I've been fortunate to move into a brand new home with a great kitchen space. There's nothing terribly special about the space itself, so here are a few things that I'd love to add to it to make it uniquely ours.

contemporary indoor pots and planters by Supermarket
LARGE Hanging Air Plant Pod, Red, Brown, Gold By mudpuppy - $42.00 »
Use this to keep valuable counterspace clear, while adding greenery to your kitchen. Air plants are also very low maintenance but offer a lot of personality — bonus.

Hudson Wall Vase By Chive - $29.99 »
This lovely little vase would be perfect for our house. It wouldn't take up a whole lot of counter space and packs a beautiful punch. I rarely ever have fresh florals at home, but this would be perfect for displaying a few air plants.

Marilla Blossoms Teapot - $22.99 »
I'm not sure I'd actually use this little teapot, but it'd be so adorable sitting atop an open shelf in my kitchen. I love the dainty, yellow buds.
contemporary chandeliers by Supermarket
Heavy Guy Chandelier, White By MVOS - $139.95 »
Our current light fixture in the dining space has got to go. It's not as bad as our last place, but it's just so dated. It's an easy thing to swap out since we're renting. A modern white chandelier would move the modern thread in our furniture to the rest of the home.
contemporary ceiling lighting by Supermarket
Early Bird International By perch - $205.00 »
This pendant fixture might not make enough of a presence in our large space to make much of an impact, but I like it a lot.

Abstraction Pendant Light, Winter Branches, White By Perhacs Studio - $240.00 »
I love this pendant! The modern lines with the warm wood texture would be perfect in our space. It would also cast some fun shadows, which I'm sure Penelope would love.
contemporary kitchen tools by Supermarket
Felted Pebble Coaster, Olive-White By delica - $28.00 »
I need a collection of coasters to protect the new table. These felt versions are so gorgeous! I love the white stripe running through each one. I also love how each piece is unique.

Wool Felt Coaster By MOUFELT. llc - $22.00 »
Use these to pack a punch of color on your table, while protecting the finish. The wool felt coasters come in different colors.
contemporary table linens by Design Public
Chilewich Grid Runner - $50.00 »
I love the simplicity and texture in this grid table runner. This would look so lovely across a rustic tabletop.

Thomas Paul Geo/Metric Napkin Set - $70.00 »
This geometric napkin set is fantastic! Stripes are so vogue in fashion these days. I do love that there's more to this napkin than a straight stripe.

Brightened Bloom Kitchen Sink Mat - $14.99 »
My sink could definitely use a pop of color! This little sink mat would definitely do the trick — at least when no dishes are filling it, which is almost never.
modern vases by Darlybird
Orange Wall Dots Vase - $17.00 »
This wall-mounted vase is so fun! It is like a big polka dot on the wall if it doesn't have flowers in it. This would go really well on a wall with mounted platters and clocks.
contemporary artwork by Sycamore Street Press
Eating Off the Floor Print - $35.00 »
This print is meant with babies in mind, but this would surely go well in my kitchen too.
contemporary mailboxes by Supermarket
Letter Holder Wood Mail Organizer OSCAR By LESS & MORE Vienna - $64.00 »
I never quite know what to do with the mail once I bring it in the house. Our landlord gets a lot of mail at our address. This would be a perfect way to organize all of it so it doesn't get lost. I love the simple lines and the pretty angles.

smwtfs 02 By the last attempt at greatness - $80.00 »
First, this is a gorgeous pill organizer. Second, it could totally be used for organizing spices in the kitchen. I need a better way to organize mine.
modern dinnerware by CB2

Funhouse Dinnerware - $4.95 »
These bowls would be the perfect addition to our all-white serveware. It's white, but not bland by any stretch.

From the Rain by Jolby - $45.00 »
Oh, this mug is great! I love the cheery hand-drawn elements. A set of two would be so lovely displayed on a rustic, reclaimed wood shelf.
contemporary candles and candle holders by AllModern
White Season Hurricanes - Set of Two by notNeutral - $25.20 »
I love these hurricanes! They come in three different colors, but I'd likely order white. With my white plates, white bowls and white linens, the texture on these candle holders would pack a punch.
contemporary serveware by Supermarket
Little Whirl Serving Dish from Kim Westad - $78.00 »
We could certainly use more unique serveware to brighten up the place for entertaining.
contemporary serveware by Darlybird
Felix Platter - $25.00 »
I love the graphic nature of this plate. The bold print with the black and white would surely pop on my all-white tabletop. It would also go well with any other color I decide to decorate with.
