Kitschy Kitchen


Want to have yourself a "kitschy kitchen"? Just do the following:
1. Think 60s and 70s...you know, avocado greens, lemon yellows. If you're really brave, paint your kitchen one of these bright colors and accentuate them with those funky colored appliances.
2. Get yourself some vintage accessories...cool canisters, a bright breadbox, some funky salt and pepper shakers and maybe even a, (gasp!!) fondue set!
3. Think themes! Sunflowers, geese, or some other fun theme that would make your kitchen really kitschy!
4. Don't forget the wonderful pot holders and oven mitts! They're decorative as well as useful.
5. Get yourself to a vintage shop, or antique shop, and find some really fun advertising signs. If those are too pricey, there are some shops that are now replicating some of the more popular signs for reasonable prices.
6. Kitchens used to be the 'heart of the home'...decorating your kitchen in a fun, kitschy style might be so inviting that it becomes the focal point of your home.
