The Holiday Houses: Kitchens

It's Day 2 of The Holiday Movie Houses Merry-Making.

Today, let's take a good look at The Holiday kitchens.

Now for me, there's no doubt in my mind which kitchen I prefer.

Cameron Diaz'/Amanda's kitchen is large and spacious and airy.

Kate Winslet/ Iris' is small and rather poky but absolutely jam-packed to the rafters with heavenly character.

See that lovely fireplace? Over at the Relics blog this week, we're talking about how to add character to your home by creating the perfect fireside look. 

I love the way, just as in the Something's Gotta Give Beach House, the palette flows from one end of the {considerably smaller} house to the other.

I think it's the colours of Rosehill Cottage that grab me.

I am a total sucker for those greeny-bluey-greys.

A. Total. Sucker.

Let's take a closer, more considered look at the American Modern kitchen. I really do adore those over-sized lanterns.

{I'd nab those in a flash.}

And the range too.

Love it.

But I don't think they got it quite right.

It almost looks as though it's a 2-d kitchen. Do you know what I mean?

There is no personality, and it feels as though it's been completely abandoned. Cold and lifeless.

Is the jury is still out.

Which of the Holiday kitchens do you prefer?

Let the fight begin.....
