4 Great Strategies for Customizing Contemporary Kitchen Cabinets
If you have perfectly solid kitchen cabinets, but would like to change the feel of your kitchen to better reflect your character, there are many ways to alter the look of your kitchen cabinets.
First of all, you may just want to change the color of your cabinets and this can be done by painting them a light colour, perhaps off-white, and then using a stencil to add a design of your choice. There are so many templates to choose from that you will surely find the one you are looking for.
Maybe you have solid doors on your cabinets and this makes your kitchen look darker than you’d like. If this is the case, you may want to consider reinstalling glass doors or glass inserts on existing doors. This will add light to your kitchen as the glass will reflect natural light making it a lighter and airier place to work. You may want to have frosted glass inserts, which are popular right now. If you already have glass doors, but would like to have frosted doors, you can purchase a frosted glass spray that works like a spray paint and changes plain glass to frosted.
This is an inexpensive way to personalize your cabinets. There are also stained glass inserts for kitchen cabinet doors and they are an eye-catching way to revitalize your cabinets and are also a talking point if you need one. You can buy them ready to use or have an artist make glass inserts for your designs. They can be placed in all cabinets or just one or two, depending on how you feel or how much money you have to spend.
If you don’t have a lot of money to spend, but you really feel like you need to accessorize your custom contemporary kitchen cabinets, you may want to go for a more unusual way of doing it. You can add birch branches to cabinet doors, and since they are easy to find, it only takes a little effort on your part to cut them to the right lengths and attach them with wood glue. You can sand and varnish the branches before gluing them to the doors or leave them in their natural state. How much cheaper could it be to renovate your contemporary kitchen cabinets? If you don’t want to wander around looking for birch branches, there is grass wallpaper, which can be cut into rectangles and placed in the middle of kitchen cabinet doors, and this creates a green feel in your kitchen.
You may just want to change your door handles and have fun browsing antique stores or markets to find antique handles that are just what you are looking for. Just changing a small detail in your kitchen cabinet can make a difference.
Customizing your contemporary kitchen cabinets doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Think creatively and see what amazing ideas come to mind. You know the end result will be that you enjoy your contemporary kitchen cabinets.
