Tour de Dream House: Kitchen

Got your walking shoes back on?
Ready to go back through Cristi (of Hiya Papaya) and Jeff's beautiful home?

You might want to have a small towel ready to wipe the drool off your chin after taking the kitchen tour.

Hold on to your hats, here we go...

I mean, come on... seriously? Is that not the most beautiful kitchen ever?
I think my favorite thing about it is the recycled glass counter top. How refreshing to see something other than granite!? (click here for counter top source)
Another favorite of mine has to be the flooring. Reclaimed barn wood. Love it.

Are these not the most beautiful kitchens ever?  I love the vintage style kitchens.

More Beautiful Cottage Kitchens...

I have quite the obsession with kitchens! I am in the process of rethinking how I want to redesign my kitchen... these pics are just a few inspiration pictures for me.. feel free to use them for your inspiration too!

FRESH!! I absolutely love this pantry. And what a brilliant way to utilize the pantry door as a huge "To Do List" chalkboard! The open cabinetry also adds visual appeal with beautiful dishes on display!

Fun. Daring. Thinking outside the box with color.

I absolutely love this kitchen. It radiates with cottage feel yet still allowing a fresh and somewhat modern look. I love the classic backsplash.

I love the open shelving for this kitchen! A perfect way to display the fabulous array of colorful dishes! I also love the roman shade. The pattern is elegant, but welcoming.

Fresh. Airy. Functional.

Love the arch above the stovetop. Again, love the backsplash. This kitchen is the classic cottage kitchen!

The clock is to die for! You can never go wrong with beadboard cabinetry.

Love the minty fresh wall color. Goes so well with the mahogany countertops. I wouldn't normally like these countertops, but it goes beautiful with the wall color and white cabinetry!

Kitchen Fresh!

I spotted this kitchen and knew right away that this was a pic worth sharing! I absolutely love the fresh vibe this kitchen gives. The mint green chairs add a classy vintage vibe and the wall colors are the perfect combination of cool and warm! And, of course, the open and exposed dishes... so cottage fresh!!

I love the look of this spice rack! So fresh!

I also loved the mint paint on the walls in this kitchen. I'm usually not crazy about stainless steel, but there are always exceptions as in this kitchen. It actually flows so well with the color scheme adding to the fresh look!Fresh at its freshest! Love it.
