white checked mattes, and tie pink scarves to the rungs of the stools. A crystal chandelier lighting fixture and leafy green potted plants with pink and white flowers complete the romantic look.

Bold and Red

Go for broke with two red walls, dark red hardwood floor and white and red area rugs. Find a heart-patterned or floral wallpaper to accent the room in the space above the stove and any little alcove spaces of the kitchen. Hang dreamy photos in white frames on one of the red walls in threes. Use black countertops and black figurines or knicknacks on black or white decorative shelves.

Understated

Try a less-bold palette to appeal to your romantic side while not going overboard. Keep the white or natural wood of the cabinets and black or natural surface tops. Add some romantic touches by putting white lace curtains at the windows, Italian oils and spices in decorative containers on the counter by the stove, a bowl of lemons on the island counter and vases of white and yellow roses around the room. Install a crystal chandelier in the center of the room.

Rounded Edges

Use rounded edges on all the corners of the room to soften the look of the romantic kitchen. Use a white, rounded sink, rounded countertops and rounded shelf edges. Install a kitchen plate holder where the plates sit upright and are slid into slots under a cabinet unit, so that you can see the symmetrical and rounded sides of the plates. Put a frilly pink valance at the windows with three draped scallops.
