How to Decorate Above Kitchen Cabinets
With most wall space occupied in the kitchen, take advantage of the space above kitchen cabinets to introduce color and texture to the design theme. This above cabinet space is ideal for brining in greenery, displaying large decorative accessories and introducing favorite colors. In a Mediterranean kitchen, group large urns, baskets, bowls and plates, some reclining and some standing. Consider a backdrop, of wrought iron, small framed artwork and large baskets. Organic copper, iron, wicker, earthenware and fruit are natural companions in above cabinet displays.
Decorating above kitchen cabinets can be as simple as placing three large baskets across the top of cabinets.
Stand the baskets up on their side leaning against the wall and the look of the display improves.
With a backdrop of iron wall art behind the baskets and a faux plant cascading from one of the baskets, the above cabinet display becomes more interesting.
Add copper containers, two sitting and one reclining, two rustic earthenware vases and a sampling of foliage and faux fruit. With these additions, the three large baskets become a Mediterranean design statement in a rustic style kitchen.
