1. Hang some art.

We are huge fans of art in the kitchen. Whether you have some blank walls, room to rest a frame directly on your counter, or even a giant gap between your upper cabinets and the ceiling, we say you should add some art! Framed stuff belongs in your kitchen just as much as it belongs in your dining or living room. The style is obviously up to you, but we do have some suggestions on where to look: Try Etsy (for prints that get mailed to you and digital downloads), Minted, and Society 6.

2. Add a rug.

A rug does so much for a kitchen: It covers an ugly floor, adds color, and makes for a cushier surface for your tired feet. We love the options at West Elm, Wayfair, and even Urban Outfitters, if we had to pick a few.

3. Paint something.

We’re not telling you to paint your kitchen cabinets. (While it is possible and makes a huge difference in your space, it’s not all that easy to do compared to the rest of the ideas on this list.) Instead, you should just paint something. A bump out! A single accent wall! The toe kick! Anything!

4. Add some wallpaper.

There are so many great peel-and-stick wallpapers these days—especially at Target. You can sort the options based on pattern (geometric, for example) or color (blue, gold, etc!) to find something perfect for your space. Want something extra subtle? This one is made to look just like white subway tiles!

5. Plug in a pendant light.

Don’t want to start dealing with electricity and circuit breakers? We totally get it! You can still add new lighting without messing with all that dangerous stuff. Home Depot offers plenty of pendant lights that get plugged into an outlet (just plug one in, swoop the cord, and hang from a hook in the ceiling). The home improvement store also has pendant conversion kits, which allow you to screw a pendant light wherever a recessed bulb would usually go.

6. Swap out your stools.

If you have an island in your kitchen, big change can come just by getting new bar stools (donate your old ones!). Some of our favorite sites for bar stools: Wayfair, World Market, and Industry West. We’re also huge fans of Amazon’s two private-label furniture brands, Rivet and Stone & Beam.

7. Get a colorful small appliance.

Small appliances are basically like throw pillows for your kitchen—only way more useful. Get a KitchenAid Stand Mixer in your favorite color, a cute coffee machine, or a pastel SMEG toaster, and leave it out on your countertop. As long as you look at or use the machine regularly, it’ll be worth the real estate it takes up.

8. Or even just a tea kettle.

Maybe you don’t need any new small appliances? Maybe you could use a new tea kettle, though? This one is a classic Le Creuset item (second only to the brand’s Dutch ovens) and comes in more than a dozen fun hues. Leave it out on your stove for a pop of color.

9. Hang new window treatments.

Did you know that Minted sells curtains? They do, and the options are as gorgeous as the stationery (because the patterns are made by a lot of the same artists!). Switch out your curtains in your breakfast nook for a fresh, new look.

10. Add a backsplash.

Once again, peel-and-stick technology comes through with the win: You can add a backsplash without having to deal with grout. Home Depot has a bunch of stick-on backsplash panels, which couldn’t be easier to install. We’re partial to these faux subway tiles, but could totally see a kitchen pulling off these marble hexagon tiles or these copper-like ones.

11.

Hang some shelves.

Even if you’re not a fan of the full-blown open shelving look in the kitchen (Tupperware has to hide somewhere!), we’re guessing you can handle (and love!) a few shelves. Not only do they add extra storage, but they also give you a space to add some decorative touches. And believe it or not, Urban Outfitters has some of the coolest and most unique shelves we’ve seen.

12. Install a new faucet.

If you shop for a faucet with the same specs as your existing one, you can easily swap it out without having to replace your sink or drill new holes in your countertop. You’ll be amazed at the difference a new faucet will make (looks-wise and when you’re washing dishes!).

Replacing your countertop is probably a bigger job than you realize. That’s where transformation kits, like this one, come in. They include everything you need (paint, little flecks, rollers, and directions!) to make your old countertop look like it’s fancy granite.

Plants make everything better. The easiest way to get a bunch? Shop them on Amazon. That’s right — Amazon sells plants (because, of course they do). For a kitchen, we recommend hearty options like Aloe Vera plants, Spider plants, and English Ivy.

