Calling It A Home With Country Kitchen DecorThere is often some confusion with country kitchen décor, as some seem to think that anything handmade can be used as an accent piece. While many items will fit into the setting, other items are going to turn out to be just plain ugly and have no place in your kitchen. Beginning with the walls, add your own photographs of the outdoors or replicas of metal signs relating to all things country. If you live in dairy country, old fashioned milk containers can be used as an umbrella stand and plants can be potted in metal tubs. Some people like chickens and roosters and small ceramic pieces can help accent a shadow box designed from an old wooden crate, fitting in nicely with your country kitchen décor. Coordinated Accent Pieces Add To The Effect Appliquéd towels that match throw rugs can add a nice tough to the area, but you will have to remind the family the towels are for show. Most of them do not hold up well after multiple washings. To add to your country kitchen décor, finding burner covers for your stove that match the towels and rugs can pull the entire design together to create one effect. If your kitchen is going to be decorated in strictly country fashion, you probably have a large wooden table. If not, a country-style table cloth can cover up the ills of the Formica tabletop until you can replace it. Seat cushions in traditional country colors can complete the country kitchen décor. In most kitchen the chair pads are tied to the back of spindles or ladder-back chairs with just enough of the tie left over to hanging teasingly. The curtains will wind up being the focal point and not only match the rest of the fabrics in the kitchen but should also be complimentary to the wall color. A table centerpiece of fresh in-season flowers sets off the country kitchen décor, and in its place during winter months can be bowls of artificial fruits or vegetables to remain part of the country charm. |
