All Things Kitchen

What is your favorite space in a home?

For me, it’s the Kitchen, where I currently spend a few hours each day creating food (that’s right, like a craft room), where W sits frequently when he works from home, and where a lot of wonderful memories and laughter are created with friends and family. It is the hub of our home.

I would love to have a brightly innovated, beautifully decorated, and cleverly organized kitchen. One that has lots and lots of windows. Natural light is huge for me and high on my wish list (which allow me to take better food photos). One that exhibits creativity, functionality, serenity, comfort-ability, and very much with a pop of color. Big square footage is a dream/wish, but not a must, because with some effects and designs, a visually large space could easily be achieved. This is my dream kitchen.

I have collected a stream of images (on my Pinterest board, Kitchen) that I would like to share with you and hope you could draw some inspirations in creating your own dream kitchen.

Love the light and crisp air in this kitchen. The high ceiling with exposed beams gives a lot of character to the space. But the animal legs chair might seem a bit too much for me.

The splash of color to a kitchen island is a great piece of furniture that offers working/eating space. And that roll-out baking island is a MUST-HAVE.

Something about these vintage appliances that I am in love with, perhaps it’s the non-boring color that brings harmonious and joy to the kitchen.

White cabinets all throughout the kitchen makes a small kitchen big, and brighten the entire space. The exposed cabinet doors and a plate rack to display dinnerware entice neatness.

A storage/cabinet to organize my collection of pretty bowls and plates, and better yet, makes it a glass door.

An inviting breakfast nook where I could do SO much…working, reading, pinteresting, blogging, eating of course, tea partying, etc.

A nice entertaining corner with a wine fridge, menu wall that could double as a dessert table and wine bar.

AH-ME-zing organized pantry. Need me to say more?

Perhaps a sliding door like this won’t hurt, right? It just makes an beautiful kitchen extraordinary.

Scattered minty colored chairs and walls to enhance the pop of color of our kitchen and always fresh flowers and food on the table.
