7 cheap ideas to decorate the kitchen
Despite what you may read in the trendiest kitchen design magazines, updating the look of your kitchen really doesn’t require spending a lot of time and money. There are some easy and inexpensive ways to give your kitchen a whole new look.
A few small changes here and there that you can make to your kitchen can still go a long way in the way your kitchen looks. You can get ideas about what you would like to incorporate into your kitchen decorating and remodeling project from books, magazines, and Internet sites that discuss kitchen design ideas.
There are 7 relatively low-cost kitchen decorating ideas to create a beautiful kitchen:
1. Replacement of cabinet doors and fronts. Then you can face the remaining accessories. This will greatly change the appearance of your kitchen.
2. Paint your cabinets white and change the hardware, such as knobs, handles or pulls.
3. The use of solid core MFD doors, which are made of wood or medium density fiberboard. They can be installed on a solid door base. This type of door can be painted to create any look you want.
4. Using color to renovate the kitchen is another example of cheap kitchen decoration. You can paint your walls and cabinets. When it comes to painting your existing cabinets, you can use decorative finishes. Some examples are creating a weathered finish to add an aged look and faux and glaze finishes. All of these are easy to do and cost effective.
5. Another area of the kitchen that you can easily update is the faucet and sink. It is possible to find moderately priced sinks that can cost between $50 and $300. They are also available in many colors and styles. Porcelain, stainless steel and acrylic are the materials available for the sinks. In the case of faucets, you will find that they are available in many styles and finishes, and depending on the type of faucet, the price can range from $50 to $750.
6. Another great affordable kitchen decorating idea is to add a kitchen island. Kitchen islands are great for adding more counter space to the kitchen and providing a gathering place. If you don’t have enough money or space to add a permanent kitchen island, but would like the benefits of one, you might consider getting a kitchen cart as an alternative. A kitchen cart may have wheels for rolling, as well as drawers, shelves, and places to hang utensils. Because they are on wheels, they can clear their way.
7. If your kitchen decorating budget is so small that you can only afford to remodel a small area of your kitchen, you might consider adding a kitchen backsplash. A new kitchen backsplash can really dress up a drab, uninspiring kitchen. Kitchen backsplashes are available in many different styles, colors, and materials. Materials used for backsplashes can include wood, porcelain, natural stone, glass, stainless steel, and even wallpaper. Costs vary depending on the material you select.
So you can see that redecorating your kitchen can be something as simple as changing the hardware on your existing cabinets or painting the walls. Just a small change can go a long way to make your kitchen look like new.
