IKEA Dream Home + Blogger Style (Dream Kitchen)

August 26, 2013 by Kim Woodward

6-bloggers-building-an-IKEA-dream-home

It wasn’t too long ago that I shared my dream kitchen ideas. Today, I’m back with another dream kitchen.

What can I say? I have lots of dreams!

This time, I am blogging along with a fabulous group of women. We are 6 bloggers building an IKEA dream home.

We all are designing one space in a home with all IKEA products. When I was asked to be part of this, I immediately jumped on-board.

I was chosen for the kitchen space in a random drawing. Since I’ve actually used IKEA cabinetry, countertops and sink from IKEA. And while I love what I chose, I decided to go a different direction for this dream space.

I lurve the new LIDINGÖ grey cabinetry in the IKEA kitchen collection. So, I started with that and built from there. I’m sort of loving this space!

What I love: The gray cabinetry is unique but also classic. I love our butcher block countertops, so I went with that again. And I’m really digging the new graphic rugs – it brings a nice pop of color. I ended up choosing a patio set (which is a steal of a deal), which I think looks perfectly at home in the kitchen. I think this entire space looks pulled together and also comfortable. Who wouldn’t want to spend time here?

Now it’s time to check out the rest of the bloggers IKEA dream spaces. There are some ridiculously fabulous spaces in this bunch. You cannot believe all the beautiful things you can find at IKEA. Okay, maybe you can.

These ladies have style! I would TOTALLY live in this house.

Would you?

    I need a mop for all my drool! Looks great!

    My favorite thing about going to IKEA is walking through the kitchen section and swooning over all the cabinetry.

    I am starting to plan a kitchen remodel and your ideas rock! I may just have to steal a few…

    AHH! Get out of my head! I was just talking with my bestie yesterday about them getting gray cabinets and a butcher block countertop. My only change would be white cabinets on top, but keep the gray on the bottom. But I’m mildly obsessed with two-tone cabinets.

    Dude.. that table and chair set is for the outdoors? I love it. Great pick!

    Great seeing you this weekend!

    What a fun gig! I LOVE those cabinets!

    Our kitchen has Ikea cabinets (that the previous owner installed) and I’d love to paint hte bottoms gray (I’m just afraid of painting laminate)?\.

    LOVE the gray LINDINGO cabinets! They are so stunning. This kitchen looks beautiful. And the farmhouse sink is terrific!

    love it! I love those gray cabinets, and I love how it’s mostly all gray and white and black with just a few pops of color. great idea to use the outdoor table in the kitchen, too–looks great in there 🙂

    The grey kitchen cabinets are so great! The yellow and black are the perfect accent colours!

    The rug is awesome! We had a similar one in our living room (that I stenciled) but we swapped it for another one because it was constantly looking dirty. And those cabinets are my fave (we’ve had them for a couple of years here in Spain already and they always look fabulous in store).

      White on rugs is always a struggle! We had to toss a red and white rug in the kitchen that I loved but that always looked horribly dirty.

    Hi! I just came over to your blog from Nalle’s House and just wanted to let you know that it’s a bit hard to read this post. The section between the two photos seems to disappear under the sidebar, as does the second photos. Cute blog! 🙂 I love the centerpiece you’ve chosen for the dining room.

      Thank you for letting me now, Lisa! I’m not sure what’s going on. I’m working to fix it.

    I have had my eye on that gray kitchen for a while. I just love it. What a great pairing with the yellow rug as well. I could totally see myself in this kitchen 🙂

    • Kim@NewlyWoodwards says

      August 26, 2013 at 10:17 AM

      Me, too! Maybe it would make me want to cook!

    I love the gray and black with the yellow rug. It’s a such a classic color combination. What a beautiful kitchen!

    • Kim@NewlyWoodwards says

      Thanks, Amber! I really love the yellow in that rug – it’d actually be perfect for my dining area!
