Red Kitchen and Empty Wall Space
My husband and I just recently painted our kitchen red. We have white cabinets and black appliances. Our dilemma is this wall...it's BIG and empty. We thought about a picture but because the wall is so big, we are afraid it would be swallowed. Any ideas?

I would consider probably 3 images 18"x12" (portrait orientation with simple black frames and white matting.

If you want to have a little more fun and add some "risk" to the project ... buy a flat, inexpensive mirror, measure it, and paint a frame directly onto the wall in black larger than the mirror and add a little silver pattern or swirl or sponge etc. Once it dries simply apply the mirror to the wall.
I have done this before but sorry to say I didn't take a photo. What's the worse that can happen? You can always paint over it.
Have fun!
The color is Olympic Burnt Red from Lowes. It definitely had to grow on me. It's definitely fire engine red. We also have my office painted candy apple red and its more of a burgundy. Some of the names can be misleading.
At the right side a small blackboard with a little black table underneath it can be used for little one's artwork OR you can write your menu on it for a dinner party. Oh such fun to decorate!!
Just a thought.
