COLOR WATCH: A CORNFLOWER BLUE KITCHEN!

Kitchen with high vaulted ceilings, cornflower blue drawers and cabinets, wood floor, two nickle pendant lights,stainless appliances and an island with marble countertop

I like the color of this kitchen - it is not your usual brown or white cabinetry but it works! If I had a country house I might paint the cabinets a soothing soft cornflower blue. The high vaulted ceilings work for me too!

  1. Though this is a fresh look, cornflower blue does tend to take me back to the 70's, along with harvest gold and avocado green.

  2. Cornflower blue is such a pretty colour :-) I love the subtle purple undertone.

    The vaulted ceilings are fantastic and love the vent hood. The huge island is pretty great too :-)

  3. This is fabulous! The cornflower hue is subtle so it doesn't shout out at you - just hangs back being lovely.

  4. Wow. I don't think I would spend time in any other room of the house.

  5. Love Sherrill Canet's work - her book is (one of many) on my Christmas list. Love the vaulted ceiling - and I love cornflower blue - I think it works here because of all the light and space.

  9. You've found my dream kitchen!!!! That ceiling is amazing too!


    I was almost forgetting... Talking about "amazing", Heidi Klum and Seal just bought a new house in La. You need to take a look. I think you'd love the Italian rose gardens.

  10. Cornflower blue has always reminded me of a country farmhouse. It works well in this kitchen and stands out in a subtle way against the neutral walls and beautiful ceiling woodwork. I also like the use of different shades by putting a darker blue paint on the island cabinets.