16. Get a pretty organizer.

In the past, most of us would never put the words “pretty” and “organizer” together. There were things made for decoration and then there were things designed for function. That’s changing more and more. Take these organizers by YAMAZAKI home, for example. Each one is more beautiful than the last. We get that you have to store stuff in the kitchen — just do it in a stylish organizer and the space will look infinitely better.

17. Add under-cabinet lights.

Being able to see what you’re doing in your kitchen is, um, kind of key. Plus, lighting helps to add some ambiance, too. Enter: under-cabinet lights. They’re inexpensive and super easy to install. There are a few types, but we’re partial to these Wireless LED Puck Lights with Remote Control ($35 at Home Depot), which are battery-powered and mount with either screws or adhesive tape.

Ideas for decorating your kitchen: 34 original solutions

Over time, many of us have a desire to bring a fresh touch or bright color accent to the interior of our kitchen.

Now we're going to tell you about ten of today's most popular tricks to transform your home.

Many designers agree that the most effective way to change the surrounding space, to give it exclusivity, are decorative elements.

Pictures

Pictures in the kitchen is a classic wall decor that has not lost its relevance and popularity for several centuries. In some rooms, several small paintings will look original, while in others - one large one.

It is important not to overdo it, overloading the surrounding space, otherwise the effect of the decor will be just the opposite of what was expected. In the kitchens, pictures on the theme of food will look original: fruits, vegetables, berries, drinks.

Letters

Letters and inscriptions have been used as wall decor for quite some time. It can be used in any room.

In the kitchen you can create an unusual work apron. In the living room or corridor, you can decorate the wall with photos and brief comments on them.

In the nursery, this can be the alphabet, allowing the child to learn the letters. A touching inscription is ideal for a bedroom.

Mirror

This decoration option will not only add exclusivity to the design, but also allow you to visually expand the surrounding space. The brilliance of mirrors will ideally fit into every interior solution of the room.


They look especially original in the kitchen in the dining area, replacing a wall fragment.

A real highlight of the interior will be a mirror of an unusual shape or color. A snow-white kitchen in reflection will turn out to be pink, emerald, yellow or blue.

An interesting decor idea for the kitchen is a mirror with convex edges. You will see yourself in it only partially, but glare, sunbeams and a feeling of new things are guaranteed to appear in the kitchen.

One of the latest novelties is a designer mirror with bright multicolored patterns from Francis Mirrors. Small gradient pieces of the rainbow will create high spirits, and perhaps complement the color scheme of the interior.

If you place a mirror in the bedroom, then teach that, according to the rules of Feng Shui, sleeping people should not be reflected in it.

Decor objects

Various shelves can be used as exclusive decorative elements, on which you can place your own collages, photographs, porcelain collections.

Gypsum can be used to make intricate flowers and patterns and hang them on walls. Modern decor objects are easy to create on your own. Use your imagination and improvised materials.

Full wall photo

Modern full-wall photo-wallpapers can radically change any, even the most ordinary and standard interior solution, bringing originality and exclusivity into it.

Many designers prefer black and white images of cities, bridges, city streets. If the style of your room and color scheme allows, you can choose natural landscapes and floral motifs.

3D wallpaper

3D wallpaper is a great way to transform your kitchen and adjust its proportions. The idea is especially useful for a kitchen of small sizes or an elongated shape, where their ability to push back walls will come in handy.

It is not necessary to cover the entire wall with three-dimensional wallpaper - you can give them only a kitchen apron.

Chalk wallpaper

Chalk wallpaper came into fashion not so long ago, but has already won the recognition of many. Interior solutions based on them look naturally contrasting and lively.

If you paste them over part of the wall in the kitchen, you can write recipes on them, leave notes. Chalk wallpaper often began to be used in decorating children's rooms. With their help, parents create corners of creativity for the kids.

Decorative utensils

Wall decoration with Provence style plates will be a good option for classic, rustic or ethnic style kitchens. The main condition is the correct choice of the shape, size and color schemes of the plates.

Small saucers and large trays with original drawings and ornaments will allow you to create a composition that will become the main bright accent of your room.

If you are uneasy at the mere thought that a beautiful handmade item can fall and shatter at any moment, opt for plates made of wood or metal, at first glance indistinguishable from ceramic.

Wall clock

Stylish and unusual clock, selected in accordance with the given interior solution of the room, can become a bright decorative element in it.

