farmhouse sinks

While you’re thinking about renovating your kitchen, you may be thinking about everything but the kitchen sink. And indeed, replacing appliances is an important first step to increasing your home’s value.

But don’t disregard the role the sink plays in the kitchen. More than just a place to rinse vegetables and plates, a big farmhouse sink can make or break hand-washing dishes, and can even be a way to pack those drinks in ice during a crowded party.

With so much use, the sink becomes an unexpected focal point in your kitchen. And a great sink goes a long way in adding value and style to the place where you spend time at multiple parts of the day. Take a look at these farmhouse kitchens that add a lot of space and a lot of bang for your buck.

Ohhhh Margaret, I swoon at the sight of a farmhouse sink. So cool to see how such a classic design is being updated to work in modern spaces, too. Curious to hear your take on cast iron…seems to be making a comeback!

I like the kitchen sink above. I want to renovating my kitchen sink but in this moment I do not have the money to renew…
