Learn how to decorate your kitchen with chicken-themed items, with practical examples of how to combine different objects while keeping the space beautiful and free of excess.
Who has never seen chickens in home décor? It is common knowledge that this pattern is highly traditional and never goes out of style. The reason is simple: for a long time, it has made homes in every region of Brazil more cheerful and fun.
Of course, there is an endless variety of decorative items featuring the animal, but the ones we see most often generally include the guinea fowl. Native to Africa, it is popularly known in Brazil as pintada, guiné, galinhola, or angolinha.
Here, the animal that represents personal balance usually appears in black with white spots. But since there are no limits to how it can be used, it may also appear in other shades, especially red.
How can you include chickens in your décor?
Of all the rooms in your home, you can probably imagine which one pairs best with chicken-themed decorative items. That’s right, the kitchen is the perfect space for anyone who wants to include chickens in their décor.
That is precisely why there are so many items designed for this space featuring the traditional pattern. There are various types of tablecloths, dish towels, napkins, placemats, bag holders, cups, and more.
In addition to these, there are also other objects that are purely decorative and can make your kitchen even more beautiful. The main examples are wall art and crafts, perfect for hanging on walls or placing on surfaces.
Beware of excess
This tip is practically unanimous when it comes to décor. The truth is that because this pattern is a classic, there is a wide variety of objects featuring it. For this reason, it is important to be cautious when including chickens in your décor.

Try not to use several elements featuring the animal, to avoid excess and ensure that your space looks harmonious. For example, you could place a trio of chickens above the kitchen sink and use a rug featuring the animal on the floor. This model from Kapazi’s Slim Kasa line is an excellent option for the space. After all, in addition to having an incredible pattern, it is also slip-resistant and easy to wash.
Use colors that complement one another
One of the simplest ways to combine different decorative items is through color. When it comes to chickens in home décor, some shades are used more often, such as classic black and white. Red is also welcome in most cases.
However, this varies greatly depending on the pattern you are using. For example, if you chose a set like the one in the image above for your kitchen, the best way to combine it is to decorate with other objects featuring the same colors as the pattern. In this case, it would be a darker shade of red, beige, and gold.
Combine it with similar elements
In addition to colors, it is also important to consider the other elements that make up the pattern. For example, if you chose the slip-resistant rug from the Tropical Galinha Love collection, avoid combining it with pieces featuring other types of patterns.
Here, the best option is to choose solid-color pieces or ones that also feature a checkered pattern. And if the colors are the same as those of the rug, you can be sure that your combination will be a success.
