Accessories are key when designing a rustic kitchen. If you have a large or open-plan kitchen, consider displaying vintage plates, teacups and other ceramics on shelving or in open cabinets for a traditional country kitchen feel. Antique vases, enamel serveware, cookbooks and wooden chopping boards are functional and stylish rustic accessories, so display them on counters, hooks or shelves.
Storing dry goods in glass jars is another practical and stylish way to accessorise a rustic kitchen. Potted herbs can be kept on windowsills or wooden shelves – we recommend terracotta or metal pots to enhance the rustic look.
Soft furnishings, such as rugs, seat cushions, curtains, or blinds, are another rustic kitchen essential. When choosing these pieces, consider how texture and print could complement your colour scheme.
