Hello friends. Today I’m sharing how I styled my kitchen towel bar. I have a bare spot on one of my cabinets as you walk into the kitchen and I had been thinking about what I could add to it. I searched online for inspo. and instantly loved the photos of towel bars in the kitchen. I thought this is a perfect spot to hang practical items I can use, along with some decor pieces. Let me show you how I mix new and old items for the perfect Cottage, Vintage look.

My kitchen is a mix of French, Cottage, & Vintage decor so I searched online for a towel bar that would match well. I found this one with hooks thru Amazon. It is sort of a bronze/golden color. It was easy to install with a few screws, and I liked this one had screw covers.

Now the fun part!

I like to group items in my home by odd numbers. It is more balancing and pleasing to the eye. I started with a cutting board because I can use it when needed but it also doubles as decor by adding warmth & height when stored away. I added a hand towel I made from some scrap fabric. Any towel will do; you can get some really cute ones from your favorite home store and swap them out for any holiday. I found these vintage decorative pans from a thrift shop a few months ago. I didn’t have a plan for them just yet, but I loved the details. They are copper/enamel and handmade from Greece. What a find right? Mixing in the metal with the wood tones here adds texture and gives it a more lived in feel.

I wanted some kind of dainty art piece, and it needed to be something small to balance out the larger focal point items I already had. I found the prettiest dandelion print framed at Hobby Lobby. They have a good selection of mini framed art right now. I picked this one because it added to the warmth & texture I was already creating. It’s a rich color and also has a metal chain, another texture element. The colors also tie in with other items I already have hanging. You can’t see in the photo due to the lighting, but I added clear glitter glue all over the dandelions, so it sparkles in person and really looks whimsical!

Now when I walk into my kitchen there is so much more character in this spot. I love seeing it!

This was a fun mini makeover and relatively easy and inexpensive. I spent about $35.00 for all the items including the bar. I think it looks great now and I’m happy with the way it turned out!

Hope you enjoyed reading,
