With the approach of the holiday season, we’re guaranteed to be spending more time in our kitchens. That’s why we love the idea of giving this space a little refresh just in time for all the festivities.
For design inspiration, we turned to the internet, scrolling through hundreds of posts on Instagram—as we do every week—to uncover what’s trending in the kitchen. What we discovered is that the most-liked looks right now have a rustic aesthetic, which fits perfectly with the fall season.
This week’s stunning kitchen looks will put the hearth of your home in a whole new light. And if you like them as much as the rest of the internet does, we’ve got details on how you can steal the look. So what are you waiting for? Get cooking!
Colorful kitchen islands
I thought I’d share a slightly different angle of our kitchen today. The island appears more blue when the sun drenches it, doesn’t it? I love blue/green paint colors that change depending on the lighting. Please excuse the overflowing baskets on the open shelves – we keep snacks in those.
Have a wonderful day! .

This week’s first kitchen trend from @goldenboysandme is a good reminder that a little splash of color can go a long way.
“Since islands take up a smaller portion of the kitchen in comparison to the entire cabinetry, adding a pop of color—such as sage, navy, or even a poppy orange color—is a great way to incorporate character into the space without overpowering the room,” says Lisa Seeger, design trend expert for N-Hance Wood Refinishing.
And there’s another reason to focus on the island: “As trends are constantly evolving year to year, it’s more practical to utilize this smaller piece to adhere to the ever-changing landscape of kitchen trends,” she adds, “rather than having to renovate the entire kitchen.”
Get the look: Give your kitchen island an upgraded pop of color (with minimal effort) by working with wood refinishing experts or by shopping the variety of colors in Home Depot’s all-in-one cabinet refinishing kits.
Farmhouse-style wood beams

Hindsight is everything, and if you’ve spent the past few years wishing your home had farmhouse-style ceiling beams as charming as these ones reposted by @countryhomemagazine (originally from @sanctuaryhomedecor), we’ve got surprising news: It’s not too late! But no major remodel is involved here—all you need to do is install some faux wood beams.
“Having wood beams in your home brings a sense of rustic charm that’s really hard to match,” says Brett Elron, owner and lead interior designer for BarterDesign. “Traditionally, these beams were used as weight-bearing structures and cost thousands of dollars, but thankfully you don’t have to spend thousands to get this look in your home today.”
Get the look: Add in the perfect set of faux wood beams to your kitchen by shopping these designs on Home Depot, and then learn more about how to install them.
Two-tone cabinets
It’s easy to see why all-white cabinets are a dying trend, especially when you take in these gorgeous two-toned ones in the home of @kelsieemm.
“By experimenting with two- or three-toned kitchen cabinets, you’ll be creating instant interest and excitement in your kitchen,” Elron says. “There are no set rules for multitoned cabinets, and this combination of light and dark works beautifully in this kitchen, with the dark green tying into the overall rustic tones of the hardwood floors and the light cream cabinets bringing in some light.”
Get the look: Map out your two-toned kitchen cabinets using Lowe’s online Paint Visualizer, then head to your nearest Lowe’s location to pick up the winning colors.
Antique-looking pieces
Our beats per minute will never be the same! -What do you guys think about this mix of black, white, and wood in her country kitchen? We wanna know! COMMENT BELOW!!! 
Antique isn’t all drab rocking chairs and desks, as you can see from these vintage details in the fresh kitchen interior of @homestoriesatoz, reposted by @decorsteals.
“The mix of vintage and modern features in this kitchen does a great job of incorporating a rustic feel in the modern world,” Elron says. “I really like the hanging wooden light features, which create a nice mix of texture and style.”
Get the look: Head to your local vintage furniture store to scoop up some unique accent pieces, or shop the collections of vintage-inspired pendant lights and bar stools.

Who says your range hood can’t do double duty? This seasonal wreath display posted by @homeaura has given us all sorts of fresh design ideas for this tiny corner of the kitchen.
“When you have a kitchen that has a prominent color scheme like this one, you can almost get lost in it,” Elron says. “This range hood wreath helps to break up the color scheme while adding to the overall rustic look.”
Just be aware of any flammable issues with what you’re hanging on your range hood, he cautions: “Your hood shouldn’t be very warm that high up, but you should always be careful.”
Get the look: Add your very own festive range hood decor by shopping this selection at Wayfair.
