Kitchen Inspiration

So our kitchen needs some love. When we moved into our home 3 years ago we painted the kitchen white for the 'meantime' until I could pick an appropriate colour etc etc....and now, well it's been 3 years. Now that my munchkins are big enough (and I have most of my braincells back) I can't WAIT to get my paint on. I have been surfing the web for inspiration for our upstairs for months now and this room is my inspiration for our upstairs. I found this awesome room on one of my favorite blogs jones design company.

I love this color palette

mmmm green

So then I was on a mission to find some fabric that I could use as a jumping off point. I thought I'd try order some samples from Fabric.com

 I ordered a pile of samples with success and decided on these

Swatches from Fabric.com

So The blue zigzag will be for drapes in the living room. 

The black and white damask will be for romans or valences in the kitchen.

The green geometric will be the jumping off point for accents in both rooms.

So my plan is to paint the kitchen the blue from the drapes for the living room. Once I get the fabric I can color match the blue for the kitchen. But the fabric is back ordered so I won't order until mid March. But I'm so excited! 

I could also do different accent colors if I get tired of the green...here are some I played with
