Today I’m joining my friends Mary Ann and Cindy and a few friends to share some beautiful kitchens. The kitchen that I am sharing today is the kitchen of my friend Caitlin (@thepicketfenceprojects) who lives a few towns away from me in Fairfield, Connecticut. I adore her style and have featured their home a few times! She has a very clean and streamlined look throughout her beautiful home and her newly remodeled kitchen is no expectation. Caitlin’s attention to detail is what makes it cozy and lived-in, but very intentional with every item that takes up residence on her wood open shelving or beside her sink. You can see more of Caitlin’s house here, here, and here!
It’s all in the details: A leather vase, glass jars, and a wooden bowl for the scrub brush
Counter Stools for the kids!
Thrift store vintage finds and lovely things from a few surprising sources for a stream-lined collection of beautiful things
A Clean White Uncluttered Kitchen is like a breath of fresh air
It’s all in the details . . .
A white built-in refrigerator and pantry
Caitlin lives only about 20 minutes away, but since we are still in the midst of the pandemic, I asked if she wouldn’t mind sending over the photos. I loved every detail and then had a shortlist of questions that she so generously answered so that I can share them with you!
A: What was the inspiration for your kitchen?
C: The Aesthetics of my kitchen design was inspired by so many beautiful spaces I come across on Pinterest and Instagram.
A: How did we even do it before Pinterest?! I used to have binders full of pages ripped from magazines!
A: What were the goals that you wanted to achieve from redesigning the space?
C: I knew I wanted it to be light and bright because it’s a smaller kitchen. So for that reason, I chose open shelving by the sink so that that wall would feel less obstructed than it would if it were upper cabinetry. I also love how the oak shelves warm up the mostly white kitchen.
A: I love the warm wood shelves with the all-white cabinets and subway tile.
A: What do you love most about your new kitchen?
C: Overall, I am so happy with the end result of our renovation! Our former kitchen felt incredibly closed in and small. With little kids, that made daily life difficult. Removing the wall between the dining room and the kitchen changed all of that! Now, the flow is so much better and our kitchen feels much bigger.
Make sure to scroll to the bottom for a list of resources. Caitlin finds the most amazing things!
Make sure to check out these kitchen posts from my friends! So many great ideas from the best designers/bloggers!
MAKE MINE A SPRITZER
Caitlin has provided resources for most of the items shown. There are a few things that are vintage or purchased at Home Goods or Trader Joe’s. Like the little wood bowl holding her scrub brush. I love that Caitlin has a mix of old and new.

I LOVE Caitlin’s kitchen. It is absolutely wonderful. I love a built in refrig. Who wants to constantly polish the stainless. I have a built in here, and at the lake stainless. Hands down built in for me. I love that her kitchen is very traditional but with modern accents. Very smart, it will never look dated. Great job Caitlin!

Annie, What a pretty and inspiring space! She’s nailed it.. All I want in a kitchen is the fresh feel and open layout. She does it with style and her unique objects make it warm, and interesting too. You always connect with the coolest people! I can’t wait to see the other posts on her home! Thanks for the inspiration Caitlin! x

Kitchens are at the top of my list when it comes to homes. Caitlin’s kitchen is really great. I love the light, bright space, and the pretty details. This style series is always filled with inspiration.
Thank you for that. 💙😊

Such a stunning kitchen! I’m having my kitchen cabinets redone by a local cabinet refinisher in a few weeks, and I love the look of these white cabinets and classic silver white handles, so I think I’m going to do that. My kitchen is smaller and has less natural light than this one, but I’m hoping the white paint on my cabinets will still look good!

I’m so excited to redesign my kitchen. However, a local concrete contractor is working on my outdoorspace at the moment. I’ll let them finish first, then I’ll start working on the inside. Thanks for these lovely ideas!
