8 Amusing Design Ideas for A Small Kitchen That Won't Take Up Much Space

Decorating a small kitchen is difficult. When there is little space, you need to fit everything you need, and beauty recedes into the background after functionality. But there is a way out - we present to your attention ideas of decorations for a small kitchen.

Hang kitchen utensils from the ceiling

In a small kitchen, there is always not enough storage space. To solve the problem, use special rails. They can be used to hang pots as well as small utensils like spatulas and scoops.

Bright kitchen with utensils, household appliances and a window

This not only saves space, but also creates the atmosphere of a professional kitchen. For more aesthetics, buy beautiful dishes and keep them perfectly clean.

Get a rug

Carpets are a wonderful decorative element that won't take away a single bit of space from your small kitchen. The main thing is to pay attention to the material from which the rug is made. After all, this is a kitchen, and there is a high probability of getting dirty - the rug must be able to withstand frequent cleaning.

Replace the door with glass one

Using glass doors in the interior is a great solution to visually expand the space. They look stylish and effective, and the room seems less cramped.

If you live in a private home and the kitchen door faces your backyard, glass doors would look especially good.

Install a pull-out pantry

A pull-out pantry will help free up shelf space. Put away the things you don't need every day and leave the essentials within reach.

The pull-out version of the pantry is good as it can be made to individual measurements, thereby taking any free corner in the room.

Hang a portrait on the wall

Another win-win idea for a tiny kitchen is to hang a portrait. Why settle for boring pictures of fruit or landscapes when you can choose something unique?

For example, you can order a family portrait in the historical style, where all your relatives will be depicted as a Victorian family. An equally original option would be a portrait of your beloved pet portrayed as an admiral. In short, a portrait can be a personalized bright touch even in a small kitchen.

Add mirrors

Another interesting option for creating a cozy and stylish interior is mirrors. They visually expand the space, making it larger.

The mirror can be hung near the dining table, or you can make a whole mirror apron along the entire length of the work area. You should also pay attention to the frame, if there is one - it will also serve as a decoration.

Add patterns in unexpected places

If there is no room for decor in the house, then the essentials should also serve as decor. With this thought in mind, you can turn absolutely anything into a decoration.

There are flowers in pots and dishes with food on the kitchen countertop

Any kitchen surface - floor, kitchen "apron" and even the ceiling - can serve as a bright accent, if you lay it with colorful tiles with the original pattern. And most importantly, it won't take up a single precious bit of space.

Buy beautiful kitchen appliances

Most kitchens have things that don't go into cabinets. For example, a toaster, coffee maker, kettle, a few mugs. Why put them away all the time if they are used for breakfast every day and have to be taken out again?

There are pots on the stove, and a hood above it

Pay special attention to these items and buy ones that serve as a decoration in their own right. Then they will be pleasing to the eye, remaining in a convenient place for use.
