The question now becomes, what do you want it to feel like? Warm and Cozy? Fun and whimsical (spelling?)? Classic? Thematical?
Too bad you already painted the back bedroom pumpkin. I keep wanting to try a pumpkin-colored kitchen. How about yellow? Ooh, my first apartment in SF had yellow walls with the cabinets painted a pumpkiny color. I loved it (it was more subtle than it sounds).
I can help paint! What day do you plan to do this?
Oranges, yellows, and reds are supposed to increase appetite, so perfect for a kitchen and nook. Blues and greens cool it somewhat. Are you going to paint the wood panelling? That answer might affect what colors you choose.
Trust Jenny. Her place looks like something out of a Pottery Barn catalog.
