I don’t know about you, but gray is my least favorite color. The trend of gray kitchens, gray barn wood flooring, gray countertops, and walls painted—wait for it—gray leaves me more depressed than I can describe. Add to the mix gray, dreary, rainy days and I would rather spend my time on a misty moor crying for Heathcliff than cook in a gray kitchen.
Whatever happened to sunny yellows, loving pinks, and gleeful greens? There is a school of thought which says color therapy can help improve our mood, increase awareness and energy, decrease stress, reduce anxiety and increase our productivity. True or not, opting for a little color in life, seems prudent.
What color will you add to your life?

I love yellow. Specially in the kitchen even if the counter tops are gray.

Yellow is my favorite color. Don’t get me wrong, gray has its place. I just don’t care for it when it is used to the exclusion of all other colors. 😜

It’s happening in my house, I call it the greyification of Frogpool (my house) kitchen was looking a bit tired so my wife painted it grey, looks better but I’m not sure if it’s any more cheerful which I guess is your point. It’s happening all over the house, carpets etc.

Oh, I’m afraid I would have to move out, or repaint. This house is avant -garde, the walls were painted gray 20 years ago. It is getting ready for a new coat of paint color called Haystack. 😊

We have bright pictures which helps, I think that’s the idea, the neutral industrial backdrop lightened by the rainbow shades of oil on canvas😉
