I want to paint our kitchen...what color should the walls be if we have an ivy theme? Give me some advice ppls!

Green?

What do you mean by an ivy themed kitchen? Are you planning to stencil ivy leaves onto the wall? Or do you mean you have ivy growing in plant pots around your kitchen? Or ivy shapes on your cutlery?

I have fake ivy above the cabinets as well as ivy curtains and decor.

Well, green ivy tends to have a white background when used as decor, to give a crisp, clean look. What colour are your walls at the moment?

the are wallpapered...white with burgundy flowers...i hate it..lol

White glossy paint might be the answer. Or maybe very, very pale blue. Although it's hard to make recommendations without having seen your kitchen - you should ask some of your real life friends.

Purple

I agree with True. Purple would make the green stand out and offset the color.

Paneling from the 1950's seems appropriate. That's what we have and it's awesome!

Or...orange. That's where I would go..

Get some color samples and put the ivy next to it. The ivy needs to stand out on something less dominant. No intense colors. I agree with a nice clean white or a light blue.

If you have a smaller kitchen, go with a lighter color. Like an off-white/nude color or a minty green (of sorts).
Darker colors (like a wine color) can make certain spaces look smaller.

I'd go with a wine color. Darker red/purple-ish. If you have a more open kitchen, that is :)

lighter color (such as white) will brighten up the kitchen.

Lighter colours apparently also make a property sell faster, and for a better price, if you're considering selling it in the future!

You could do a google image search for 'ivy on white background', and then change the colour in the search to all the colours you're considering. But of course bear in mind that you are decorating a kitchen, not a webpage! ;D And also not a bedroom, or a living room - a kitchen is a place where you prepare (and possibly eat) food, so you want colours that will enhance that experience. And this will be quite personal to you. For instance, I personally like fresh, light, natural colours for a kitchen, because that somehow creates for me an atmosphere of light, healthy eating. I never like those black shiny kitchens - black and shiny always seems more about technology than food! And I wouldn't want a very stimulating or intense colour, because that could get overpowering, and detract from the food. But you have to think about what you personally are comfortable with, remembering you'll be surrounded by that colour while preparing food, and whatever else you do in your kitchen. Don't just randomly select a colour because someone has suggested it! ;D
