When decorating the kitchen with travel art of Tuscany, focus on images of wine bottles, grapes, apples and lemons. Or go for the bigger picture with a garden landscape. The blue skies in garden art complements the warm brown and orange tones of the Italian landscape.

Decorating ideas:

* Clay tiles, from your local home improvement store can be used as a back splash, or use the individually as drink coasters.

* Wooden decorative objects in the shape of pears, pepper mills or wine bottles add to ambiance.

* Try your hand at decorating a small area with a leafy green stencil. Keep linens including table settings and window treatments in off-white hues.

* Upgrade cabinet hardware French Country knobs and handles.

Black wire baskets and candle holders finish out the Tuscan look in your kitchen.

For a Tuscan theme, consider your rooms with beige or golden mustard walls. For pops of color in the room, use large golden yellow or burn orange candles.

Add details to every corner:

* Use small garden statues as bookends.

* Spice up the room with coffee-colored furniture or decorative objects.

* Decorate the largest wall with multiple pieces of Tuscan art.

* Use small images in wooden frames on shelves and end tables, to resemble personal travel photos.

* Decorate windowsills with leafy vines in stone vases.

* Create a focal point in the room with a tall garden vase to complete the worldly transition.

If you have a wall that needs filling, we have a traditional set of Tuscan prints, our Flavors of Tuscany series. Each print beautifully illustrates a wide variety of Tuscan cooking ingredients, from garlic, peppers and herbs to cruets of olive oil and vinegar, set against a background of Tuscan houses, gardens, fields and forests. We also have a pair of old-fashioned Tuscan fruit images, or a series of eight botanical Tuscan vegetables, complete with their Italian names.

If you would like a sign to define or emphasize your kitchen’s importance in your home, we have a number of stylish La Cucina signs, many naming important towns or the region of Tuscany itself. Alternatively, perhaps you would prefer to emphasize your wine selection with one of our Italian Wine Cellar prints.

Kitchen Art That Enlivens The Heart Of The Home

Fruit of the Harvest

Our kitchens are often the gathering places for our families where we can nourish our bodies and enrich our souls.  The time spent cooking together, in lively conversation around the table and even in cleaning up is an example of the quality time that we try so hard to find in our hectic lives.

We want to create a warm and inviting atmosphere and the addition of artwork is an excellent place to build that foundation.  There are a few different kitchen art styles that you might consider depending on your current decorating theme.

  • The Cottage Kitchen

The light colors and clean, uncluttered feeling will immediately make you feel at home.  It is reminiscent of a quieter time when the accumulation of things was not a priority.  A cottage kitchen is simple and basic and artwork of a beach scene will fit perfectly with this style.

  • The Modern Kitchen

In the modern design the photograph can add depth and character to our kitchens  Photos of kitchen utensils or even abstract art of food and drinkcan create an interesting focal point that will draw the eye.

  • The Classic Country Kitchen

This is a very popular theme today which creates that warm and inviting atmosphere we seek.  The country kitchen brings to mind warm soup bubbling on the stove and baskets of fruit on the counter.  This theme lends itself particularly well to images of farms and farm animals as well as the primitive art style.

  • The Asian Kitchen 

The type of art that this kitchen will highlight includes images of natural beauty like cherry blossoms and seashells and the iconic asian influence in their zen-like outdoor spaces.  It is in this kitchen that you will find a place of peace and stillness.  

Our kitchen art is an extension of our desire to provide a place were we can come together as family and with friends and feel a sense of warmth and comfort. No matter what theme speaks to you there is artwork that will deepen the experience and help bring it to life.
