Mid-century Modest

Mid-Century Kitchen "Kim's Kitchen" via retrorenovation.com

As I’ve mentioned, I’m renovating my little ranch with a mid-century modern flair and a few art nouveau accents. I came across this video on Etsy and fell in love with the kitchen! Pam Kueber of Retro Renovation is much more brave than I am and her home looks amazing.

Here are some other mid-century “modest” wares that would be nice additions to my collection.
