ideas & inspiration | №1

Many of you that have followed me for awhile know that I DO NOT like cooking.However, I LOVE kitchens.Small  . . .Big . . .Medium . . .It doesn't matter what size.All white . . .Dual Color . . .Color . . .Color matters to some degree!Style matters more . . .cold, sterile design I have a hard time with. Even with my huge lack of interest in cooking, when I do cook I want to feel comfortable, when I don't I still want to love and feel comfortable.From my pin board I have chosen four kitchens.Kitchens that would make me smile, want to stay in for some time,ANDMAYBEgive me the overwhelming desire to cook!!HA!!! Ok . . .I may have stretched that statement just a tad!But one can only hope . . .I love the light that streams into this kitchen . . .

and those checkered floors . . . sigh . . .

Although this next picture is a butlers pantry, it is still, to me, part of a kitchen

Love the roosters on the curtain rod and of course the color . . .OH be still my heart!number three . . .

 . . . sigh . . . can't pin point one exact source that draws me in. Maybe it's the color of the cabinets or the vignettes BUT I want it :)and last but not least . . .

. . . . another BIG sigh . . . Love the butcher block counters, I like granite too, but there is just something so timeless (at least to me) about butcher block. The tile backsplash and the cows head it just too CUTE!!so, what do you think . . . could anyone of the kitchens inspire you to cook?linking to: thursday favorite things
