Warm and Inviting Kitchens that Make You Feel at Home

Coats of paint, once fresh, now chipped to reveal a shabby chic distress. Hand embroidered linens, vintage plates, wide wood floor boards and heritage furniture passed down through the generations. With a farm house flair, country-chic decor truly creates a welcoming ambiance. What better place than the kitchen, where we gather to create nourishing and life affirming food, to invite a true sense of warmth? One of the most notable themes of country chic decor is the sense of history. Time honored furniture, rustic relics, and family heirlooms accept the beautiful patina of age with grace. Re-purposed items like a milking stool as a side table, or a collection of platters as wall art add to the authentic feel of a country chic kitchen. Items themed around country life, including farm memorabilia, nostalgic items, and Mason jars are a pretty pairing with classic prints like plaid, lace, flowers and toiles, traditional woodwork, wicker and burlap. Enjoy these country chic kitchens for some inspiration on this timeless decor style.
