Farmhouse And Country Style Kitchens

If you are looking at creating a farmhouse style kitchen in your home, then you’ll need to pay special attention to the materials used to give it that rustic charm.

You might think a farmhouse-style kitchens can only be fitted in a larger property. Think again. There are plenty of features from a larger kitchen that can be recreated in a smaller room, and a quaint yet functional farmhouse kitchen gives the home a wonderfully cosy feel whilst being functional enough to cook, entertain and show off.

My Beautiful Kitchen will cover the best appliances, decorations and accessories for your farmhouse kitchen next week, including Aga cookers (as well as some smaller options), Le Crueset cookware and more. But here we just wanted to tell you about the style.

Hardwood units tend to work very well and usually a farmhouse or country kitchen is supplied as a bespoke kitchen that is made to fit your space perfectly.

We never tire of farmhouse décor, because it’s timeless and works well with a family lifestyle. Whether you have an outlook over fields or not, a farmhouse kitchen can really compliment any style home.

With warm hues in the wood, painted finishes that give united a hand-crafted feel and useful open, farmhouse kitchens really are the epitome of elegance.

It doesn’t matter on the size of your kitchen space or whether you can fit in that all-very impressive island unit. If you don’t have the space, you can always select a smaller butcher’s block; one that you can wheel around as you cook and then store away in a little space when it’s not in use is the perfect answer to awkward spaces.

Aside from the natural finish of wood, you could opt for cream, white, sage or duck egg coloured units with solid wood surfaces. Despite using wood, country and farmhouse kitchens give your space an open, light and airy feel.

Wide ceramic sinks, great sized family tables, island units or smaller butcher’s blocks complete the look.   Farmhouse kitchens usually make the best use of space that can be used to store the huge amount of things that you would use in cooking and entertaining.

The open shelves that are typically teamed with this style are perfect for storage – whether you are storing your cooking pots, decorating the shelving with your best crockery, or using them as somewhere as a handy place to store your cookery books.

If you have the room, think about buying a Welsh type dresser unit where you can show off your decorative pieces. In some cases, a farmhouse kitchen will be made up entirely of free-standing units.

Warm, homely and functional; the country kitchen compliments a traditional home, villa or cottage perfectly.