They look original in neoclassical, art deco, modern, rustic, shabby chic, country, Provence style kitchens.

Houseplants

Houseplants in pots or stylized vases are a versatile decor. The presence of indoor plants is also approved by the teachings of Feng Shui, according to which modern kitchens lack one of the most important 5 elements - wood.

Small shelves on the slopes, the top bar of the kitchen set, shelving and open wall cabinets are suitable for the arrangement of flowerpots. If all the places are already taken, use hanging, wall or floor pots.

Some plants are even recommended for use in the kitchen. These are chlorophytum, saintpaulia, nolina, sansevieria, aspidistra - these and many other flowers will delight you with foliage, flowers and purify the air.

Nice little earthenware pots or modern glass florariums with parsley, arugula, basil, dill and onions are a delicious, vitamin and aesthetic decor for kitchens in rustic, and even more so in modern urban styles.

Mini tree

Special attention should be paid to dwarf trees - bonsai, which are liked not only by connoisseurs of Japanese culture.

Miniature birch, oak, spruce, pomegranate, maple or olive is a pleasure for aesthetes who do not look for easy ways, because caring for such beauty is quite difficult.

Decoupage

Decorating any kitchen surface with artistic painting will organically fit into many interior trends. These include country (Provence), shabby chic, simplecity, ethno and Victorian style. Delicate floral motifs will fill the kitchen with warmth, comfort and a fairy tale.

Useful decor

Some consider decor to be a dust collector and argue that everything should be useful. Do you know these? If it is useless to convince them, let the kitchen decor ideas be functional.

Chopping boards

This essential item in the kitchen can be a real work of art, while complementing the style and color scheme of the interior.

Wooden, plastic, glass cutting boards are enriched with the latest inventions to save space or weigh the product to be cut.

Note: there should be at least 4 cutting boards in the house - for fish, meat, raw and boiled vegetables and fruits.

Potholders

For pots, kettles and other hot metal utensils, you will definitely need potholders.

Round, square, irregular, butterflies, apples, pears, pumpkins or watermelons, they will protect your hands and please your eyes.

Note: Here is a good article on how to make your own potholders.

Coasters

The same hot dishes are rearranged from time to time on surfaces that you really don’t want to damage. Textile, wooden, bamboo or plastic coasters will save furniture from characteristic traces and serve as a decoration for the kitchen.

Textiles

Tablecloths, napkins, pelmets, curtains, chair mats – this textile ensemble sets the mood of the kitchen and fulfills practical purposes.

Small floral prints on a delicate background will suit rustic styles, fabrics with shiny monograms and fringes will suit classic ones. But checkered textiles are universal and will find application in absolutely opposite directions.

Curtains

Curtains tend to change the environment much more than you think. They occupy most of the wall and definitely affect the mood and atmosphere. You have 3 options:

Tiebacks, clips, fringes, ruffles or piping give familiar curtains a whole new look.

Curtains with photo printing are another element that refreshes the environment and is designed to become the main highlight of the interior. Moreover, the image is applied to any model of curtains.

Roller blinds, Roman blinds, cafe curtains, stained glass curtains - all of them are compact and free up the window sill for flowers, kitchen utensils or your beloved cat. Roman and roll models are versatile and fit modern and classic trends. The other two varieties will be more appropriate in soft romantic or rustic styles.

A miniature curtain-skirt will replace cabinet doors and play the role of a cozy decoration.

Lambrequin

If for one reason or another you decide to refuse curtains, but have not yet decided what to do with the cornice, decorate it with a lambrequin. This old palace disguise of cornices will add charm to both the window opening and the kitchen as a whole.

Lambrequin colors will complement furniture upholstery, kitchen backsplash, and other interior elements in creating color harmony.

Digital photo frame

The implementation of this kitchen decor idea involves the presence of two objects - a free socket and the device itself. With the role of the latter, the old iPad, which works only from the outlet, is quite correct.

Thanks to the photo slideshow, you will remember the pleasant moments of life more often. And if instead of a photo in the slideshow there are words with translation and voice acting, you will quickly master a foreign language.

Patchwork

Patchwork technique is becoming more and more popular and steadily expanding its positions. Today, patchwork is not only fabric sewn from scraps of different fabrics, but also a style of wall or floor ceramic tiles.

