Hey there, vintage lovers! It’s your favorite quirky curator here with some exciting news. I recently remodeled my kitchen, and it’s a total mid-century mod dream come true. From the shaker doors to the gold handles, every detail is inspired by the charming style of the 1950s and 60s. And let me tell you, this kitchen is an absolute showstopper. So, grab a cup of coffee, and let me take you on a tour of my vintage-inspired kitchen!
Shaker doors and gold handles
First things first, let’s talk about the shaker doors, a style dating back to the 18th century, and gold handles. These design elements are the backbone of our mid-century mod kitchen. The shaker doors are simple and elegant, while the gold handles add a touch of glamour and sophistication. Together, they create a timeless look that will never go out of style.
Glass cabinet doors
One of my favorite details in this kitchen is the glass cabinet doors. They imitate the older charm of a china cabinet, displaying our vintage dishes and glassware in all their glory. It’s a beautiful way to showcase our collection and adds to the overall vintage vibe of the space.
Bright blue and white cabinets
We went with bright blue, and white cabinets for our kitchen remodel, and let me tell you, it’s a match made in vintage heaven. The blue is a nod to the bold colors of mid-century mod, while the white keeps the space feeling fresh and modern. Plus, white is so in right now, and I am absolutely loving it!
Quartz counters with 5 inch baseboards
We wanted our countertops to be both beautiful and functional, so we went with quartz. It’s durable, easy to clean, and looks stunning paired with the bright blue and white cabinets. And to add a touch of luxury, we opted for 5 inch baseboards, which give the counters a more substantial and high-end feel.
Pull-out spice racks, utensil holders, and trash cans
We didn’t want to sacrifice function for style, so we made sure to include some modern luxuries in our kitchen remodel. We installed pull-out spice racks, utensil holders, and trash cans to keep everything organized and easily accessible. These little touches make all the difference when it comes to making a kitchen that’s both beautiful and practical.
Wood floors
For the flooring, we went with beautiful, natural wood. It adds warmth and texture to the space and pairs perfectly with the vintage-inspired design elements. Plus, it’s durable and easy to clean, making it a practical choice for a high-traffic area like the kitchen.
Mid-century mod accessories
To tie everything together, we added some mid-century mod accessories throughout the space. A vintage tin sign on the countertop, a silver toaster, and some retro-inspired dish towels all add to the overall vibe of the kitchen. These little details make the space feel cohesive and complete.
A touch of vintage heaven meets modern luxury
In the end, our mid-century mod kitchen remodel is a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern luxury. The bright blue and white cabinets, shaker doors, gold handles, glass cabinet doors, quartz counters, pull-out spice racks, wood floors, and mid-century mod accessories all work together to create a space that’s both beautiful and functional. It’s a touch of vintage heaven in the heart of our home.
Some Parting Thoughts
If you’re considering a kitchen remodel, I highly recommend going with a mid-century mod design. It’s a timeless style that’s both charming and sophisticated. And with modern luxuries like pull-out spice racks and utensil holders, you don’t have to sacrifice function for style. So, go ahead and channel your inner vintage designer, and bring some mid-century mod flair into your kitchen. You won’t regret it!

Hey there, I'm Maribel Garcia Valls, and I'm all about vintage curation, room design, and graphic design. I've been obsessed with design ever since I was a kid, and I would always rearrange and style different spaces in my house. Thrift stores and garage sales are my jam, and I love discovering unique and eclectic pieces to add to my collection. When it comes to design, I'm all about pops of color and creating quirky and fun digital designs. I'm also a yoga and meditation teacher, and I use these tools as a way to express my creativity, along with journaling. While I have a Masters in Public Health and a Master's Certificate in Executive Coaching, my heart is always drawn to the more creative arts. For me, design is not just a hobby, it's a way of life. I believe that good design should be accessible to everyone, and I'm always on the lookout for inspiration in the world around me. Vintage curation, room design, writing, graphic design, and drawing are just a few of my passions, and I'm constantly exploring and expanding my skills with each new project. You can find my vintage booth at the Antique Gallery Round Rock: Booth C-22.
