Large or small, incorporating a light-filled breakfast nook into your home is the perfect way to make the most of extra space in or around your kitchen.
A small breakfast nook is not just an idea for the tiny apartment of the modest contemporary home.
As the benchmark of kitchen furniture, banquettes are the perfect addition to any dining area. We've gathered a collection of the most popular styles.

My husband, known around these parts as Mr. Hippie, is a general contractor in general and a roofer, specifically. We both have dreams of building our own house some day. I actually clipped a house plan from our newspaper many years ago. It is the epitome of my dream house. My good PA friends, the Tans, also have an amazing house that has also all the features I love. As a matter of fact, if we built a house, we would pattern it somewhat after theirs, with a simpler roof line. (says the roofer in the family) By perusing my Pinterest boards devoted to my dream house and dream kitchen, it would not take you long to see just what house features are really important to me. What catches my eye... -A two story entrance ROOM with a gorgeous staircase. Beautiful spindles and a bend with a landing, or a nice curve. source -Pantries with lots of room for orderly and ascetic food storage. source -Functional kitchens with white cabinets, and a huge island for food prep and for gathering. source -Glass windows on some kitchen cupboard doors. source How about that ladder? -Open plate and stemware racks for storing and display. -Pendant lighting and lots of cupboards and counter space. -A separate formal dining room. -Living room with cathedral ceilings, and (in my dream, dream house) a balcony over looking the living room. source -Fireplaces and lots of built in bookshelves. source source -Bay windows and cozy window nooks for reading and drinking tea. source -Enough bedrooms for a boys' room, girls' room, guest bedroom and master bedroom. source -An ensuite master bathroom with a luxuriously tiled shower. Glass door. Maybe not a tub. source source -A big enough bedroom to hold my wing chairs, bed, and dressers with out being crowded. And while being uber romantic! source -A huge front porch for being (blatantly) nosy... source -Mudroom and laundry room that isn't just tucked into the basement, but that looks awesome too. I spend enough of my time there, it may as well look nice.=) source -A home office that speaks of order and beauty. A refreshing place for the soul. A place of peace in which to create. And, since we are obviously going all out... -An infinity edge pool. source So, maybe tomorrow's post topic should be, How to Win the Lottery. It would tie in great with today's dream house post, and yesterday's How to Win a Blog Giveaway. I love my house. I am very thankful for my house. I actually have a Pinterest boards devoted to it too. And, I will keep using my house to glorify the Lord and bless people. But, maybe someday...maybe... If money were no object, what would you put in your dream house? Tell me in the comments. Btw, I guess now would be as good a time as any to encourage you to follow my boards on Pinterest. You can do that here.
