The Heart of The Home: Kitchen


They say the kitchen is the heart of the home because that is where we create meals to nourish our family. We want to nourish them because we love them. 

Though the kitchen is the workhorse of the home, I believe in making it as beautiful as possible because we spend so much time in there. When you have a beautiful space you want to spend time in there and that makes the work seem a bit easier. 

How do we create a beautiful kitchen?


  • Keep clutter to a minimum. 
  • Everything should be useful as well as beautiful. 
  • Paint is an inexpensive way to transform a space. Use the colors you love!
  • Keep decor simple. 
  • Have nice dish rags and towels. Replace as needed.
  • Have nicely scented dish washing liquid.
  • Use pretty decanters for oils and hand soap to replace the ugly plastic bottles.
  • Streamline the counter top. Only keep what you use daily out. 
  • Have pretty cookware, dishware, and glassware.
  • Be organized. Put like things together and in places they will most likely be used.
  • Add a pretty rug or two.
  • Hang a few nice inexpensive art prints. 
If you don't know what your style is I encourage you to browse through Pinterest to glean inspiration that you incorporate into your own home. I have a few decor boards of my own which you are welcome to browse and follow if you so desire. You can check it out here:

Hope this has been helpful for you. Let me know if you need help!
