Fresh Starts & Bold Statements — May 2025

As spring breathes new life into our surroundings, it’s the perfect time to rejuvenate your home. At Hawthorne Kitchens, we believe your space should reflect the vibrancy and freshness of the season. This month, we’re exploring the latest home design trends.


Curves & Soft Edges

Sharp lines are making room for softer silhouettes, and nowhere is that more evident than in bathroom design. Round mirrors are rising in popularity, adding a gentle, sculptural touch that softens the space and creates a calming, spa-like atmosphere.


Natural Materials

Stunning wood cabinetry in the laundry room is a perfect example of how natural materials can transform a space. By embracing options like reclaimed wood, bamboo, and cork, you not only make an eco-conscious choice, but also bring in rich texture, organic warmth, and timeless character. It’s sustainable design that doesn’t compromise on style.


Bold & Beautiful Colours

Move over, all-white kitchens! Homeowners are leaning into striking shades like Benjamin Moore’s Sundance, a radiant golden yellow, and Ice Sculpture, a refreshing pale blue. For added depth, tones like Stonecutter and Harvest Brown bring a grounded, earthy elegance. These colours don’t just warm up a space, they give it personality and presence.


Crowd-Pleasing Strawberry Pie & Other May Recipes

There’s just something magical about strawberries in dessert. That perfect balance of tart and sweet, the way they melt into sugar and crust—it’s irresistible. A strawberry pie is a crowd-pleaser through and through. Find the recipe and more tasty spring recipes for spring below!
