Here are a few simple tips that will help you keep your kitchen functional as well as beautiful.
Be creative with glass displays. If you have glass pane cabinets, display some pretty wineglasses on the second shelf and keep the use everyday items on the bottom. You can also install extra racks that will allow you to hang some of those beautiful wineglasses. You should consider changing the decorative items in your cabinet with the changing season. You should also change the other decorations in your kitchen with the changing seasons. This includes your apron, potholders, tea towels, and other decorative items. You can have holly and mistletoe hanging around Christmas, fake bats and pumpkins around Halloween, hearts and flowers for Valentine's Day, etc...

Keep the top of your refrigerator clean. A modest display of books, especially cookbooks can be quite attractive. When you keep them at an arm's reach it increases the amount of tasty treats that will make an appearance. Using decorative bookends makes your space looks beautiful and will also ensure that your books aren't falling all over the place.
Sort and organize. This is an important element of decorating in the kitchen or anywhere else. You have to decorate with a clean slate for you to work more efficiently. If the kitchen counter is full of unnecessary things, take time to sort them out. What are the things you no longer use? What do you need on special occasions? What do you need for everyday cooking? By organizing your kitchen utensils, you're paving a way for a cleaner and more orderly space.
Plants are a very positive addition to your kitchen. If you have a window in your kitchen and the available counter space, add a bit of life with a plant. If you can't remember to water them, set an alarm on your cell phone once a week that says to water plants. Everybody has a cell phone now a day and uses the alarm or calendar features on them quite frequently. A plant doesn't only look beautiful, but it cleans the air of the pollution and gives you oxygen in the atmosphere.
Area rugs. No decorating will ever be complete without area rugs. These are effective decorative items and protective aids for the floor. Rugs will give comfort to tired feet, protection against grease, stain and dirt, and beauty to the space. Use rugs that suit the current theme and motif of the kitchen, and those that are easy to wash.
