I totally get the no clutter in the kitchen. ❤ If there is a mess, I have to clean before I start! I'm a closed cupboard girl! 😂

@bogieboog 2 ай бұрын

You’re so right the problem with decorating with glassware and plates is always the same. It gets dusty dirty, the cooking oils form a sticky film. And then it ALL needs to be cleaned. Ain’t nobody got time for that.

@selinaburford6771 3 ай бұрын

I appreciate all the advice you give, but know that some people like open storage because that is how they organize. The minimal decor works for me but my husband will not pull out the toaster if he has to look for it. I have my kitchen aid stand mixer out but I don’t use it on a regular basis. It was his idea and I want to put it away. Everyone has to decorate to their aesthetic and style.

@user-np9sm5oh8v 3 ай бұрын

We redid our kitchen 12 years ago. Open concept to rest of living space. We intentionally used closed storage, but installed a larger window to not feel closed in with upper cabinets. In-cabinet garbage. Small appliance garage for coffee pot, toaster, juicer. Special slots in drawers for knives. I have plants and salt and pepper shakers on cabinets. AND (not in your ideas) one very special decorative plate from Blackberry Farm that we obtained from our 25th anniversary. It is our artwork in the room. Also, the baskets and bins are wonderful in an enclosed pantry and cabinetry for organization. Labeled.☺

I have friends who use the top of their refrigerator for food storage, boxes of cereals, cookies, chips, boxes of rice, ugh, drives me crazy, I always have to look away. I compromised and bought an IKEA cabinet with glass doors, and keep my baking items in there in glass containers. I don’t leave anything out either, expect maybe fruit.

*The Un-Cluttered Kitchen* . I have an oversized galley style kitchen with a tiny prep island in the center of a six foot wide space. It is "THE MOST" functional kitchen I have had in my 57 years. I have my coffee "station" on a tray, all other small appliances are stashed away. I do a small vignette next to the fridge to hide the exposed ugly and one on the opposite corner which isn't "work" space. I decant my dish and hand soap in amber glass. I do have a small shelf above the cooktop for daily cooking essentials and I do like having a magnetic knife rail. Visual clutter is a deal breaker for me, physical clutter is a dumpster fire.

I do not like open shelves in a kitchen but I understand why people do. My cabinets are closed. My kitchen is a decent size. I do have enough countertops to have some items out but I try to have it be things we actually use. I have my coffee maker on my counter top, a beautiful cutting board that my dad made that I actually use. I keep my bread in a basket and I always have a fruit bowl out for the kids. I have a couple plants on my windowsill. My artwork is near the kitchen but not actually in it because I spent a lot of money on a beautiful backsplash tile and I want to be able to see it. We added a trash can pull out when we updated our kitchen and I love it.

Totally agree on hiding the trash can & recycling bin! Game changer! I Wish I had more drawer space, limited on that, so I do have the stoneware crock out with wooden utensils! My pantry is a life saver for storing countertop appliances! I only bring them out when I am using them, they immediately go back in the pantry after use. Great tips Valentina!❤

LOL, one of many reasons I got divorced. haha. Every single time I went in to cook, I had to freaking clean the kitchen first because he'd go in and make a snack and make a mess and dishes in the sink (with the dishwasher RIGHT THERE) and I was just over it. Now my house is always clean with minimal effort, I sleep peacefully with no snoring nearby, and I can decorate however I want. Honestly it's the way to go. haha (Keep Jack though, he's a keeper, unlike most). I'm with you though, gotta put things in cabinets instead of out. I hate looking at the clutter and it's always in my way.

