Are you looking to give your kitchen a rustic vibe? You can get the farmhouse look just right with some inspiration from these modular kitchen styling ideas! Here are the different ways to style your kitchen in farmhouse theme:
1. Set the Theme with Vintage Green Cabinetry
Nothing says rustic quite as much as old-fashioned green cabinets. This kitchen comes with panelled shutters in a lovely shade of green. It’s highlighted by the exposed brick wall in a country whitewashed finish. The tall overhead cabinets have small panes of bevelled glass that show off the owner’s ceramic ware, while burnished pots and pans are hung above the stove on a simple metal rod.
2. Farmhouse Kitchen Inspired By Wood
The farmhouse aesthetic in this kitchen is achieved by the use of a lot of wood; in the ceilings, the open shelves and the polished flooring. Lightly speckled granite countertops serve to accentuate the dull green cabinet shutters, while the cosy little round table speaks of hearty farm breakfasts with eggs, muffins and scones! Simple and very unassuming, this design is functional and will suit almost any kitchen layout.
3. Add a Blackboard for a Completely Unique Backsplash
We love the way this homeowner has used a simple blackboard as the backdrop to this charming cottage-style kitchen! Hanging pots and pans and an assortment of ladles over the plain-white-porcelain sink adds to the farmhouse vibe. Simple wooden brackets support the wooden shelving with a collection of neatly displayed glass and metal containers. 
4. Glazed Pottery for the Barnyard Effect
Graceful silhouettes in glazed ceramic ware adorn a rough misshapen wooden shelf that has been deliberately leaving unfinished to add texture and depth to this kitchen wall. While this shelf is predominantly ornamental, by showcasing utilitarian items you can choose to add the functional aspect as well.
5. Don’t Forget to Add a Touch of Green
Every farmhouse kitchen should have its own collection of homegrown herbs and veggies in tiny pots, soaking up the sunshine streaming in from the kitchen window. A collection of different styles of pots adds to the charm. There’s nothing quite like the aroma from home-cooked pasta sauce with juicy tomatoes steeping in plump garlic pods and fresh basil from your own garden!
6. Coppery Tints Accent Walls
These copper accents quite steal the show in this farm-style kitchen wall that showcases an off-beat decorating idea. An assortment of vintage kitchen tools, a copper teapot, jugs and mugs are hung on metal hooks and make a definite style statement. Check out the antique wooden chair in the foreground as well!
7. Modular Cabinets in Wood
Choose a modular kitchen shutter that’s finished in grainy wood, top it with a clean white countertop for a fresh and uncluttered look and add some wooden shelves and hooks to get your farmhouse kitchen started. As you go along, you can add rustic elements to add to the décor…cheerfully checked cloths, ceramic mugs, glass bottles with spices and pretty little potted plants to highlight the farmhouse element. Keep things cohesive with metal accents, charming blinds or curtains at the windows and light coloured tones, and your kitchen will be the envy of the neighbourhood!
8. Pendant Lights Add the Right Look
The warm and welcoming pendant lights above the central dining table add interest and focus to this kitchen. Good lighting is critical to the entire kitchen design, and the warmth of Edison lamps is a decor element that adds cheer.
9. Accessorize the Right Way!
When you’re trying to go all the way with the farmhouse theme, the accessories must match as well! Reclaimed wooden shutters that have been given a distressed look highlight the farmhouse effect and the rough-hewn countertop is the perfect backdrop for accessories like this pretty criss-cross wire basket, hanging glass lamp and checked cotton napkins. Fill roses in this white ceramic jug with a curved handle and your look is complete.
You just can’t go wrong with the farmhouse style kitchen. It is rustic, chic and sophisticated all at once. Besides being completely functional, this modular kitchen theme offers a warm, cosy canvas on which you can unleash your creativity without burning a hole in your pocket! Once you have got your farmhouse basics right, it’s all about adding the right accents that will personalise your space the way you want it.
