Mid-Week Inspiration: Cottage Kitchens

I live in a big city, in a rental apartment. I'm lucky to have a kitchen the size I have, which means I can actually move in it! Of course, I find myself dreaming of a real kitchen quite often. I love the look of cottage type kitchens; not overly girly and with the right amount of retro mixed in.

Red and white! Gingham...cherries! 

Retro fridge! 

Love the farmhouse sink!
