Kitchens

I am dying to re-do my kitchen.  Here are some of the spaces that are inspiring to me.

Someday this is what I want my kitchen to look like.

Perfect little breakfast space.

Cream cabinets and white subway tile.

The perfect use for old trophies.

Sarah Richardson uses an old crock for a kitchen towel hamper. Brilliant.

Instead of the upper cabinets on either side of my sink window, I would love to have shelves like these along with the full wall of subway tile.

I like that the kitchen is becoming a dining space too. Very Euro.

I mean really, the combination of sleek and rustic meet and shake hands in this kitchen.

Isn't this fun? I love the happy colored island. If you tire of yellow, it can easily be re-painted.

Stunning.

This kitchen has it all: Island for prep, and table for dining.

Isn't this a great idea? A sideboard as an island.

Huge kitchen with all the trimmings.

I am not typically fond of a galley kitchen, but this is superb.

I am in love with the floors and island.

Lovely colors and finishes.

Check out this historically inspired kitchen.

Such a wonderful contrast of grey and white.

This kitchen is genius.  Can't you imagine entertaining a small group of friends here in this kitchen/dining room?  Inky blue walls add such a feeling of romance as you cook and entertain at the same time.

Charming.

My Kitchen:

 There are things that I like about my kitchen:  It is light, bright and huge.  But there are lots of things that need to go:  The drab tile flooring, mis matched appliances, bad lighting and poorly installed counter top.

 Can't you just imagine how lovely this space could be?  I can.  But for now, I will just have to dream about it; and that's okay.  It will mean that much more to me when we get to do it.

This corner of the kitchen is screaming for a built-in banquet and oversize pendant.  I can just see it all!