@MGheen 3 ай бұрын

I've learned I'm not an open-kitchen-treat-it-like-a-regular-room kind of gal. I don't want to have my kitchen on view from the dining or living areas. We have lots of cooks (and cereal pourers) in our kitchen, and there's no way everyone would be on board with cleaning as we go. Cleaning then becomes my job, or else a nag. I don't need people in the kitchen when cooking is happening, either. We need to be able to quickly dump dirties in here when we have a small crowd over, and close the door until everyone leaves. I'd feel like I'd constantly be needing to excuse myself to clean clean clean. Also, an open kitchen invites the "need" to decorate it, and maintain some level of current styling. A closed kitchen makes the out of style but incredibly durable granite countertops a good choice for decades. And let's marble get etched, stained, and patina-ed with no one to judge. Clean and tidy--as far as I, the only person who cares--ok. But I want to be able to close my kitchen from view!

Jack next time paint the package black and white and pop a Greek key sticker on it and you’ll be right! Love all the plants and art in the kitchen, it’s gorgeous. No to open shelves and yes to hiding bins. Microwave has to be at bench height as I use it every day. Love drawers over cupboards. No to drawers inside of drawers or inside cupboards. I find if one thing is left on the bench by morning it’ll have multiplied to dozens.

I didn’t want the pull-out trash cabinet when I renovated my kitchen six years ago as it seemed a waste of space, but it somehow slipped by and was installed. Now I’m sold on it. P.S. When I was first married decades ago, we lived in the attic of an old house-48 steps up and the fridge was in a “pantry” off of the single counter kitchen.

I have all open shelving with only 2 upper seeded glass front cabinets. I display the beautiful dishware and glassware that I have collected over the years on the shelves, along with pottery, platters etc. It is done in an organized way and I love looking at my collections. Yes, it gets dusty on the upper shelves that I can't reach all the time but, I climb up there and dust it! My most beautiful things are behind the seeded glass cabinets and they look so pretty slightly obscured behind the glass. My countertops are pretty minimal, no appliances or utensils out, just a few nice plants so, that keeps things calm. One thing though, I could never cook with a big pot and plant next to my stove! Is that a faux plant? If not, how does it handle being next to a hot stove? And, do you mind if I ask, what is your countertop material? Your counters look so crisp and clean!

I don't have enough cabinets for everything so my utensils are out and my knives are in a block. But it just comes down to the number of cabinet drawers I have.

Give me Jacques Pepin's kitchen any day. A kitchen can still look good but the first priority in this space is functionality. Prepping food is often a messy ordeal and food needs to get on the table fast. Lots of good points here, but I fundamentally disagree about the kitchen just being another decorated room.

Trying to find things that can sit out (I NEED THAT MARBLE S & P set you have there!) and things that can be decanted, but some just "decan't be!" 😂 Solution, TOSS EM!

Your kitchen aesthetic, elevated by art, is elegant, Valentina, with clean lines on a canvas of negative space. As for your kitchen design, I continue to like the wall units opposite the "U" on the window wall 4 years later. Our remodel design encompasses all 5 of your suggested 🚫areas. Elements include portable induction cooktops replacing a stove, drawers in base cabinets, wall oven, wall cabinets & 2 pullout pantries. At one point the refrigerator was also put in our 🧺 room/pantry, but now the Counter-Depth with showcase right French Door is in the kitchen, instead of refrigerated drawers in one of the base cabinets. Timely video, with HoV signature style.l

I grew up with it and my family members kitchens are so filled it’s nerve wracking.😮 however I can’t decant in those jars, I wouldn’t have room in the cupboards. Boxes are thinner and store easier. Decanting is attractive.

And I also make sure whatever left out is pretty, like marble salt pepper Sellars and a small lamp.

I agree with *ALL* these things! Who wants to look at an ugly, smelly bin? I actually have an old milking bucket under the sink that was my grandmother’s when we had a farm. It’s about 100 years old and makes a great portable bin! 😜 I’ve never seen the point in decanting food items into prettier containers, you could drive yourself nuts and into bankruptcy buying aesthetic containers for *everything* - just hide them away in the pantry! Simple and sensible. I don’t keep appliances out either, just the microwave, oven and a kettle. I actually decorate my kitchen with plants and everything utilitarian is hidden.
