antique decor

Decorate your farmhouse kitchen with antique accessories for an authentic country vibe. We love the combo of vintage decor paired with modern backsplash for a balanced appeal. 

Modern Farmhouse stools

If you have a large island in your modern farmhouse kitchen, we highly recommend going for these quintessential modern farmhouse black stools. We’ve spotted these in all the most beautiful MF designer kitchens, and luckily – they aren’t very expensive! These ones from Wayfair are less than $200 each. 

open shelves + Beadboard

Open shelving creates an airy, spacious, and inviting aesthetic. We love this as a way to transform a functional space into something beautiful and decorative.

We recommend choosing natural wood shelves to match the rustic aesthetic and display your favorite cookware and kitchen accessories to add character and charm. 

For your backsplash, try classic beadboard for a traditional farmhouse look. 

butcher block counters

Butcher block counters add a warm and rugged appeal that is perfect for farmhouse design. Plus, butcher block countertops are affordable and durable.

Pair this with light-toned cabinets for a beautiful and elegant contrast.  

RusTic Stone Flooring

While wood and metal are some of the most commonly used materials in modern farmhouse kitchens, rustic stone adds a farmhouse cottage feel. The stone flooring above adds subtle pops of color and a unique, European charm that elevates the space. 

natural decor

The beauty and texture of natural decor like florals, wicker baskets, wood cutting boards, and linen curtains infuse a contemporary kitchen with country charm. These details create a warm, finished look perfect for making memories with loved ones. 

subway tiles

Subway tiles are a classic choice and work for many aesthetics, but they’re particularly stunning in modern farmhouse kitchens. We love these tiles with sleek cabinets and countertops, and the timeless ivory tones are a lovely backdrop for earthy hues and decor.

hanging pots

Transform your kitchen into a culinary gallery by hanging antique pots and pans on the wall.” Use hooks and rods to create space for pots, pans, dishcloths, and more to give your kitchen a traditional farmhouse look. 

vintage stove

An old-school stove is perfect for a farmhouse kitchen, adding vintage charm and working as both decor and a functional piece. We love the black stoves with gold knobs, but opting for a blue, green, or red stove adds a bold touch.

Let the decor in your farmhouse kitchen change with the seasons, swapping out floral arrangements, table centerpieces, and garlands throughout the year. This is one of our favorite ways to infuse a space with earthy charm and bring a touch of nature indoors. 

DOME PENDANT lights

Dome pendant lighting adds style and personality to the room, creating a warm and cozy vibe around the kitchen island. We love the earthy look of these metal pendant lights, though a dome pendant in black or white would give a farmhouse charm too. 

neutral palette

Neutral colors are common in a farmhouse kitchen, so we suggest adding visual interest through texture and subtle contrast between tones. Utilize wood (like the long wooden table above), copper, marble, wicker, and metal to add variety and beauty.

reclaimed wood

If you want to add character and texture, use reclaimed wood in your kitchen. We love the dark, rugged wood island, and it adds a nice contrast to the sleek counters, cabinets, and backsplash.

You can also incorporate reclaimed wood in simple decorations for a more subtle look. 

metal grid details

To maximize light and give your kitchen a subtle industrial vibe, metal grid line doors and windows are the way to go. This combo opens the space up and the black grid details pop so beautifully next to white tiles and cabinets. 

checkerboard designs

Checkerboard patterns are a classic design choice for farmhouse kitchens, but they’ve also been trending for the last year, making checkboard tiles both a timeless and modern addition to your space.

Whether you use it for backsplash, flooring, or something else – this is an excellent way to add style and country flair to a neutral, contemporary kitchen. 

ivory shiplap

A well-known addition to any farmhouse kitchen – shiplap! We love the light, airy appeal of classic white shiplap, but you can paint this feature any color to match the palette of your kitchen. Either way, shiplap walls will give the space a natural, charming look. 

copper accents

Metallic accents are gorgeous in a farmhouse kitchen, but copper is one of our favorite tones for this aesthetic. With a warm and antiqued look, it adds an earthy appeal and elevates a neutral palette. 

farmhouse sink

What farmhouse kitchen is complete without a farmhouse sink? With a distinct front-facing feature and oversized look, this sink instantly adds country flair to the space. White porcelain is timeless, but you can choose concrete, copper, or stainless steel for a unique look. 

wooden beams

If your kitchen features exposed wooden beams, let them be the star of the show by leaving them in their natural state, which will help you fully embrace the classic farmhouse look.

We love the soft, light wooden beams for an understated look. But dark, rich beams can look stunning, too, so opt for a stain that matches the aesthetic of your space. 

floral wallpaper

Floral wallpaper is always stunning, and we love the combo of nature-inspired wallpaper with shiplap or tiles. We adore the soft, rosy wallpaper above; it adds a cozy, feminine charm.
