Summer Color Trends for Your Kitchen (and How to Nail Them)

Hello, sunshine, where have you been? If you’re feeling an unquenchable ache for sunny skies and salty skin, we hear you; summer can’t come fast enough. But before those long, lazy days officially arrive, you can trick your kitchen into embracing the season—with a refreshing wave of color trends that blend nostalgia with modern sophistication. 

From soft pastels to bold jewel tones, this season's palette offers a spectrum of hues to invigorate your home, (almost) effortlessly. 

🌼 Butter Yellow: A Subtle Sunshine

Butter yellow will make a gentle yet impactful statement in kitchens this summer. This soft, creamy hue brings warmth and a touch of nostalgia, reminiscent of sunlit mornings and homemade pastries. Vogue highlights butter yellow as a top trend for Spring/Summer 2025, noting its ability to add a cheerful ambiance without overwhelming the space 

Our Soft Summer Sun Tea Towel embodies this trend beautifully. Its delicate yellow tones can brighten up your kitchen, complementing both modern and traditional decor.

🍒 Cherry Red: The Bold Accent

Cherry red brings a distinctive summery vibe to any space, and this year is no different. In fact, Behr's 2025 Color of the Year, "Rumors," is a dynamic ruby red that adds depth and sophistication. It’s a bold choice, but incorporating this color through accessories can invigorate your kitchen's aesthetic. 

The Sweet Cherry Tea Towel from Geometry House captures this lively shade, offering a pop of color that's both stylish and functional.

🌊 Crisp Blue: A Breath of Fresh Air

Crisp blue tones bring a refreshing, airy feel to kitchens this season. This color evokes the tranquility of clear skies and open seas, making spaces feel more expansive and serene. In fact, Vogue lists "Crisp Blue Cotton" among the top color trends for Spring/Summer 2025. 

Our Dashing Mint Tea Towel features a cool blue hue that can add a calming touch to your kitchen decor.

🍋 Citrus Tones: Zesty and Invigorating

Citrus-inspired colors like lemon and lime do exactly what you think they’d do: infuse your space with a zesty, invigorating vibe. These bright hues stimulate the senses and can make cooking spaces feel more lively and energetic. The trend towards fruit and vegetable motifs in decor further emphasizes this vibrant palette.

We’ve got a whole suite of towels embracing the trend:

• Summer Lemons: Featuring cheerful lemon patterns, this towel adds a sunny disposition to any kitchen.

• Summer Limes: With its lively lime design, it brings a fresh, tangy twist to your culinary space.

• Sunny Lemons and Oranges: Combining lemon and orange motifs, this towel offers a vibrant citrus medley.

🌿 Earthy Greens: Nature's Embrace

Earthy green tones ground kitchens in natural beauty, reflecting a growing desire for organic and sustainable living. From muted sage to deep forest hues, these colors bring a sense of calm and connection to nature. Country Living notes the popularity of earthy greens in kitchen cabinetry for 2025.

The Spotty Summer Tea Towel incorporates subtle green accents, allowing you to introduce this trend in a nuanced way.

🌸 Wispy Pink: Soft and Sophisticated

Itching for a delicate, sophisticated touch? This gentle hue adds warmth and elegance, creating an inviting atmosphere. Vogue includes "Wispy Pink" among the top color trends for Spring/Summer 2025.
