How To Have An Eco Friendly Kitchen
Yesterday I shared a review of kitchen design trends. Today I’d like us to consider ways to make our kitchens more environmentally friendly. Even the smallest of choices we each make can create a massive impact on the environment when combined with others. If you’re looking for ways to be eco-friendly, you can easily start right in your own kitchen. Designing a kitchen that incorporates sustainable materials like stone, granite and wood, is far better for the planet and will give a natural, organic aesthetic. Natural stone and wooden cabinets are not only sustainable, but long-lasting, durable and offer timeless style.

Kitchen Design Trends for 2023
Decor should reflect your own unique style
Before I review style trends, I must preface this with my belief that you take current trends and adapt them to your personal style. Whether you are a modern minimalist or a cottage lover, decor trends come and go. Anyone remember scads of geese and ducks from the 1990’s? How about palm trees? There is nothing wrong with a duck, palm tree, or other vintage item in your home decor today if that fits your style or has a personal meaning to you. I believe adding a few trendy items with the items you love and cherish can make your room more contemporary, but it is still you.

Christmas Decorations Display Palm Harbor
Photos to day are courtesy of my friend, Maryce. She drove to Indian Trails, Palm Harbor, Florida to see a popular Christmas decorations display. This is where local weatherman, Denis Phillips, lives. Annually he has such a fabulous display that at night cars clog all roads to the area. Slowly you stop and go to see displays. He more importantly raises LOTS of money for charity selling hot chocolate and cookies. Maryce went before dark to avoid the crowds but it’s sure to be worth a trip back when the lights are on.
