Summer Sizzle: Refresh Your Kitchen in Waterford this Summer with Envision Kitchens

Summer is here, and with it comes the desire for lighter meals, refreshing drinks, and spending more time entertaining loved ones. But is your kitchen ready for these warmer months?

At Envision Kitchens & Interiors the team know exactly the elements to create a summer-inspired ambience that will make your kitchen the centre of summer.

Embrace the Light and Air: 

• Natural Light: Maximize natural light - Consider lighter curtains or sheers for a breezy feel. 
• Let the Sunshine In: Wash away winter's gloom with light-colored walls that act like reflectors, bouncing natural light around your kitchen and creating a breezy, open atmosphere. Imagine walls in soft yellows, calming lavenders, or crisp whites – these instantly brighten the space, making it feel like summer can linger year-round. Light-colored cabinets become a blank canvas for your personal style. Think pops of color with painted accents or playful accessories. And to truly capture the essence of summer, consider glass-front cabinets where you can showcase your favorite summery dishes and glassware – a vibrant display that brings a smile every time you reach for a cool drink. 
• Declutter for Calm: Declutter your countertops and open shelving. This will create a sense of calm and make the space feel larger. 

Update for Summer Entertaining: 

• Ramp up Your Breakfast Bar: If you have a breakfast bar, style it with fresh flowers, colorful bowls, and summery placemats. This will create a welcoming spot for casual meals. Pretty platters, cake stands, and colorful serving bowls will elevate your summer gatherings 
• Rustic Retreat: Imagine a kitchen island that beckons you in, a rustic haven crafted for Light warm afternoons, cozy evenings and laughter-filled mornings. Reclaimed oak, its surface smooth from years of love, forms the base, radiating warmth and character. This island isn't just a piece of furniture; it's the heart of a home, a place to gather, cook, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
• Bar Cart Chic: Set up a bar cart with all the essentials for summer cocktails. This will free up space on your countertops and add a touch of sophistication. 

Summer Kitchen Must-Haves: 

• Ice Maker: Beat the heat with an under-counter ice maker. This will be a lifesaver for keeping drinks frosty all summer long. 
• Water Filtration System: Fresh, filtered water is essential in the summer. A water filtration system will keep you hydrated and save you money on bottled water.
• Salad Prep Station: Create a designated area for chopping vegetables and prepping salads. This will make summer meals a breeze. 

The Little Touches: 

• Fresh Flowers and Herbs: Add a touch of life to your kitchen with fresh flowers and herbs. 
• Seasonal Artwork: Swap out your winter artwork for something with a summery feel. Think beach scenes,lemons, or colorful flowers. 
• Summer Scents: Fill your kitchen with the scents of summer with scented candles or diffusers. Opt for fresh scents like citrus or lavender. 

With a few simple updates, you can transform your kitchen into a summer oasis that's perfect for entertaining and enjoying the warm weather. Visit Envision Kitchens today to find everything you need to create your dream summer kitchen!
