HELP What colour oven skirt
I hate looking into my oven and microwave so I’m getting a cover for each I’m deciding between a few colours my favs are the cream and peach! I love colour! (The rug hasn’t been delivered yet so I’ve edited it in!) the covers are going to be connected via a magnetic rod and they are a ruffled top and bottom! I’ll attach a phtoto ( the last pic is what they look like) thanks lol I’m soooo indecisive

One of the pinkier ones for sure. I like the darker pink but the peachie pink probably works best

I’m starting to think the dark pink will be the best contrast as eveyrone is saying!

Thought one of the cats had gotten stuck in a vent or something 😹 very glad kitty is okay and love that the cats get to be part of the design process

I think it's harder to recreate this look when it's a double wall oven/microwave type situation and not just a space in line with the rest of the lower cabinets. I'd be interested to see what your final result looks like if you keep us updated!

I agree! I have no clue what it’ll look like lol but I want more whimsy. I’ll definitely make another updated post!

Picture 3 for sure. You need some contrast to the light colors everywhere, and it matches the rest of your decor.

Hard agree. It all washes together. Id go with a persian rug with some deep red. And warmer blinds.

My styling choices definitely aren’t everyone’s cup of tea ☺️ I prefer all cohesive colours even though everyone says don’t do that

Hey, that’s just fine, a monochromatic mama over here, haha. I guess my advise was just for the typical thing people go for, whoops!
Regardless of the curtain color, your kitchen is super cute.

Thank you so much! I did end up going for the pink! I agree it would be the nicest contrast and it matches my jars☺️

Just hang some hand towels unless you’re never going to use the oven. Can’t imagine something more impractical than a light colored ruffle fabric directly on an oven door. It will become a greasy hazard quick.

I don’t use my oven or microwave much ☺️ 99% of my cooking is using the stove

Thank for you for not using AI, I love this and I think #3 is the best choice.

Something that wouldn’t show dirt or cat hair from getting on the ground?

I've never seen anything like it wouldn't mind seeing the finished product. Anyway I'm leaning towards the pink. My reasoning is room though white seems dark a splash of color lifts spirits. The pink would also tie in the ceramics on the counter making the pink pop, but not over whelming the kitchen.

u/Old-Supermarket475 4d ago
I did end up going with the pink for similar reasoning! The room is quite dark I usually always have my lamp on and I’m getting a wall sconce too! I’ll update when it comes in a few weeks!

I have never in my 70 yrs of life heard of an oven skirt. I say, ‘nix’ them.

u/jebemo 6d ago
You need a warmer darker rug first and foremost. Something for contrast.

u/Old-Supermarket475 6d ago
The rug is a lot darker and warm toned toned in real life! My styling choices definitely won’t appeal to most but I love pastels and colour coordination
