Farmhouse Sink
Farmhouse Sink
The most important element of a farmhouse kitchen is the sink. Farmhouse sinks are deeper and wider than modern sinks and were made for washing big pots and pans. Apron-front sinks are the perfect fit, and I recommend going with porcelain white to keep the look uniform. Though depending on your use of color and accents, options such as rich copper, stainless steel, and fireclay may fit nicely too.

The whites in a farmhouse kitchen only work when they provide a background for splashes of natural color. When you’re not cooking with a rainbow of reds, greens, and purples, keep your kitchen lively with a vase of wildflowers. They also add a pleasant scent that will transport you to nature, no matter where you live.

The classic farmhouse is all about nostalgia and unpainted wooden elements, giving an aged look that we find so calming. An old breadbox and wooden chairs or stools are great additions, but if you don’t want to go that far, just store your cutting boards and wooden spoons in the open.
