Transform your kitchen into a cozy cottage retreat with a shabby chic ambiance. Opt for distressed furniture like a vintage kitchen island, a worn-out wooden bench, and a farmhouse sink. Use pastel colors like mint green, baby blue, and pale pink for the walls and cabinets. Decorate with vintage kitchen utensils, floral prints, and whimsical accessories. Install open shelves to display your collection of antique teacups and mason jars. Finish the look with a floral tablecloth, a vintage-inspired pendant light, and a cozy breakfast nook.
