How to Decorate your New Kitchen

First, congratulations on your new kitchen! Now that it has either been bought or remodeled, you can do the fun part. Decorating! Time to give your new kitchen some personality and create a lively, homey kitchen! The kitchen is arguably the essential room in your home. Even though you have a large and comfortable living room, sunroom, or other rooms for entertaining, it seems as though people always end up congregating in the kitchen. After all, it is where the food is! I feel as though people like to be in the kitchen because it is where everything is happening. Food is being put in the oven, ingredients are being taken out of the fridge, and wine is poured into a guest’s glass. All these elements create a great ambiance that everyone wants to be a part of and never wants to leave. If you like to entertain, then I’m sure you agree with me, which is precisely why you need to spend time decorating your new kitchen.

1. Bar stools

If you have an island in your new kitchen, those bar stools are enough. They will make your kitchen look classy and allow people to feel comfortable. These stools are also great because, unlike chairs, they can be tucked in under the island, so if you are having a larger party, you don’t have to worry about guests stumbling over the legs of chairs or feeling like you need to place them in another room. Finally, although they are also great if you have a minor initiative dinner party, you and your guest can gather around the island and sit comfortably. Cute and affordable barstools can be ordered from Wayfair.

2. Coasters

I recommend decorating with cute coasters. Chances have you just spent a pretty penny on your new kitchen, and I bet you don’t want to spend money fixing a countertop. So, scatter coasters around your tabletop areas, or anywhere you do not wish to see a ring stain from someone’s beer bottle. You can make cute little stacks of them scattered around your kitchen, and not only will they save you a fortune from future repairs but they are also a fun way to decorate. Your guests will see that you have coasters and will opt to place one under their beverage. You can make or find custom coats that match your new kitchen perfectly with color scheme or initials, or you can find designed coasters to match your aesthetic or keep it simple with a solid color. You will find that these coasters have great functionality while also adding a pop of color to your kitchen. You can find coasters anywhere from Amazon, Etsy, Wayfair, and more. If you want to keep your new kitchen in perfect condition and reduce the amount of possible damage or accidents, I recommend decorating with coasters.

3. Candles

I always believe that it is a good idea to decorate your kitchen with candles. So many good quality and honestly stunning candles are perfect for decoration. I love the brand’s Jo Malone, Baobob, and The White Company, but there are plenty of candle brands out there with an abundance of scents to choose from and colors and designs. Having a couple of stunning candles in your kitchen will help bring color and make it feel more comfortable and homier. Decorating with candles also lets you eliminate some smells that linger in your kitchen, whether that be bacon from breakfast, salmon from dinner, or takeout. Sometimes you can’t just open a window to get the smell out, so instead, light one of these gorgeous candles that you have lying around your kitchen to eliminate the odor and have your kitchen smells beautiful in no time. You must also have the ideal candle collection to have a perfect new kitchen.

4. Bar Cart

Bar Carts are a fun way to bring more dimension to your new kitchen. You can place them in a corner or along your kitchen wall. This gives you more space for storage and decorating. It also allows you to display your cute drinking glasses and cocktail napkins and easily access your liquor. And if you don’t drink alcohol, I recommend still buying a bar cart because you can use it as a coffee cart. Display your coffee machine, mugs, and all the fixings to create the perfect cup of coffee. You can also use these carts for extra storage. You buy one that has cabinet doors; then, you can place extra dish towels, plates, cups, or anything else in them. If you believe in a cart with exposed shelving, you can decorate it with plants, flowers, cute small paintings, coffee books, and other décor. To have a fabulous new kitchen, I strongly recommend adding a bar or coffee cart to add more personality and functionality.

5. Plants and flowers

Having plants and flowers in your kitchen gives you the flexibility to keep changing your kitchen décor up. You can decorate with the most stunning flowers fit for every season. They will add life to your new kitchen as well as color. If you someone who can’t take care of a plant, then feels free to purchase a succulent or fake plant. This way, you don’t have to worry about watering and keeping a plant alive, but you still get to enjoy the aesthetic of having one in your kitchen. Flowers and plants look great as centerpieces on your kitchen table, or buy more small plants and place them on the windowsill by your sink. If you want a beautiful new kitchen that you will love, I highly recommend decorating with flowers and plants, alive or fake.

To decorate the perfect new kitchen, it is essential to complete the look and feel of this new space. So, incorporate bar stools, coasters, candles, bar or coffee carts, and plants or flowers. By decorating with these five items, your kitchen will be a spectacular room to enjoy, cook, and entertain. So, enjoy your new perfectly decorated kitchen!
