5 Bright Ideas for a Country Kitchen

Idea #1: Two-tone Cabinet Facades

There are three ways to realize this concept. First: find a company that produces kitchens in one style but different colors—these could be classic facades made from various wood types. Second: buy the upper or lower part from a store and build the rest yourself. Third: purchase unfinished facades and paint them yourself.

Idea #2: Crystal Chandelier

Elegant wrought-iron chandeliers never go out of style, especially crystal ones. You can find one in any antique shop, or even make it yourself. The key word here is "chandelier," not necessarily "crystal." But it should be luxurious, solemn, possibly gilded, to evoke a sense of grandeur and create the atmosphere of a medieval castle.

Idea #3: Plates on the Wall

To implement this idea, you’ll need to put in some effort, because while in previous cases you only needed to find one item, here you’ll need at least six or even eight. Arrange the plates facing any direction you prefer. Choose patterns carefully—opt for floral, Disney, Japanese, Arabic, or Moroccan themes. The last option is the most striking.

Idea #4: Play with Light

Using creative lighting ideas for the kitchen and dining area will help you create a specific mood—solemn, cheerful, or futuristic—exactly as you like.

Idea #5: Lantern Instead of Lamp

This delightful option is within reach for everyone. Lanterns can be grouped together, combining identical or different colors. For example, hang a few small purple ones in a corner, and one large lilac one above the table.
