Phew, we not only survived the holidays but had one of the best Christmas’s/Hannukah’s eva! Can’t wait to post all of my holiday loot! Stay tuned on that. For now though, my kitchen is clean and I’ve decided it’s time to bring you in.
This kitchen… (breaths in the sweet smell of satisfaction) I really do love this kitchen. It’s pretty, it’s functional and it’s completely open to the family room which means great flow with my kiddos. This island is massive (Hell yeah!) We cook, we eat, we stack all of our crap on here (you know you do it too).
I drooled over these stools before finally biting the bullet. They’re like jewelry for my kitchen. I love they way the light bounces off of them and they bring a mid-century modern touch that I’m loving. Get em here: Gold Barstools
Can we chat for a second about the pendant lights? I love these, they bring the kitchen up a whole level don’t ya think? If you’re looking to spruce up your own kitchen I highly suggest changing your lighting. Sometimes that’s all a space needs to bring it from “Eh” to “Oh Wow!” If you have a large island like me, hanging multiple lights is the way to go. It’ll make your space look bigger and you’ll be thankful for the extra light. You can find similar pendant lights here: Copper pendant lights and I love these too: Beulah Pendant light
I’m going to be completely honest here. I didn’t choose this stone, and never would have thought that I’d love a dark color like this but it works! It adds contrast and dimension and it’s a little unexpected. The ivory cabinets off-set the stone and brighten up this space. Let’s not forget about these floors…. Come ON! They might be the best thing about this house. They’re white, they’re bright, they’re super easy to take care of and er-body loves them!
This Viking stove is a beast, and I obviously use it daily but I wish I knew how to do more than make mac & cheese for the kids. Hey I plan to learn make fancier dishes…one day. Maybe.
The breakfast space is flooded with light all day long and I knew I wanted a simple round table with these easy to clean but super chic looking chairs that you can get here: Pyramid dining chair These clean up so easily y’all, which is a must with the kids. Another added bonus is that they’re super affordable! The table is so simple which is what makes it beautiful (to me anyway) Something about white makes things look new, clean and modern. This is the table right here: White kitchen table I like to punch up this table with fresh flowers. Check This post for steps on how to arrange and decorate with flowers!
So the fridge umm..is not organized so I’m not even gonna lie about it. Pantry, also not organized either but I really want to invest in those roll out pantry drawers that would make my life so much easier. I’ll post when that project is done.
Thanks for coming, thanks for reading. I hope you love it as much as we do! Im always happy to lend a hand so if you have questions about decorating your own space please let me know in the comments or you can send me an e-mail. Have a FAB week everyone!
Xoxo,
Kelly

I have serious kitchen envy now.. the space is huge, lots of cupboards, that island is great and the cooker is just wow… we have such a small kitchen having seen yours I don’t think ours even counts as a kitchen!
kellyestone@yahoo.com says
Haha Amanda! You are so funny! Honestly just a few changes can spruce up your kitchen in no time. I’ve seen some super tiny kitchens that look so fab just by brightening up the space. A new coat of paint (I’m a real fan of white) you can even paint your cabinets, some new cabinet pulls, add some fun dish towels, a vase of flowers and you’ve got yourself a whole new space!
Amanda says
love your positivity, but yes I could change up the cabinets a bit with some paint and get a new work surface, the dark of yours offsets the white beautifully..
Leigh Suznovich says
Oh wow, I am having some serious kitchen envy! That stove is everything. Thanks for the gorgeous tour!

You have now passed the stool obsession on to me. I’m already googling to see if I can get them in rose gold for my kitchen.

Neha kumari says

Thanks so much for reading Neha!
Heather says
Oh my goodness, what a dreamy kitchen! I absolutely love every part of it. Could I even fit an oven like that in my kitchen? Likely not, but it is so beautiful! I love how everything ties together.
kellyestone@yahoo.com says
Thanks so much Heather! Yes the oven is massive. Someday I learn to actually use it
Kim Amy says
We have the same round table, I love ours, but we didn’t spring for the matching chairs they look great!
kellyestone@yahoo.com says
Love this table! Doesn’t clean so easily? Those chairs make such an impact, I think they were less than $100 each too if you change your mind and decide to get them 🙂
Chelsea @ The Johnsons Plus Dog says
Oh my goodness, this kitchen is absolutely gorgeous. That stove would seriously just make me want to cook all day 🙂 I love countertops and backsplash.
kellyestone@yahoo.com says
Thanks so so much! I love it too and WISH it would inspire me to cook all day haha.
Nicole Parise says
This is really beautiful! Those bar stools were totally worth it, the color and style is fantastic!

Thanks Nicole! I honestly think those bar stools are my favorite things in there! To think I hesitated buying them at first. Totally glad I decided to go for it.

What a gorgeous space! I can’t even begin to comment on what is my favorite part. I do love the bar stools. And that gorgeous stove and hood combo! I want a stove like that soooo badly! – Amy @ http://thegiftedgabber.com/
kellyestone@yahoo.com says
Thanks so much Amy! Im happy with how it turned out. Still playing with the idea of changing out the cabinet pulls to gold ones! The stove is a beast for sure. Hopefully i’ll learn how to actually use it one day 🙂
