I found 15 pretty pieces to elevate your kitchen, and they're all under $100
I couldn't believe it, either


Most Curated is a monthly series in which one editor, team member or friend of Livingetc will share the top 15 items on their current wish list.
Don't get me wrong—I love my Los Angeles apartment (I live 10 minutes from the beach, after all), but my one complaint is its size. It's quite tiny, especially my combined kitchen and dining area. However, now that I've lived here for three years, I've become somewhat of an expert in small-space living (at least a self-proclaimed expert, anyway). I'm extremely intentional when it comes to buying pieces for my home. Anything I add must check two important boxes: beautiful and functional. If an item also happens to be affordable, then consider me sold. Below are 15 under-$100 kitchen items I think are worth taking home.
I like to keep my most-used cookware out on the counter (or in this case, on the stove) to save space, which means it must act as décor as well. I make tea nearly every evening, so my kettle gets a ton of use. This one is worthy of being on display and adds some welcome color to my otherwise neutral kitchen.
I can't get over how gorgeous these marble cheese knives are. I'm tempted to buy the matching tray.
