From Janet February 9, 2010
I have to admit that when I walked onto the set of the Martha Stewart Show a couple of weeks ago, I was a bit star struck—not just by Martha, but also by her set kitchen, which is modeled after the one in her Bedford, New York, house. Here are a few ideas for accessorizing the look (for appliance, cookware, and countertop resources listings, go to Martha Stewart).
Above: We like the open shelving, the vintage pitchers used for utensil storage, the vintage rolling pins as decor, and the understated simple cabinet knobs. The cabinet paint is Mourning Dove Gray (MS 151) and the wall paint is Evening Moth (MS 173), both from the Martha Stewart Colors line, which will be sold through Home Depot beginning in March of 2010.
Above: Simple Baldwin Round Cabinet Knob in satin nickel finish; $6 for 1-inch diameter knob at Designer Hardware.
Above: Martha Stewart's porcelain Large Whiteware Pitcher is $32 at Macy's. See 10 Easy Pieces: Basic Kitchen Pitchers for more ideas.
Above: Vintage Rolling Pins; collected from antiques and vintage stores across the US; $49 each at Napa Style.
Above: White marble mortar and pestle by Magnus Lundstrum; $60 at the Cooper Hewitt Shop.
Above: Martha's sink is a custom double-width marble sink outfitted with a pair of Czech & Speake Edwardian Cross Top Two-Hole Sink Bridge Mixers. The curved spout is pivotable for ease of use; available in chrome, platinum, platinum matte, or Durabrass finishes; £550 for the 8-inch-spread chrome faucet at Czech & Speake.
Above: Porcelain Soap Dish; $12 at Brook Farm General.
Above: We're converts to the Martha Stewart Clean Home line, which features products that are 99 percent plant- and mineral-based, with no added fragrances or coloring. We especially like the Martha Stewart Clean Dish/Hand Soap with peel-off label, and the unscented Martha Stewart Clean ishwasher Detergent. Available through Amazon and Home Depot.
Above We like the Limmaren Bottles for dispensing dishwashing liquid; $7.99 for a set of three bottles at Ikea. For more ideas see Domestic Science: Sink Accessory Roundup.

Like how the open shelving adjusts in the first image. No lines of empty holes.
while i think that martha's kitchen is quite lovely, francesca's kitchen is divine!
Martha makes a nice kitchen, but we just tried this dishwashing detergent and I can easily say it is the worst we have ever tried. Had to stop using it after two failed attempts...
This is a classic case of why Martha Stewart and her staff have made such simple things, beautiful, organized, and functional. The simple lighting in the shelves, decorative everyday items, and clean, muted colors. Shear beauty!! Love LOVE! Can't wait until the Martha Stewart paint line comes out, I need to stock up on my paint rollers now.. watch out house!
You CANNOT beat this space. That double marble sink is my dream sink and I love that Traulson or Sub-Zero refrig with the glass door. Ah, if life could always look so perfect!! Once again, Martha is the tops!
If only my kitchen were so organized - and big!
words cannot express the amazingness.
I want Martha's kitchen for ME! :)
I just tried looking for the paint colors at Home Depot. I think the names above are the Lowe's names...do you know what the HD equivalents are?
