A French Kitchen for the Masses


I was buying cookie cutters at the Crate and Barrel in Lincoln Park a few weeks ago when I came face to face with this beauty: the marble and iron island priced at $999. It's a look I've long loved, and after seeing similar pieces of furniture used in real kitchens, I'm convinced this is one item I would never tire of.

I have literally stalked that kitchen island for months, and I was just looking at french inspired rooms this morning! So beautiful. I wish I had the space for it (or the money for that matter!)

These are beautiful! Kitchens now a days often don't have the room for adding a table with such elegant touch, but for those that have the room this is a sure way to add Parisian chic :)

Just lovely. Yes I would want one too along with a big kitchen.

When are we going to see your kitchen redo??

well you know I LOVE these, I have always said that my dream house needs a big walk in closet and a beautiful kitchen with a farmhouse sink and big pantry, maybe one day

It's SO gorgeous! My friend Elizabeth just got one and blogged about it here: http://shockthebourgeois.blogspot.com/2011/01/dare-to-dream-come-true.html

It really brings the standard issue rental kitchen up a notch!
