Is it lunchtime yet?
I really really want a red kitchen.
But I know I am going to chicken out and get something more ummm...safe.
A red kitchen is sort of like a little red dress. Spend some money on the right accessories and you look chic and fabulous. But, do it wrong, and you just end up looking like a cheap you know what.
And I am on a cheap you know what budget.
Oh, and I don't cook either. But according to Flandria, not cooking is all the rage right now. Except her not cooking thing looks like a lot of work, what will all the julienning and pulping. I won't be doing any of that in my red kitchen.

The red kitchen looks like the perfect place for all your friends to stand around sipping their favorite drinks... in a fancy glass would look best.
i am also looking into remodelling to have a pink kitchen...Giro color and cycling frescos...not sure when but badly need one - kitchen was originally pink and had retro deco - hunny's grandmum's kitchen really...we still have her witch doll to fight off evil spirit hanging...not sure what that was about...so was her wig...oops going in tangent...
i've stationed the blender, juicer, food processor, espresso machine like an assembly line...i have to keep busy or else hunny will be in trouble...I am still entertained by this raw concept - it could fade but so far it's cool...what the heck!
or you could do like me, a beige kitchen with red accents???
and yes...the julienning, the slicing and dicing is a pain!
heck, who needs a kitchen anyway?
if you don't cook, and don't eat your leftovers you put in the fridge, just use the space for something else
like a disco dance room
okay...i am ready to boooogy...where's the strobes
Dang that's a bit strong. But if anyone could pull it off you can. I think...
VB, please stop giving marscat ideas about remodeling...I got corralled into getting a new shower curtain this weekend thanks to your remodeling posts...got the wrong kind and had to get another one yesterday...
I guess you can pull it off:
Disco Dance Room
Ippoc - here is some more inspiration for you. Hardly the disco dance floor though...
My kitchen remodel
i have an orange kitchen
and i don't cook
but i stack the mail on the counter
disco's reserved for the purple bedroom
red, orange, purple...
hmmm very metro-retro...
and will people stop giving gin reasons to link again to his remodeling...
Did I link to remodel before here? Oops. Not trying to hijack this blog or anything. Just trying to provide some "inspiration" (or is that perspiration?)
Just in case you didn't see it before:
remodel blog (not kitchen remodel)
Off to go buy some plywood...
Thanks XBun for the perspiration.
we're very much into not cooking...
and that red kitchen is hot!
So is this work triangle thing I keep hearing about the flow between the margarita bar, disco ball, and chips and dip?
oh and nice work there Gin.
On the remodel too.
You did your own electrical? Thats wacky talk.
We're contracting everything out except the demo. Maybe we should have a demo party. A bring your own crow bar sort o deal.
with margaritas.
Its going to suck using the garage sink for dishes and stuff.
no drinking during the demo ... we might end up with an open air kitchen.
red.
red,red,red,red,red.
as VanderKitten would say ... naughty hotness.
Hell every other contractor out there is plastered when they do their work, so no worries with margaritas and demo - just make sure the electrical is turned off, okay?
No disco outfits though - make sure you wear jeans, gloves, and eye protection. Trust me, I'm a safety professional (oh and I have the scars to prove it).
i'm good at demo.
even have my own (very small) crow bar.
i'm even better at margaritas.

whadya mean you don't cook? you make de-licioso food!
ssshhhh...don't tell anyone.
life is too short to worry about the safeness of color...GO FOR IT!
With good appliances and accessories, it will look...Chillie HOT.
Just remember how great that blue bathroom turned out.
We painted our kitchen cupboards bright cherry red a couple of years ago and LOVE it! With the bright colors in the kitchen now, that room is now one of the very best to spend time in during the dark winter. Of course, super bright hallogen fixtures help, too.
Bubbye SAD!! (that's seasonal affective disorder)
Fight SAD!
With rocking red cabinets!
My mom is the only one who seems to hate the idea. That makes me like it all the more.
I love my blue bathroom
except that was a lot of work for a place that ended up being where the kitty poopies.
