Wall Decor For the Kitchen

Rather than filling your bare kitchen walls with extra shelving or a spice rack, hang something decorative to give your kitchen a homey yet polished look. Whether your decorative style leans more toward vintage, traditional, or abstract, we have four ideas to spice up your kitchen.

• Go for a rustic vegetable or fruit painting like one of these Verdura Fresco Tiles ($39-$99) of tomatoes, asparagus, and carrots.
• Chalkboards like this Laidley Wall-Mount Entryway Chalkboard ($249) are great to hang on kitchen walls so you can easily write messages to your roommates or family members, keep track of the grocery list, or plan the week ahead.
• Invest in a large, abstract piece of artwork with a food theme like "Abe's Recipe" by Susan Allbert ($2,800).
• For a kitchen reminiscent of Grandma's, hang a framed crochet pattern or this bronze Many Hearts Wall Sculpture ($39) that looks like vintage cookie cutters.
