The Ultimate Kitchen Décor Guide

like any other room in your house, your kitchen deserves the right kind of décor. The way that your kitchen is decorated should not only blend in with the rest of your home while maintaining its own appeal but should also reflect your very own unique tastes and preferences.  The kitchen can however be tricky as very many homes have abandoned the open plan kitchens in favour of kitchen islands.  The major aspect of kitchen islands is kitchen stools and choosing the right one can be a daunting task considering that you have to consider a number of factors not just the overall décor of the house.

Kitchen stools are functional in that they offer you the same function a dining table and chairs would provide without taking up a lot of space. You however have to consider certain aspects such as height when choosing Breakfast bar stools for your kitchen island. In order to correctly determine the right height of stool to purchase you need to measure the height of the kitchen island and keep in mind that you will also have to have adequate spacing both between the stools and the kitchen island.

You will also need to establish the number of breakfast bar stools that can comfortably fit on your kitchen island. This is where measuring the spacing between the stools is important because you will have to allow adequate space for socialising, eating and drinking without getting in each other’s personal space.  The spacing may also be directly affected by the size of the stools and it is important that you consider how big or how small you want your kitchen stools to be.  Of course the size of the stools will depend on the size of the kitchen island and by extension the entire kitchen.

The location of your kitchen island within your kitchen may also affect the size of the breakfast bar stools. If your kitchen island is located within corner, you may want small stools that will not overwhelm and crowd the counter. Aside from going for smaller breakfast barstools if your island is in a corner, you could also go for breakfast bar stools that are backless as they tend to take up less space with more room for the occupants to manoeuvre when at the table.

It is also important to consider the material used to make the stools sometimes for purely decorative purposes although it may be easier to clean certain materials such as leather or wood.
