Color Schemes for Kitchen and Pantry ..' |
March as a month is rather a delusion and a snare to a lot of us isn’t!
it? Just as we think spring is about to arrive, and want to begin spring;
painting, it turns
cold suddenly and we-have the snow storm of the
year. But every month has a specialty and you'll find
your favorite newspaper full of news about house-
wares, china, and glass sales, so it’s wise to go over
your kitchen and pantry equipment, and turn your
mind to making these two rooms attractive as well
as efficient. For color schemes are just as important
here as anywhere else in the house, and there are
so many ways to follow a color theme. :
For instance, in either or both rooms, begin with
your linoleum floor. If you need a new one let it be
the base of your color scheme. If the one you have
is a block pattern, as so many are, with blue, red,
and yellow in it, you have a choice of white, pale blue,
or straw color for your walls. Your equipment is
probably white, so you can choose dark blue linoleum
with chromium edge for table and sink tops and red
for your accent color. This red can be used for the
inside of your cupboards, for canisters, for curtains, for the handles of
knives and forks, cutlery, etc. Other basic color schemes are: block pat-
terned linoleum in ivory, green, yellow and beige; walls, pale yellow;
woodwork, deep
{ yellow; counter,
tops, green; cur-
ains, white
edged with
i green. Or oyster
white linoleum
. with gray, red,
: and black design
and black cove
base; walls, pale
gray; woodwork,
! oyster white; in-
side of cupboards,
red; curtains,
i white with red
rickrack., Or:
linoleum in tones
of beige; walls,
and woodwork,

If you’re
buying curtains,
remember that
you can buy, by the yard, the same kind of rubberized fabric that is
used for shower curtains. It withstands kitchen wear and is easily wiped
off. These curtains you could make. Hem top and bottom and sew small
brass rings an inch apart at the top and hang on a brass rod. Close them
at night as you would overdraperies. Or you can buy or make the cottage
sets of thin cotton materials in a checked or figured material combined
with a solid color. These are called “double Dutch” in upholstery terms,
and may have the top open with the bottom closed, as shown in the illus-
tration. They add a lot to the homey feeling of the kitchen.
And what does all this decoration cost? Not very much. Our costs
today are in the actual equipment of range, refrigerator, and sink; and
even these come in units which are especially priced this month, In a.
small kitchen, 9 ft. by 15 ft., for instance, the painting (which you could
do yourself) would cost around $12 to $15. The linoleum, and it pays to
buy good grade and have it properly laid by being cemented to the floor
over felt, is on the high side, from about $22.50 to $37.50. In a new house,
the linoleum is probably laid as it is considered a flooring. Curtains might
vary from one dollar to two a pair. While canisters come at about $1.50
the set and up. So, depending on what you need, a remodeled color scheme
for the kitchen of linoleum, fresh paint, curtains, and canisters would be
about $37 to $57; without linoleum only $14.50 to $19.50.
