Many, many hours of planning were spent over the kitchen design of Our DIY House. I even Photoshopped various light fixtures into my Ikea kitchen layout to make sure I was happy with the result. I spent days deciding between an island and a peninsula (I chose an island), and I stared endlessly at kitchen design photos in magazines and on Pinterest.
The final mood board for our kitchen is an eclectic blend of vintage, industrial and cottage decor. I want our kitchen to be sleek and clean looking (stainless steel appliances and polished chrome light fixtures), but still with warm touches (like bits of yellow and turquoise colours and creamy white upper cupboards).
What do you think of the final concept?
- Herringbone Carrara Marble Tile
- Ikea kitchen cupboards
- Hattaras Bay Mini Pendant from Kichler
- Premier Prints Twill Suzani Yellow Fabric
- Pfister Ashfield Faucet
- Ikea kitchen cupboards
- Ikea exhaust hood
- Ikea Domsjo Farmhouse Apron Sink
- allen + roth Provence Oak Laminate from Loweβs Canada
- Lagoon Lattice Fabric
- Grand Baluster Table from Restoration Hardware
- Ikea Ingolf Bar Stool

March 22, 2013 at 11:06 amThanks so much, Angie! That’s what I’m going for – as much as I like a classic all white kitchen, I wanted to add some character and interest.
