You never know what will catch someone's eye. It could be the scrappy look, the sophisticated look, or the whimsy look. I bought a potholder that had a picture of a camel on it. I have never thought about liking camels but that day I decided I liked them. :D

Mine was lime green up until a few weeks ago (a very fun color that became a bit too much for me when I was in wake up mode). Now it's painted a medium brown so I can use whatever color suits my fancy for accents. I've been gravitating towards "fun" colors. Bright limes, fushias, aqua, orange. They seem to be quite trendy right now.

My kitchen is done in red, white and blue. I have vintage wallcovering that has old fashioned water pumps, butter churns, flowers and butterflies. It is a creamy color with shades of brown for the items. I live in a rental so I'm stuck with it. I have red gingham curtains. I have blue cookware, blue and white dinnerware, and blue handled silverware. I have wicker baskets, watermelons, advertising tins, Depression glass, wire egg baskets and miniature quilts decorating the kitchen. My dining area and kitchen are combined. I use various themed table runners. Some of the themes are watermelons, cows, Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Easter, frogs and some are various colors of quilt blocks that I made into table runners. I use quilted, crocheted and knitted potholders and hot pads that I've made over the years.
I guess you could say that my kitchen/dining area is done with a Country Theme.

my kitchen is teal ice- a pale teal color. I wanted it like no one else's. I've been told it's very 80's so I've picked out "Atmospheric" a blue/grey color from Benjamin Moore. I saw it in a Pottery Barn catalog. It will go with my teal countertops and oak cabinets.
