Rustic Kitchen from Remodelista Uses Warehouse Pendant Light

Remodelista is a well-known design website, featuring a “Steal This Look” section. While browsing this section, we rediscovered a rustic kitchen from back in 2008.

By using open shelving underneath the wooden counters, pots and pans are displayed for an even more rustic feel, as well as vintage crates for further organization.
