Yellow Kitchen Curtains

Being both the color of sunshine and golden apples, yellow is a very useful color in any shade when you are decorating, especially when you want to perk up your kitchen. Whether you choose a light lemon or a more robust gold, the base color of yellow will act as a way to brighten your space. Instead of overwhelming your room with a whole coat of yellow paint though, a more subtle way to bring this cheery look to your kitchen is to simply get yellow kitchen curtains.

If you choose cafe curtains for your kitchen, like those below, the light coming through the top of the windows acts as an additional boost of brightness during the day and the natural glow of the color yellow itself keeps the idea of sun streaming into your kitchen at night and even on cloudy or gloomy days.

Shade of Yellow

One of the major concerns that most people have with yellow curtains is creating too much brightness. That would actually only be the case if everything was yellow in your kitchen including the walls and doors of the cabinets. However, it is important to pick out the right shade of yellow for your new curtains, so that the rest of your kitchen does not clash, assuming you are not going for the same yellow all over which would make everyone feel like they were inside an egg yolk – not a good look!

Whether you choose a soft pale yellow shade like lemon meringue or more robust and deeper yellows with sunflower kitchen curtains, it only matters that you make sure whatever yellow you choose tones with the walls and cabinets. Use paint chips of various yellows and hold them against furniture and walls to make sure everything works before investing in curtains for your kitchen in the best yellow. Of course, if you have yet to paint the rest of the room, you can let your curtains take the lead in color choice but for most kitchens they are the last thing to be thought about and bought.

If you are concerned about the intense brightness sometimes associated with yellow look for the more toned down shades of yellow like maize or mustard, which still go with your kitchen, as you get the punch and cheeriness of yellow without the after bite of too much light.

Patterns

The next decision you need to make for your curtains is of course the pattern you want. Keeping to a solid color is always classy and elegant. To avoid being mundane with completely solid plain fabric, you will certainly want to look into embroidery or delicately cut out designs. However, do not be afraid to experiment with stripes or even floral designs. Yellow gingham kitchen curtains are a wise choice too and the gingham fabric can work well as a border on white curtains too. If you favor daisies you are certainly in luck as this flower looks great on multiple shades of yellow. If daisy kitchen curtains are not to your taste however, then perhaps the lovely chickens in the design above will tempt you.
