The items placed on your kitchen countertops should be both functional and stylish in order to reduce clutter and look aesthetically pleasing. Your kitchen is one of the main rooms in your home that you want to try and keep spotless or at least clutter-free in order to keep chaos at bay and cook with ease. That's why we've rounded up 5 must-have kitchen decor items for you to easily add into your kitchen if you don't already have them. These items will create an easier cooking to snacking experience while doubling as decor! Choose whether to display them all against your kitchen backsplash, on your kitchen island, or as centerpieces for your dining table.
Having containers in your kitchen filled with necessities from flour and sugar to snacks, cookies, or mints, bring them within reach for easy access. Whether you're baking or grabbing a treat, providing jars filled with the essentials makes it simple to find what you want and need in the moment. They can also create a decorative centerpiece to your island or to your counter space paired next to a plant or two. Find a couple matching or complementing containers to bring in a design style you favor.
Feature fresh fruit and on-the-go snacks in a stylish tray, whether metallic or neutral. The tray works perfectly as kitchen decor and will highlight the snacks available in the kitchen, so your family members won't be constantly asking you, "Where are the snacks?" each time they head to the kitchen. It's also quite fun to have fresh fruit from the garden or your local farmers market on display.
You can't go wrong with adding a scented candle into your kitchen that doubles as decor. Whichever fragrance you choose, the subtle scent will fill the room when you're in need of a little pick-me-up. It's also optional to use the candle to mask any kitchen mistakes from overcooked casseroles to burnt brownies (happens to the best of us!). A scented candle can be perfectly placed on kitchen open-shelving or in the center of your table along with a vase full of fresh flowers.
No need to hide away your cookbooks behind kitchen cabinets or in your pantry, as they can create a wonderful decor element into the kitchen space. Stack one or two against your kitchen backsplash and set a candle on top or place a few upright with a utensil holder to keep them from falling. They'll be within reach when planning out your next week of meals or spark your creativity to bake something new!
Whether a cutting or charcuterie board, finding one that's mainly made of natural wood will complement just about any kitchen style and work great as kitchen decor as well. These useful boards come in handy quite often, especially when you're looking to cut fresh veggies and fruit or bread, as well as create a cheese and meat display for serving your guests.
