Budget Farmhouse Kitchen Decor Tips
Choosing Colors
Styling your traditional country kitchen, whether it’s in an old farmhouse or a newly-constructed home, starts with deciding on a color palette. Stick with white or light colors on the walls and ceiling to make the room feel airy and open.
You can add pops of color in inexpensive accessories such as vases, rugs, towels, planters and wall art. Try to choose pieces made of natural materials like glass, linen and wood to stay true to the country feel.
Modern Farmhouse
If you want your farmhouse décor to have a modern feel, don’t be afraid to combine styles that will give you an eclectic look.
A modern farmhouse can be styled with a combination of vintage and industrial furniture, accessories and artwork. If you have a large glass kitchen table, granite countertops or aluminum bar stools, add a chandelier in distressed wood or some low-cost lace curtains to get that farmhouse vibe.
Rustic Farmhouse
Try surrounding your rustic wooden table with mid-century metal chairs or adding a retro-inspired painting in your walk-in pantry. You don’t have to break the bank with any of these items in order to have a stylish home.
