Get out of my dreams and into my car

May 9, 2013

And by car, I mean house.

Seriously though, I have been absolutely drooling over white kitchens for the longest time. Sometimes I day dream about them…that’s a little weird but hey, we’re all a little weird sometimes, am I right? I don’t know what it is about a white kitchen, maybe how clean they look or maybe it’s how open and airy they seem to make a room feel. Whatever it is, I want it. Who wouldn’t want to cook in one of these beauties?

These are just a few of the hundreds of white kitchen pictures that I’ve been ogling lately. Keep in mind that for now we’re just painting the cabinets and then we’ll move on to installing a backsplash, adding new lighting, and maybe one day we can even expand our space a bit (or maybe that plan will just have to stay in my dreams forever).

One thing that I know we’ll be making room for is a baking station – hopefully we can make it look as pretty as Jenny’s from Everyday Occasions:

Anyone who knows me knows (or should know) that I absolutely love to bake and I’m stupid excited to have my own little corner of the kitchen. Jenny’s baking station is not only gorgeous but functional and incredibly organized which I love.

Progress has slowed a bit in the kitchen since Kyle is out of town for a work trip but we should have all of the painting done this weekend which means next weekend I’ll be able to do the cabinet reveal! Until then, I’ll just keep getting some inspiration from my BFF.

What do you think about white kitchens? Too trendy? Classic? Boring?

    Totally classic! You can’t go wrong with a clean and fresh white kitchen!

      My thoughts exactly! I love them because you have a blank slate that you can change the feel of by switching out stuff like dish towels, canisters, and other random accessories. Can’t wait to see what you guys do with your kitchen 🙂

    A well used white kitchen is not boring, it’s the perfect stage to show off good cooking. I love, love, love that “baking station”. I haven’t heard that term before, but my future “scullery” might now become a “baking station”.

      That’s how I feel about white kitchens, too! I can’t remember where I first heard the term “baking station” but once I heard about the concept I knew I had to incorporate it.
