{Country Kitchens Inspiration}



In a classic country colour combination, pale blue Shaker-style units team up with pristine white walls and a white range cooker. Add warmth with worktops and wall shelves in light-toned wood.
Opt for country-style kitchen storage, with a peg rail to hang home-grown herbs and flowers for drying, and a set of hanging shelves. Hide under-sink clutter with a simple to sew curtain, slotted onto a pole.  
No farmhouse kitchen is complete without a traditional range cooker, producing tasty home cooked meals and gently warming the room with background heat. This one is in a traditional racing green livery.
Choose surfaces and colours to evoke the country look, such as these units painted in a soft shade of grey-green and stone flooring. Real travertine or porcelain lookalike tiles would work equally well.
A design that has stood the test of time, the butler sink is even more practical in a double version with two generously sized bowls. Protect the wall around the sink from splashes with reflective glazed tiles.
Line a dresser with a delicate botanical wallpaper as a beautiful backdrop for simple ceramics. Bring in a ladder and attach hooks to suspend tea towels and aprons.
