29 Farmhouse Kitchen Ideas for the Perfect Rustic Vibe
Create your own dreamy, one-of-a-kind cook space using our favorite farmhouse kitchen ideas of all time.
You don't have to own a farmhouse, or live on a farm for that matter, to have the rustic farmhouse kitchen of your dreams. As it turns out, the popular mainstream look—thanks to the likes of farmhouse style whisperer Joanna Gaines of Fixer Upper fame and other champions of the style—can be achieved anywhere (and it definitely has proven to be no flash in the pan trend).
When it comes to gathering modern farmhouse kitchen ideas, simply start with all the perfectly imperfect icons of farmhouse style seen around the house, like well-worn antiques, hardwood floors, and collections galore. Those country charms and more, like unique kitchen lighting ideas, make for a one-of-a-kind heart of the home that is comfortable, cozy, and classic.
The kitchen can be one of the most expensive rooms to build and renovate. If you're looking for farmhouse kitchen ideas on a budget, consider open concept shelving that gives casual "serve yourself" vibes while saving on cabinetry costs. Reclaimed/repurposed materials bring loads of rustic charm, plus is there anything more quintessentially country than using what you already have? Both nostalgic and utilitarian, passed-down family collections create meaningful decorating moments. But do consider a splurge or two, like a hard-working apron-front sink for handling more than just dishes and built-to-last appliances for preparing hearty family meals to come.
Here, browse some of our favorite farmhouse kitchen ideas of all time, including small modern farmhouse kitchen ideas and farmhouse kitchen ideas with an island (because everybody wants an island, right?!).
