I've always had issues with
decor vs
utility. Our existing kitchen reluctantly held my grandmother's behemoth hutch. The bottom drawers were catch-alls, and the top shelves displayed dusty, unused, barware. Cordial glasses. Brandy glasses. Champagne Flutes. Port Glasses. Glass Carafes. Shakers. Seriously, the most action seen by any of my six (!!) "on display" brandy glasses was when I converted two of them into terrariums.
Inspired by M moving in with me, I've started
downsizing & organizing. The kitchen hutch was one of the first to go. In its place, I wanted to put an open pantry for our dry goods. This not only
inspires us to eat healthier, but it
transforms utility into decor, which is a huge goal of mine.
