Kitchen Trends That Offer Comfort and Inspiration

These Kitchen Trends That Offer Comfort and Inspiration will be around for a long time because they are fabulous and timeless!  Some trends come and go… but I think most of them here are here to stay!

This past year has been a trying one for all but also one of enlightenment.  We have been spending much more time at home and truly want our space to be one of comfort and love.

 

Trending Kitchen Colors

When many of you walk into your Kitchen you kind of want it to feel like it hugs you like a big bowl of Minestrone Soup with extra Noodles… or a Casserole of Mac and Cheese!  So even though white is still the most popular color… there are a ton of soothing colors coming on to the scene right now.  Such as Mint Green… Sage Green… Light Blues…Navy… Turquoise and more… they are all like a big warm hug!  The other thing is is that these shades blend so well with many other natural elements and they love a pop of color too!

Mint Green Kitchen – Backsplash

When you walk into this soft green space everything seems a little bit better… a little friendlier…

 

Subtle Green – Chairish
