Hello World! Welcome Friends! When you think about doing something to the kitchen, it is typically a renovation or other large projects. And while there is a lot of joy to be found in putting different kitchen styles on a Pinterest board, sometimes our budgets and time just don’t stretch that far.
But there are many things that you can do to change how your kitchen looks without breaking the bank on a total renovation.

Hardware
If you hate the color of the cupboards, or maybe the style, then they are one of the ways you can make a pretty significant impact without spending too much cash. You can replace the handles quickly with a few cute styles from most hardware stores, and a lick of paint will change the whole look. If you have melamine, then you might be happy to hear there is a range of melamine paints that can help you make that change.
Countertops
Countertops can be a real bugbear for many. And while we used to have to replace the whole thing, we are lucky that there are now a number of options. A popular option is the stickers that are designed to be used to cover worktops. Another choice is that you can add large cutting boards, they will take up plenty of space – while you save up for the design that you want.
Appliances
If it has been a while since you had your appliances looked at, then it might be time to have them given the once over by an appliance repair specialist. This will make sure that you get the longevity out of the goods in question.
Make sure that you give them an excellent clean and maintain them well, and you will usually get many years out of them.
Lighting
The lights in a room can make a huge difference in how the whole room looks. But if you want to have a slightly more modern feel, then small lights attached under your cabinets can have a huge impact. Most of the led lights are battery operated and easy to attach and remove. They look great at night, too, instead of having the full light on.
Walls
Putting a new color on the wall can be a significant change. You can change the color, or you can freshen up what you already have. If you have a wall that is free, you can create a gallery wall, or add some shelving to display some of your favorite plates and teapots.
Space
Many people wish they had more space. However, most people have plenty of space, but it isn’t always used in the best way. Adding an extra shelf in the cabinets, looking at the ceiling as possible storage options, and adding a lazy susan can help give you more space to work with.
The key is to do things slowly, this way you won’t spend too much in one go, and you can carefully look at all of the options that you have in terms of price, materials, and color.
