Ideas for decorating kitchen tabletops.

Tray

Often small kitchen utensils placed on the work surface make it look visually cluttered. A beautiful tray made of natural stone, fine wood or high-quality plastic will combine several small jars and bottles, thereby creating a single composition.

Instead of a tray, you can use a wicker basket with low sides or a small box.

Greenery

If you like houseplants, a couple of compact pots with unpretentious flowers that do not require a lot of sunlight will be an excellent decor. It is ideal when the work surface is large and located near the window.

To make the decoration not only pleasing to the eye, but also useful, you can plant fresh greens: parsley, watercress, onions, herbs.

Bread bin

Not at all an obligatory kitchen attribute that can take up too much space in a small room, but useful and beautiful in as a decoration. Often bread bins are a real work of art.

Choose a container that suits your style: it can store not only bread, but also various packages of products that are unlikely to decorate the interior when opened. The top part can easily be used as a shelf.

Fruit bowl

In a glass dish, fruit bowl or metal basket – fruit will look perfect in any kitchen. They will liven up the atmosphere and add home comfort to the most restrained and minimalistic interior.

It is not only beautiful, but also useful – passing by, you can replenish the supply of vitamins in the body.

Photo frames

A decor option for true aesthetes who strive to add coziness to the kitchen and minimize its perception as a technical cooking areas. That is why “non-kitchen” images are chosen for the design: posters with inscriptions, laconic drawings and photographs, botanical illustrations. The frames are placed on the tabletop and open shelves, creating an unusual gallery.

Shelf

A real trend that has become widespread abroad is the use of a multi-tiered shelf for fruit for other purposes.

Small pots with houseplants are placed on a three-tiered tray, They decorate it for the holidays, decorating it with candles, Easter eggs and sweets, and also set up a tea station, displaying aesthetic mugs and various types of drinks. As usual, wood and metal are the priority.

Flower pot

This idea from IKEA is not new, but it can still surprise those who do not expect to find a flower pot without plants on the kitchen countertop. A bold solution for those looking for an unusual container for a whole bouquet of cutlery.

A pot with a hole in the bottom will serve as a good dryer, because all the moisture will drain into the tray.

Lemonade bowl

Another great way to decorate the kitchen is to put a beautiful colored glass jug or lemonade bowl in the most visible place. If you like soft drinks, you should place a glass container with bright contents on the tabletop to give yourself and others a good mood, reminding them of a sunny summer.

Board with epoxy resin

An impressive product made of hardwood and a composition in the form of a piece of space or the sea are used not only as decoration – you can cut and serve food on such cutting boards.

Even a single board, made carefully and tastefully, can add individuality and elegance to your kitchen.

Books

In a small kitchen, you shouldn’t place a stack of books near the sink and stove – otherwise they will quickly become deformed and become unusable. But if you have enough space on your countertop, display cookbooks or art books in a wicker or metal basket.

This is a surefire way to make the space feel more homey.

Despite the fact that the kitchen is a place for cooking, the countertop can be decorated with completely “non-kitchen” items: this will allow add attractiveness to the interior and support the chosen style.
