Inspiration Snapshot: Chic & Cheerful Kitchen Nook
Have you seen the latest issue of House Beautiful?! This gorgeous kitchen nook is on the cover and there are several reasons why I'm loving it: the yellow accent wall - normally I'd stay away from yellow paint but this color totally works with all of the neutral grays and whites; the fact that the designer used an actual sofa instead of a built-in bench seat (and the fabric is lovely!); the bright citron dining table; the cute wire stools, which are actually side tables - the designer just added a custom cushion to the top. And did you notice the floor? It used to be dark brown and was transformed with a painted pattern in gray and white. I'd love to start my day off in this cheerful space with a cup of coffee and my morning paper. How about you?!

Love it...especially the sofa fabric. I have a sofa as a part of my breakfast table and it's a magnet for those who want to lounge before or after a meal, or in between. A sofa rules!
ReplyDeleteI always find ways to add a pop of yellow in any room decor. LOVE! I know you are pregnant and thought you might want to check out my son's nursery design. Feel free to share with your readers! http://obsessivision.com/projects/the-nursery/ (you can follow in the footer)
