This is the second edition of a four-week seasonal series we’re doing about our new Cotton finish and Bellingham door style by highlighting ways to make a white, bright Merillat kitchen stay fresh no matter the season! Stay tuned for spring and summer ideas in the coming weeks. Check out last week’s post for fall ideas here!
With winter knocking at our doors, we’re dreaming about how we’ll update our white Merillat Bellingham kitchen in Cotton finish for the season. White in the kitchen is a standout trend and though it might seem most fitting during warmer months, a few little design touches make it perfect for winter, too.
- Touches of red: To bring in a little holiday cheer; add red elements throughout the kitchen.
- Try: Kitchen appliances (like mixers and blenders), chair slipcovers and framed art with red accents are all great choices.
- Holiday accents: No matter which winter holiday you celebrate, bringing in tasteful seasonal décor adds a warm festive feeling.
- Try: Glittery snowflake designs, pine tree branches in a colorful vase, pinecones and ribbon in clear tubes, and holly berries or mistletoe wreaths.
- Try: Use metallic colors by adding a hint of sparkle with gold and silver accents. A centerpiece tube vase filled with metallic holiday ornaments or a silvery table runner plays up the shimmer of the winter season.
- White kitchens look expensive when attention is paid to details like fabrics so try adding warm, lush textures.
- Try: A bold off-white shag rug at the sink or under a table to accent the white, or try cowhide accents (framed or under furniture). Another option is to change out all accent towels for a bright, festive color like forest green.
What would you add to warm up a white kitchen for the holiday season?
