What are some cute ideas for a shabby chic kitchen??
I am moving into an apartment with a small kitchen. I want some decorating ideas. I'm into the shabby chic vintage look! What are some cute colors i can use and any other ideas you have! I am completely renovating the entire kitchen so any ideas are welcome. The only thing i cant change are the hard wood floors! Thanks for your thoughts!! (pictures would be great)
White , cream or duck egg blue make a lovely shabby chic look
I've noticed alot of the expensive pieces are just painted - then sanded slightly to distress it or a thin top coat sanded back to reveal the colour underneath ( using a wax candle helps define the sanded areas
Chicken wire looks great
Wire egg racks
wooden bread baskets
anything you see going cheap which is not the right colour you can paint yourself in your chosen colour (s)
Gingham is cute too in pastel shades
You can get some lovely vintage looking wall plaques on ebay
Just keep it all fresh and clean looking with a few vintage touches.....you don't want everything toooo shabby!!!...remember the chic bit!!! lol
I'd sat the more wood the better though - contrasted by chic wire baskets in the twirly vintage designs
No really dark colours ...on the lines of a shaker style kitchen
