this kitchen connects to a small living room with a view of the pool. how can I decorate without any renovations? should I put photos above the cabinets or just leave that space blank? Thank you!

I wouldn't want to clutter it up. Is there a wall across from the sink that can have art on it?

I have vases and a set of wine glasses on top of my hutch because I don't have room to store them. Wait until you move in and see if you need that space for storage.

Enjoy - looks like a cute place. A view of the pool is good.

Some colorful art canvases would look good above the cabinets. Usually I wouldn't suggest putting anything above the cabinets, but there's so much space there & some color would be fun.

Since you don't have much storage space, how about finding some nice crates that will fit above the cabinets? You can store less used items there. You can even attach something artsy to the faces of the crates, making them dual purpose storage.
