Do you see mint chocolate chip? Or pistachio? Don't worry, we're giving you ice cream recipes that correspond to each kitchen, so the mouth watering isn't in vain.
We are complete flip floppers when it comes to the color we love most for a kitchen. Sometimes we want to paint our cabinets dark navy; other times we're all about bright and white. But if we based it on our favorite ice cream, we'd have a winner in a second (chocolate, thank you).
Looking through these kitchens just made us realize how many flavors and hues of ice cream there are. Our favorite may be the soft lavender that reminded us of Sara Kate's Blackberry Buttermilk Ice Cream- both a delicious step outside the lines.

Number two looks more like Neapolitan to me :) !
I love the pistachio/mint cabinets! I really like that curve they have on the bottom. I want to paint my cabinets but I also keep flip flopping on which color.
LOVE that first green kitchen!
The Baskin-Robbins of interior design? I wonder what the samples would consist of for kitchen interiors...
I'm a sucker for pink appliances. So the last sold me. Reminds me of strawberry frozen yoghurt (the arch nemisis for ice cream? At least I didn't say gelato...).
This post is all too appropriate, considering that the color I just chose for my kitchen cabinets is Benjamin Moore's vanilla ice cream. Soon I too will have an ice cream-inspired kitchen!
When I was little, my parents painted our living room / dining room and hallway the green of the first photo. It was horrible - everyone agreed it was a major color mistake. But, we moved shortly after so it was never fixed.
I had a kitchen we painted pink and I called it the Neapolitan kitchen because the floor was brown and the cupboards were off-white. The fun theme was the only reason I spent time in that kitchen, I think--the counters were far too low and the cupboards were of a stupid design. (I don't like saying it, but the whole little cottage was really bulldozer bait.)
I really love the green of the first one, that paint color is stunning. I love the cabinet shape in that kitchen as well.
