If you are extremely neat, you can take an ordinary carpet with an oriental pattern (still, its better to choose not very expensive).
Twigs in high vases. Twigs will stand longer than the cut flowers, and besides, they look very elegant. A bunch of twigs, which vary depending on the time of year, put in a tall vase is an easy way to improve the atmosphere in the kitchen.
