​Sometimes, given their function, kitchens are overlooked as a space that can be decorated in the home.  But kitchens are the heart of the home and a gathering place for family and friends, so just like any other room in the house, they should reflect our personal style.  Every once in awhile I get the itch to move things around in my kitchen to give it a fresh feel and with a few, well-placed accessories and details you can give your kitchen a warm and inviting touch.

Stick with kitchen themed décor- Accessories and other décor in a kitchen feel more natural and less contrived when they are items that “make sense” for a kitchen, so be sure to give careful thought as to what you include.  Beautiful dishes, serving pieces, a display of cutting boards, trays, picture frames with quotes, or even a nice cookbook can all make beautiful displays in a kitchen with out feeling like they are out-of-place.
​
Keep things practical - It’s hard to keep the kitchen clean always, things get splashed with water or food and grease can build up on items.  As you select decorative accessories to include in the kitchen, be practical and look for items that can easily be cleaned or wiped down as part of your regular cleaning routine. 
 
The kitchen is where memories are made, so make sure your kitchen reflects your style and your family with the addition of a few well-placed accessories.  And don’t feel pressured to run out and buy something.  Instead, open up your cabinets and look at what you already have to see how you can incorporate it into a beautiful display!    "Get Inspired Today"
