Appliance gifts have received a bad rap over the years. Not everyone loves getting a gift thats more practical but in todays post I hope to change your mind!
Most of us have long ago forgot about our old toasters, kettles, coffee makers etc. They sit on our counter tops and do their jobs but they definitely don’t look pretty.I love finding kitchen decor thats both practical and beautiful. If its going to sit on my counter, I want it to at least look good!
Nowadays there are so many beautiful options for small appliances like toasts, kettles, pans, coffee makers, mixers etc. Why settle for a boring basic microwave,when you can sit a cute retro one on your counter instead! Plus you’ll save on buying tons of kitchen decor knick knacks, because it works as both function and beauty, freeing up your counters and making your kitchen that much cuter.

This pan has rave reviews and I would love to get my hands on one! It does everything you need all in one pan and comes in an amazing array of colors.

Haven Black and Copper Toaster
I bought the matching tea kettle, and just ordered this 4 slot toaster. Love the retro vibe with modern black and copper accents!

Haden Silt Green Dorchester Microwave
We have a mint green retro microwave sitting on our counter and get compliments on it all the time! I love the slate blue color of this microwave and the fun wooden accents.

Smeg is probably the most well known retro appliance provider, and for good reason. Everything they make is stunning and looks beautiful no matter your home decor style. It can be on the pricer side though, however their quality is amazing and worth the price tag.

Haden Silt Green Dorchester Ultra Drip Coffee Maker
Taking your old fashioned drip coffee maker up a notch with this beautiful silt green version from Haden.

Ventray Stand Mixer 6-Speed 4.5-Quart Stainless Steel Bowl with Pouring Shield – Cream Beige
I love kitchen aid but there’s something so refreshing and vintage about this beautiful mixer from Ventray.

Ariete Vintage 850 Watt 0.9 Liter Kitchen Countertop Espresso Coffee Machine with Frothing Wand
This espresso machine takes me back to one of my favourite coffee shops in Edmonton. It had a huge white vintage esq espresso machine and I always thought it would be beautiful in a kitchen, though a bit big. This is the perfect alternative.

Haden tea kettle black and copper
Love this tea kettle. Comes in more colors but I am partial to this black and copper or the cream.

Haden Silt Green Dorchester Toaster
Love this toaster! Another great option if your into this bold pistachio color, which in my opinion is basically a neutral and never goes out of style!
