The kitchen is the heart of the home, the place where we gather to prepare food, eat, and spend time with family and friends. As a result, this is a room that requires careful planning and attention to detail when it comes to decorating and furnishing. 

Unfortunately, we can easily make mistakes when we follow a trend and end up affecting the functionality, aesthetics, and even the safety of our kitchen. In this article, we will explore the top 4 mistakes you should avoid when decorating and furnishing your kitchen, so you can create a space that is practical, beautiful, and enjoyable to use. 

1. Elegance is one thing, but ostentation is something else 

Honestly, what we want is an elegant kitchen, not a museum or an art gallery. Interior designers advise looking for harmony and sophistication but avoiding ostentatious touches that just scream “Look at the expensive items that I have.” 

Remember that elegance can also be practical and cozy. The ultimate purpose of your kitchen is cooking, but you can always show off the items you have as long as you do it with good taste. 

2. Good distribution is the best ally against laziness

Are you one of those people who have the mixer or blender hidden inside a cabinet because you don’t know where to place it? The kitchen is not a storage room! 

Be smart when it comes to organizing your utensils and appliances to avoid laziness. If your work processes are well thought out, cooking will be a pleasure and not a challenge worthy of “Where’s Wally.” 

3. Don’t overload the pantry  

We all love good food but be careful not to turn your pantry into another item collection. Storing tons of products that will later expire is a real sin in the kitchen. 

Try to have a well-organized pantry with short or extendable shelves to keep track of your groceries. It’s better to go to the store several times than to have to put your groceries on the countertops.

4. Controls creative impulses 

Don’t let a creative impulse make your kitchen look like a junk warehouse. Yes, decorating with art, vintage pieces, and even books are trendy, but there’s a limit to everything. 

It is useless to fill the walls of the kitchen with art if it doesn’t harmonize with the rest of the elements in it. Remember, your kitchen is not the Louvre! Avoid turning your culinary space into aesthetic chaos and maintain coherence in the design. 

We hope these tips will help you avoid these sins in your kitchen. With a touch of good taste, you will make this area of the home a true delight for the senses. Remember, cooking is an art, and your kitchen can be a masterpiece!
