Kitchen Design: 9 Essentials for Any Farmhouse Kitchen

Enjoy the following pic ideas. Don't forget to leave us a quick comment below.

And please share this post within your social networks.

  • Homeowners are becoming increasingly interested in renovating individual rooms and relying on as many DIY projects as possible to do so. Kitchens are the heart of the home, and giving your kitchen a makeover can completely change the look and feel of your property.

    One timeless design aesthetic is the farmhouse kitchen--no, we don't mean plaid curtains and chicken-printed stoneware. We're talking about the modern farmhouse kitchen that is taking over the nation!

    Whether you're going all-in for a complete renovation or you simply want to bring in some new design elements to give your kitchen a farmhouse feel, you've come to the right place.

first “photo remodeling” idea

1: Open shelving

Notes:

  • Open shelving sets the scene for the modern farmhouse kitchen. When you opt for open shelves, you pay homage to style and practicality, something that every farmhouse kitchen is centered around. Use your open shelves for matching dish sets, canisters, and spices interspersed with quaint pieces of decor.
  • Open shelving not the most practical option for you? You can still achieve a similar aesthetic by replacing your cabinet doors with paned glass. In fact, some of our favorite farmhouse kitchens have a nice mix of both, as the glass-front cabinets really tap into the classic farmhouse aesthetic.

2: White paint

Notes:

  • One thing you’ll find in any modern farmhouse kitchen is a lot of light. Incorporating white paint into your design is a great way to capture as much light as possible, whether your kitchen is full of south-facing windows or filled with exposed-bulb lighting.
  • White walls are a great place to start. Even if you don’t have that classic barn wood look, painting your walls white will still give you that rustic feel. Plus, white walls make it simple to incorporate a monochromatic pop of color–light blue tile backsplash, anyone?
  • White ceilings, cabinetry, and even floors will really set the scene for your farmhouse kitchen.

3. Woven storage baskets

Notes:

  • When you’re creating a farmhouse look, you want to incorporate modern aesthetics with rustic or vintage touches. Using woven storage baskets is the perfect way to bring in that vintage feel while also amping up your practical storage.
  • Mix and match sizes and textures to get the best effect. Wide, shallow storage baskets are perfect for all those loose odds and ends that need a home. Deeper storage baskets can be used for cooking utensils, kitchen linens, and even cookbooks.

4: Mason jars

Notes:

  • Mason jars are an absolute must in any farmhouse kitchen and the good news is that they’re affordable–and you can find them just about anywhere! You can buy them in bulk online or in home goods stores. You can also go for a more eclectic feel by mixing and matching a variety of glass jars that you find in discount stores, thrift shops, and more.
  • Use mason jars to store all of your dried goods, from dried beans to dried pasta. Add a DIY touch by painting a square or oval on the front in chalkboard paint so you can label all of your ingredients.

5. Wooden countertops or butcher blocks

Notes:

  • A farmhouse kitchen needs to have countertops that are ready for just about anything. Whether you’re dicing up fresh vegetables from the garden or tenderizing meat, you want to have a surface that is easy to use and easy to clean.
  • Wooden countertops are the perfect solution and look absolutely beautiful. If you don’t have the budget to replace every countertop in your kitchen, consider using a large butcher block to cover your island or one large stretch of your counter.

sixth “photo remodeling” idea

6: White porcelain

Notes:

  • Once again, we’re here to tell you that white is the color of choice in any modern farmhouse kitchen. White dish sets are a great place to start. The best part about white dish sets is that they don’t have to be boring–as long as each piece is white, you can mix up your shapes and textures for a more eccentric vibe!
  • White porcelain accent pieces also add a nice touch. A vintage white porcelain milk jug, for example, looks gorgeous on any countertop or open shelf.

7. Iron accents

Notes:

  • Another element you’ll find in farmhouse kitchens is iron. Iron is not only durable but it’s aesthetically pleasing and looks great with wood, porcelain, and glass.
  • One cost-effective way to bring iron into your kitchen is to replace your run-of-the-mill cabinet pulls with iron cup pull handles. You can also purchase inexpensive iron shelving units for your mason jars and iron fixtures for your exposed-bulb lighting.

8. Fresh plants and greenery

Notes:

  • A farmhouse kitchen should be tidy, practical, and organized but it should also be full of life. Incorporate fresh plants and greenery into your farmhouse kitchen to bring that lively element.
  • Consider mixing the aesthetic (think vining plants, ferns, cut eucalyptus, and even succulents) with the useful (think herbs and other small potted edibles).
  • Some plants to consider for the farmhouse kitchen:

9. Most important of all: the farmhouse sink

Notes:

  • Finally, if you’re only going to make one major investmentf in your farmhouse kitchen, it should be the sink.

What you really want is the best fireclay farmhouse sink for your budget, which will tie the entire room together.
