Re: How much yellow is too much?

Both kitchen/ dining rooms are nice.

 

i don’t like the living room, mostly because it lacks color.  There is only bright yellow and cream....it needs something else color wise..perhaps a rug with more colors with a print or pattern.

 

I’d change out the rug and pillows...it’s too much yellow and lacking a third color for accent.

I love Yellow, and I love the 1st three pictures, the last one may be a bit too much. I also have a yellow kitchen, very soft yellow similar to picture #2.. It is a sunny, happy color, especially in a kitchen! I accented with some Red, not a lot but just a little very subtly.....

Hi @GingerPeach ..... I love to be home too, even if my home isn't as pretty as any of those pictured 😊.

 

I also love yellow and I would be happy with any of the rooms you featured.....except maybe the last one, only because I prefer soft yellow and classic furnishings, the last room is brighter yellow and more modern, just not my taste, but still nice.

I love yellow on walls.  Not the egg yolk as much as a soft buttercup tone.

 

I've had the egg yolk color in a kitchen with black and white tiled floors.

 

My neighbor has her livingroom painted a nice yellow and lots of blue and white porcelain accent peices and toile upholstery.

Re: How much yellow is just right?

I love yellow in a kitchen. The color comes and goes as far as style; always "in" for me.

My family room is Benjamin Moore's Philadelphia Cream, which with the natural light in that room is a soft shade of yellow. A very sunny room and color! Two walls of my kitchen that have no cabinets are a soft butter yellow.

 

Love black/ white/ yellow or gold, like photo #1. Photo #2 also very nice.

First two I like, the second two I don't. 

 

The kitchen with orange is off putting to me, and the brighter yellow of the last picture is just plain hard on the eyes.

I don’t like yellow anything. Walls, furniture, clothes, shoes etc. just not a fan. To bright and loud. I like muted and winter tones.

I love that first kitchen! Gorgeous.
In fact, I have two rooms with pale butter yellow walls: living room and a bedroom. Yellow is a happy color.
