Updated Retro Kitchen

The ceiling and walls now boast a fresh coat of paint in a green shade that's a throwback to the colors of '50s and '60s appliances, but with a new kick. A new shelf in the corner where the toaster once was works double duty for holding various canisters on top and hanging pots and pans below. Painting the base of the cabinets chocolate brown helps ground the space, while the cabinets themselves get a neon shade to complement the wall color.
