34 Farmhouse Kitchen Ideas for the Perfect Rustic Vibe
From reclaimed wood to timeless antiques, there are countless ways to amp up your kitchen's country style.
Duanne Simon
Thanks in very large part to farmhouse style whisperer Joanna Gaines, the Fixer Upper aesthetic is no mere fad. In fact, "farmhouse style" has become synonymous with "classic." Rustic touches like well-worn antiques, reclaimed and repurposed treasures, and crisp white shiplap walls are showing up in homes all over the United States—including those that are nowhere near the range. And while you can easily pull off farmhouse style in any room in the house, farmhouse kitchens—with their ruff-hewn open shelving, painted cabinetry, apron-front sinks, and collections galore—are by far the most coveted. So how do you get one of your own? Do you have to move to a wide-open space and make a farm-sized investment to pull off that charming kitchen of your own? Absolutely not. The beauty of farmhouse style is that it's simple—you can start small with a few gallons of paint and a well-loved farmhouse table and work your way up to shiplapped backsplashes and exposed beams. Even better: It works well whether you live in a big-city condo, suburban track home, or small-town cabin—maybe too well. Good luck getting party guests to hang out anywhere else!

Farmhouse Kitchen Stove in a Bold Color
The beautiful Aga stove in British Racing Green is the star of Jeannette Fristoe's charming kitchen. But her antique stoneware crocks, wooden rolling pins, and silverware drawer certainly give it a run for its money.

Black and White Farmhouse Kitchen
There's not a more classic color combo than black and white, and it works especially well for a farmhouse kitchen when you add tecture through woven baskets and greenery as well as patina via a silver collection.

Tennessee natives Seth and Chad Gilbert definitely know how to decorate without spending a fortune. They used reclaimed wood from their front porch to make the island, found the cabinets from a discarded display kitchen at a local shop, and bought the fridge for just $200 on eBay!

Salvaged Materials
This Georgia cabin makes wide use of salvaged materials, and it brings an acquired-over-time feel to this kitchen's features. With a black soapstone apron-front sink, teak countertops, and heart pine floors salvaged from 300-year-old beams in a South Carolina mill, this charming farmhouse kitchen has age and character.

Antique Signs
One of the easiest ways to incorporate farmhouse style into your kitchen and throughout your home is to hang vintage signs that say things like "Grocery" or "Meat Market." You can find them on Etsy or at your local antique store.

White Shiplap
The all-white kitchen in this rustic Tennessee home stays cozy with shiplap paneling that "keeps things from feeling sterile," the owner says. Honey-hued wooden accents like the barstools and cutting boards add some warmth to the space.

Decorative Rug
A gorgeous 19th-century Turkish runner adds a burst of color to this white galley kitchen inside a rustic Connecticut cottage. Exposed shelving adds to the kitchen's country style, and the owner painted the cabinetry slightly darker than the walls for extra dimension.

Pecky Cypress
Fans of reclaimed wood, here's a new kitchen trend you'll want to keep your eyes on: pecky cypress, seen here on the island and hood. This grainy type of wood is known for its long pocketing and striations. Orb lights also help soften a kitchen with lots of straight lines and sharp edges.

Exposed Shelving
Rustic wood looks even more lovely against crisp white walls and dishes. The owner of this northern California home used Douglas fir for the shelving and redwood for the farm table. Exposed shelving and hanging pots are classic features of a country kitchen.

Vintage Sink
This couple embraced the history of their 18th-century farmhouse by filling it with antiques, and in the kitchen, that translates to a vintage porcelain double farm sink and a display of gorgeous antique dishes. Other small touches, like the faded checkered rug and storage baskets under the sink, add to the rustic style.

Old Country Charm
A much-needed renovation replaced wallpaper and dark cabinets with an open, welcoming space that utilizes a mix of materials, from aged zinc on the countertops and hood to reclaimed wood on the island and walls. The owner of this 100-year-old Texas farmhouse has modern appliances hidden away inside the island, and the antique filing cabinet by the stove adds even more country charm.

Bold Tile
Use eye-catching patterned tiles for contrast in a small, monochromatic kitchen for added character, a perfect project if you're considering a summer renovation.

Retro Appliances
Inside a California farmhouse, this vintage-inspired stove in the shade "Lemonade" pairs perfectly with the classic, mossy-green tile and brightens up this sun-drenched space even more.
