Give your kitchen a Christmas glow: 4 festive ideas to boost the holiday mood
The holiday feeling settles in one candle, treat bowl, and flower at a time! The kitchen is the perfect place to start, and with just a few simple tricks, you can add a festive feel to the heart of the home. Check out these inspiring photos!
1. Lights create ambiance
Festive abundance makes a home feel cozy. The showstopper in this warm, inviting kitchen is William Morris’s exuberant Pimpernel wallpaper, which is beautifully complemented by Frenchic Paint’s Green with Envy wall color. Together with the stunning wall hues, the colorful dishes on open shelves, a candle in a striking glass bottle, and twinkling decorative lights all enhance the kitchen’s cheerful Christmas vibe. Notice the impressive cutting board collection, too!
2. A star in the window
Ninni and Rafael are enthusiastic cooks who decided to invest in their kitchen. The solid wood cabinetry was custom-made. The antique green color suits their more-than-a-century-old log house beautifully. This timeless kitchen features a matching window star and candelabra. Herbs are planted in an old soup bowl, and the blue-and-white Davenport tableware is inherited from Rafael’s family.
3. A harmonious mix of old and new
Beautiful flowers on the counter delight not only the person doing the dishes but also bring a sweet ambiance. The hostess of this charming country-style kitchen decided to hang a towel blanket from her childhood home in front of the dishwasher: it creates a soothing look and adds to the nostalgic feel. The bold wallpaper is from Rusta.
4. Just the right touch of old-time charm
This delightful kitchen is full of eye candy. A DIY pantry is decorated with a lush wreath. Some of the lower cabinet doors were replaced with charming red-and-white checkered curtains. A mini spruce and hyacinths, along with old kitchen utensils, seamlessly fit the country-romantic style. A gently fragrant orange garland hangs on the wall.