This kitchen idea gives you the opportunity to win three times, because you:

Patchwork textiles are a less drastic change that can make your kitchen colorful and avant-garde from time to time. Curtains, tablecloth, carpet, chair pads or towels - each of these details will make the interior brighter and more unusual.

The main thing in patchwork is not to overdo it, otherwise the room will be too colorful. This technique looks best against the background of monochrome interiors.

Artificial fruits

If the season for fresh fruits and vegetables is still far away, create a pleasant illusion for yourself with imitations made of wax, plastic or fabric with foam rubber.
But when the season is in full swing, they will be a good reminder to restock.

Figurines

Even a small thing brings its own energy into the room, and connoisseurs of figurines will agree with this. Each of them carries its own set of emotions and symbols.

Joy, abundance, grace, love - all this is combined in a ceramic, iron or glass thing.

If you are alien to the lyrical worldview, pay attention to a variety of piggy banks.

Masks

Wall masks do not have to look intimidating and repulsive, although they are in demand.

They can carry sophistication, femininity and whimsical forms.

Do you want to change your image every day or become your favorite movie character? Surround yourself with magical masks to help you transform!

Vinyl stickers

Vinyl stickers are one of the most accessible ways to transform a room and add personality to it today. Unusual silhouettes, recognizable drawings, various inscriptions can diversify any interior solutions.

Stickers are durable, affordable and easy to care for.

Decorative film

An even more compact "analogue" of curtains is window film, which is glued directly to the glass. Films are sunscreen, mirror, with photo printing, drawings or stained glass.

Compared to curtains, they do not take up any space at all, do not fade from the sun, maintain the microclimate of the room and protect the glass from damage.

A film with a three-dimensional image will replace a nondescript city landscape with an endless field or sea expanses.

Glazed furniture facades can also be pasted over with film.

Original lighting items

A designer chandelier, unusual lampshades, pendants or wall sconces will bring a completely new lighting, glare and, accordingly, mood to your kitchen.

Vase or jug ​​

A stylish designer vase, like a jug, is a beautiful and necessary item in every kitchen. How is it - a vase is not needed? Is that a reason not to give flowers? Where to put them then?

Wreath or garland

The hottest peppers, garlic, spices and dried fruits are the perfect material for useful, and even edible decor.

There is only one minus - not everyone likes to spoil the composition, tearing off details to add to dishes.

LED strip

A modern solution that is both decorative and energy saving.

You can place the LED strip anywhere - under the upper tier of the kitchen set to illuminate the work surface, along the perimeter of the floor, ceiling, mirror or sofa. Thanks to the color RGB lighting, you will choose the color of the evening kitchen lighting depending on your mood.

Carpet

There is no doubt that carpets make a room cozier and surprise with their colors and shapes. But will he be in the kitchen by the way? Sure if:

Art-Pin frame

What is also called express sculptor or 3-d-memory is essentially framed nails, which once again confirms the direct relationship between simplicity and genius. Why is it useful? In addition to imprints of absolutely any objects, you will test your knowledge of the language of generally accepted signs by exchanging messages with other family members.

Are you not going to get creative? Start small, because you have an ever-renewing canvas in front of you.

Plus, the art pin is a great educational, and most importantly, distracting object for the child, which will come in handy while you warm up his meal.

Music of the wind

Windmill Wooden or iron pipes, bells, feathers and other ringing and rustling objects that create one composition are also called a windmill. This is one of the symbols of Feng Shui, designed to protect the house and bring good luck. However, someone is inclined to believe that wind music has nothing to do with ancient Chinese teachings.

If you are a lover of oriental style or just melodic ringing and drafts that create it, this decor will be perfect for you. And for connoisseurs of the practical side of things, wind music, hung at the front door, will be a signal of the arrival of guests.

Original fittings

Even such a trifle as cabinet handles can decorate and radically transform the interior! Large beads or baby hairpins with flowers instead of boring, ordinary cabinet handles are a lovely decor that changes the look of the headset as a whole.

DIY

If you want to decorate your kitchen with a unique décor that you won't see anywhere else, do it yourself. Here are some kitchen ideas that can be done at home:

  • Self-made or painted wall plates.
  • Threaded bottles, vases, jars for tea and cereals.
