Famous director and screenwriter Nancy Meyers<\/a> may be known for writing and directing box office hits like \u201cFather of the Bride,\u201d \u201cSomething\u2019s Gotta Give,\u201d and \u201cIt\u2019s Complicated,\u201d but it\u2019s her interior design style that has stuck with so many<\/a> long after her movies have left theaters \u2013 especially those dreamy kitchens<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But one doesn\u2019t have to live in Hollywood or even have a movie star salary to enjoy a Nancy Meyers kitchen. With more and more small furniture makers placing their handmade wares on Etsy<\/a>, anyone can recreate a Nancy-inspired dream kitchen in their very own home.<\/p>\n

Here we take a look at five key elements of every Nancy Meyers kitchen, along with some tips for recreating the experience chez nous.<\/p>\n

THE KITCHEN ISLAND<\/h3>\n

Perhaps the most essential element of any Nancy Meyers kitchen is the island \u2013 a place where food is served, gossip is spilled, and lots of drama takes place. This handcrafted kitchen island from Etsy seller FineKitchenIsland<\/a> is almost as big as Diane Keaton\u2019s in \u201cSomething\u2019s Gotta Give\u201d (often referred to as<\/a> \u201cthe most-copied kitchen of all time\u201d).<\/p>\n

THE DINNER TABLE<\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t have the space for a kitchen island the size of a queen bed? A farmhouse table will easily bring that comfy, family-friendly feel to your kitchen space. Etsy is filled with a range of beautiful farmhouse tables<\/a>, but we especially like this one from VVK Interiors<\/a>. Add a floral arrangement and a nice breakfast spread and pretend like you\u2019re in 1998\u2019s \u201cThe Parent Trap\u201d having pancakes with Annie\u2026or was it Hallie?<\/p>\n

THE LIGHTING<\/h3>\n

The lighting in Nancy Meyers\u2019s kitchens is everything, with lots of natural light during the day and a comforting warm glow in the evening. To achieve this ambiance, we recommend dome lights placed above your kitchen island or dining table. For an updated look, try a modern farmhouse pendant like these from seller VIXTERIOR<\/a>.<\/p>\n

THE CHEF\u2019S TOOLS<\/h3>\n

Ever wish you were Meryl Streep in\u00a0 2009\u2019s \u201cIt\u2019s Complicated\u201d as she dramatically \u201ccooks her way through men<\/a>\u201d and navigates the challenges of dating both her architect and her ex? Probably not, but we bet you\u2019ve dreamed about her kitchen. Cookware is always on full display in Nancy\u2019s kitchens, which is why we love this copper ceiling pot rack from ProperCopperDesign<\/a>.<\/p>\n

THE DECOR<\/h3>\n

Whether you like the old school look of \u201cFather of the Bride\u201d or the more modern feel of \u201cThe Intern,\u201d Nancy Meyers films are filled with decor inspiration to give your kitchen that movie star quality. Display the things you love alongside floral or fruit arrangements and see your kitchen magically transform into your own Hollywood set.<\/p>\n
