(12)Farmhouse Kitchen Ideas
Whether you're looking for a more traditional shabby chic farmhouse kitchen aesthetic or a more contemporary industrial look, Kohl's can help inspire you. Tackle small spaces and breakfast nooks with help from Kohl's selection of furniture and décor. Create a soothing space in creamy white tones or go dramatic with black farmhouse décor. Highlight your collection of well-seasoned cast iron skillets and pans with hanging racks and hooks. Update your kitchen's lighting with rubbed-bronze sconces, lantern-style pendant lights or rustic chandeliers hanging between those exposed beams. Make your pastoral mood board and start shopping for the items that will help make your country kitchen dream a reality. Kohl's farmhouse kitchen ideas are sure to spark your design creativity and get you on your way toward a cohesive, cozy look.
For the uninitiated, Farmhouse décor doesn’t mean you need to start tractor-shopping or looking to trade in your basset hound for a herd of goats. Farmhouse doesn't mean barnyard. Farmhouse is rustic. Warm. Homey. It combines the clean sleekness of modern design with traditional Americana aesthetics.
White Farmhouse Kitchen Ideas
White is a classic farmhouse décor color choice. From cream to paper white, you have lots of shades to choose from. Explore distressed white console tables and carts for extra kitchen storage that will blend into your white cabinets. Choose white linens that will blend in, or add a pop of color with a red checked tea towel draped over that apron-front sink. Add wooden signs that speak to family or faith for a rustic, traditional touch. Tongue-in-cheek rooster art or chicken-wire baskets add that barnyard aesthetic minus the mess. White farmhouse kitchen décor can be either warm or cool toned, perfect for blending with the rest of your home's color scheme. Either will be a soothing color palette with calm and rejuvenating energy, perfect for the hub of your home.
Farmhouse Décor Ideas for Small Kitchens
Small kitchens can still have big style. Use farmhouse kitchen storage baskets to maximize that space above the cabinets without looking cluttered. Explore galvanized steel shelving units to achieve an industrial farmhouse look. Storage benches in your breakfast nook can help store tablecloths, napkins and farmhouse servingware that you only use a few times each year. To help make a space feel more open, try distressed white mirrors. If you can't have a view of the garden out your kitchen window at least you can have a mirror that mimics window mullions above your sink. Mirrors help bounce light around a room and trick the eye into thinking that a space is more expansive than it really is.
Eat-In Farmhouse Style Kitchen Ideas
If your kitchen has a breakfast bar or nook (or if you'd like it to!) consider how you will incorporate this space into your overall farmhouse kitchen look. Use bench seating to maximize corner spaces: Kohl's has a great selection of benches and storage benches that will embody farmhouse chic. Round dining tables are often easier to maneuver around in tight spaces. Find gingham, burlap or linen-blend chair cushions to make your chairs more comfortable and in line with your farm-style kitchen. If you don't have room for a dining table consider adding a rustic wood kitchen island. With Kohl's selection of bar stools you can create a place to eat breakfast in the morning or for guests to keep you company as you cook up some chow. Consider galvanized counter stools for that industrial farmhouse look.
Farmhouse Kitchen Linens & Dinnerware
Don't forget to add the finishing touches to your farmhouse kitchen. Extend your motif to the dish towels, napkins, table cloths and the flatware and dishes you use. Set a stunning table with striped or checked farmhouse table linens and classic white dinnerware. Find charming water glasses to pair with casually chic wine glasses and be ready for any gathering. A vintage-esque white pitcher is a perfect accessory for parties or for holding rustic wooden utensils on the counter. Make sure you have all the serving bowls, platters and utensils you'll need for big gatherings or the holidays. Add a wreath of magnolia leaves as a centerpiece for that Southern country touch.
