Farmhouse Style In My Kitchen

Wow!
Farmhouse style has really taken off, hasn't it?
I love it just as much as many of you out there.
One of the great things about it is that it's fairly easy to add 
to your decor and it can be relatively inexpensive too.

Here are a few recent finds for my kitchen that I
think give it a little more of that farmhouse feeling. 


Now this one is pretty obvious considering it has the word "FARM" right on it  : )
This came from a little shop I went to while we were on vacation 
and it really inspired me to add a few more farmhouse style accessories.



I have admired these vintage scales forever and I finally found one on Ebay 
that I thought would look great in my kitchen and was also a reasonable price.
Boy, some of them are really pricey!




Any good farmhouse has to have a rooster, right?
A quick little project I did was add blue grain sack stripes to
this white wooden rooster.
I think he is pretty proud of them!



Of course mason jars and pretty little flowers bring on the farmhouse vibe.


And not just mason jars, but almost any kind of jar.
This old Radish jar was a gift and I just love it - it goes perfectly
in my kitchen.


This little lamb was also a vacation purchase.
It's actually a Christmas ornament but I want to see him everyday.
Isn't that little face adorable?


So don't throw away those jelly jars and pickle jars.
They are perfect for silverware or other kitchen utensils.



Even a crisp linen towel (wrinkles and all) is a 
simple way to add that farmhouse feeling.


Old bowls, bread boards, wire baskets and old cook books from
thrift stores are just a few more items that can bring farmhouse style
to your kitchen.


So what do you think?
It's a style that is charming, cozy, relaxing and easy to work with.
Yep, I think it's going to be around for awhile and that's just fine with me.

Thanks a bunch for visiting!

  15. JoAnne, I love the farmhouse style and have brought a bit of it into my home both upstairs and down. I too have a love for vintage scales! I have been lucky to find three at a reasonable price. Some of them really are big bucks. Love all of your farmhouse touches! I have a thing for sheep as well. Thanks for sharing with SYC.

Blue Kitchen Cabinets 2017

I have done a couple posts on kitchens with blue cabinetry in the past, after all it is my favorite color. It has been awhile though, so today I have rounded up some more  amazing kitchens with cottage style that also incorporate blue in  the design. source The kitchen above and the one below have white upper cabinets and soft shades of blue on the lower ones. This is a nice way to use blue without going overboard or ending up with something that you would get tired of quickly. source source Finding the right shade of blue would be key and using a lot of white and wood tones along with it creates a beautiful and timeless look. source source Isn't the kitchen above just so very unique? It has sort of a french country feeling but in an updated way. Wish there was a better picture of the script that's on the wall  on the right. source This kitchen is from Remodelondo la Casa and I've always thought the w

AFFORDABLE WALL DECOR

Hi Everyone, One of the things I find the most difficult about decorating is finding wall decor that I like and is also affordable. That is one of the main things that I am always on the hunt for and sometimes I have to come up with some creative ideas. Just yesterday, I found this beautiful image of a  white hydrangea at The Graphics Fairy . The Graphics Fairy I printed it out in a size that would fit in a frame that  I already had.  I think it looks so pretty in the simple white frame. I'm probably going to hang it in our bedroom. I'm making a few small changes in there and I will show you when it's completed. This star is actually from the garden section of our local Meijer store.  It was originally silver metal and I spray painted it white. I have seen a lot of people decorate with bread boards. This one fit perfectly in the narrow space between my  cabinet and window and I love the warmth of the wood.  I love th

Family Room Reveal

Hello Everyone! I've been meaning to post about our updated family room for a very long time and I'm  finally doing it - yeah!! I had been ready to replace our brown leather furniture for a while and when a new Ikea opened very close to us last summer, I jumped at the chance to take a good look at their slipcovered furniture. Originally the plan was to buy another sofa and loveseat like we had but when I  saw the Ektorp sectional on the showroom floor at Ikea, I was sold.   It just seemed so cozy and I could really envision it in our family room. As you can see, we purchased the sectional with the white slipcover. You just can't beat the prices at Ikea and the quality is definitely good enough for us. I'm at a point where I don't want to buy expensive furniture that I feel like I have to keep forever.   We even had the sofa delivered and they took away the old sofa and loveseat  for a very small fee. We purchased this dre
