And as kitchen trends this year are all about layered, unique, personality-filled spaces, these pieces are the perfect additions to infuse a healthy dose of character to your design.
Artwork is the perfect way to invite character and style into your kitchen. A room-themed piece like this one is a great way to bring in a decorative feature without taking up precious countertop space. Plus, it's available to buy framed – with 12 color options to choose between – or frameless.

A good quality, wooden cutting board is a must-have in every kitchen. It's one kitchenware item that is frequently used, but it also doubles up as decor when displayed on shelving or propped against the wall on your countertops. For a stylish vignette, layer with your favorite recipe books and candles.
Nothing adds a touch of luxury to your kitchen like marble decor. To add a decorative element to your space, add a marble tray like this one to your island or countertops topped with a candle, bud vase, or even a pretty olive oil bottle. It not only looks stylish but gives miscellaneous items a more intentional home.
The MacKenzie-Childs check range is always hugely sought after by homeowners and designers alike, and you can get your hands on the fabulous utensil crock at Wayfair. Offered in this black and white design as well as blue and white, it's a bold yet playful option for storing your essential utensils.
2025 kitchen trends are all about layered design and inviting warmth and comfort into schemes, so a beautiful rug is a must-have. In most kitchen layouts, a runner is the best fit – a classic, vintage-inspired design in a neutral colorway like this one will truly stand the test of time – functionally and stylistically.
Olive oil and stylish cruets have become the best gifts for hosts, but there's no reason you can't treat yourself to one. This green glass design is utterly chic – it's not only way nicer to look at on your countertops, but it instant adds to your kitchen decor. If you didn't already keep your oil out, you will now.

Your kitchen deserves a signature scent, just like the rest of your home. This cashmere-scented candle is cozy and luxurious – and can form part of your kitchen decor, too.
If you have items or ingredients that you like to have within easy reach, they likely live on your kitchen countertops or open shelving. So, storing them in pretty canisters that match the aesthetic of your kitchen is a must. This traditional-style set will look great in rustic and country kitchens.
We're big fans of making practical kitchen essentials more aesthetically pleasing. and if there's one item that can be a bit of an eyesore, it's dish soap. Instead, invest in some pretty reusable designs like this duo, which comes with a tray for them to sit on and stylish, vintage-inspired labels that you can add.
Who says your kitchen towels need to be boring? A pretty set in your desired color palette is an easy way to add a more decorative element to your space.

An alternative to a glass oil cruet, this oil can oozes character. Offered in three colors that feel oh-so authentic, aside from its obvious function, it offers a touch of Italian kitchen decor to your space. Less chic and more rustic, it's a staple for summer soirees and beyond – guaranteeing you're the host with the most.
