My Current project, looking for opinions
Permalink Closed

Okay so we have a older home in a somewhat historic area of our town. It has a very Tuscan contry-ish feel, think skinny oak plank floors. And one of the features I LOVE is this old built-in hutch. I am trying to keep the tuscan feel, the color throughout my home are as follows:

Kitchen- Navy/Cobalt and Sunflower yellow
Diningroom - Right now this is very neutral, lots of wood, and the new hutch in the pics
Livingroon - Olive-y and Khaki Sofa and Loveseat, Burgundy leather chair, Medium finish Armoire/entertainment center.

What do you think of me painting or wallpapering the back side of the hutch, something with khaki tones?

Here is the hutch. The plates are a mossy green, cinnimon color, light yellow, and then one with a stripe border of all the color and a skinny black line.




What do you think?

I also hope to add a table and chairs similar to these in the near future:

I think painting it khaki or even a soft golden yellow color would look great.  That is a really neat built in hutch.  I'd love to see pics of the rest of the house, it's sounds pretty.  And what a perfect time to be moving, when you're feeling all nesty

Sounds like you have a very warm, pretty house.  I think a khaki color would be a great choice for the back of the hutch -- the contrast with your colorful plates will really make them pop!
