Cozy Cottage Kitchens

Beyond the Practical

Cottage style is all about blending the practical with the stylish. The open shelf above the stove is perfect for keeping spices within reach. Colored concrete countertops are inexpensive and low-maintenance.

Artwork: Place prints, framed photos, and other wall hangings in a vertical series to create a strong line that draws the eye up toward the ceiling.

Stainless hood: Buy an inexpensive stainless vent from your local home center. Wrap brushed steel sheets around the vent to create a box that runs up to the ceiling. Make it look built-in by adding crown molding.
