Another aspect of farmhouse and country kitchens that makes them so unique is that they’re an overarching word for a style that has a couple of sub-styles within it. For example, modern farmhouse takes country charm and marries it with sleek lines and a more minimalistic approach to decor. You may also see concrete countertops and more metal pieces, like iron light fixtures. Rustic country kitchens, on the other hand, tend to have a lot of mismatched bowls scattered on open shelving, large farmhouse tables in place of kitchen islands, and more of a one-of-a-kind vibe where you know the pieces are curated specifically for that space and family. No matter which route you choose, you’ll have a kitchen that people want to be in.
Anyway, now that we’ve painted a picture for you, we want to dive deeper into country kitchen design and show you some of our favorite aspects of it. Whether you’re doing a full kitchen remodel or just trying to find color inspiration for the area above your cabinets, we’ve got an idea or two for you. Happy decorating!
You can either use a large wooden table as a kitchen island (we’re obsessed with this trend), or if you have the space, you can use one as a classic kitchen table. Extra points if you use mismatched chairs around it for a unique lived-in look.
Whether you add them over your island or have them dotted on the walls, there’s just something about hanging pots that makes a kitchen feel that much more cozy (not to mention functional)
