Small kitchen? No problem.

For some, a fun part of cottage life is staying close to family in a cozy space. Sometimes that means the kitchen is a little on the small side. Luckily, we found some tips to help you decorate a quaint kitchen! White and clear decorations can help you lighten up the space. You’re on the waterfront - take advantage of natural light and beautiful views with big windows! Take the backsplash all the way up to the ceiling to create depth or choose some custom built ins. If you’re looking for something a little funky, try a fun color on your bottom cabinets or throw some accent colors into the mix! Small kitchens can be functional and fun! Plus, less space to clean means more time with your family.
