How to furnish your kitchen

To furnish your kitchen you need to think about what you use your kitchen for. If you've seen the Magnet kitchens advert on TV you will be aware of how they have managed to make you consider how you use your kitchen, thus installing the right accessories and quirky little extras.

So, choose a theme for your kitchen and work around that. Perhaps you like the idea of a modern, fresh kitchen, with white surfaces and black and red accents to make a striking combination. Alternatively, you could opt for a country-style kitchen, and if you have the space you could add a farmhouse style bench which would tie in well.

Remember to keep your kitchen functional. Cluttering with unnecessary extras will only make the space look smaller and be less pleasing to the eye when you first venture in. I love the kitchens that have chic home furnishings such as a stylish candelabra on the table or an overhanging stylish wooden pot rack above a wooden table centrepiece in the middle of the room.

There are many options for how to furnish your kitchen, but remember to keep it a simple and effective design.
