Inexpensive Tips for Stylish Kitchen Decor
Does the look of your kitchen get you down? While there are plenty of inexpensive ways to revitalize your kitchen. You don’t necessarily have to replace flooring, cabinets, or countertops to improve the look of your kitchen. Decorating your kitchen can be as simple as displaying a few trinkets and novelties or putting fresh paint on your walls and cabinets. You may be surprised to learn that you can often achieve impressive results with small changes.
A good place to start is your kitchen walls – is it time for a new coat of paint? If so, will you use the same color or explore a new one? Before you make quick decisions, keep in mind that your existing furniture and cabinetry should blend well with any new colors you choose; otherwise you will spend more time and money to repaint them too to match.
If you want to upgrade the look of your kitchen without repainting every wall, you can focus on smaller areas and still get impressive results. Try using wallpaper borders in complementary patterns and colors to match your existing decor.
Wall stencils are another great idea that can really help your kitchen stand out. You can choose a quote, phrase or mantra that is important to you and have a personalized stencil that you peel off and apply directly to the wall.
Instead of replacing your cabinets entirely, you can often make them look like new with a little selective attention to the cabinet doors. You can paint the front doors and install new handles and hinges. Any of these ideas can dramatically improve the look of your kitchen with very little investment of time or money.
Then finish the look of your kitchen, or if you just want a slight change, you can go for new kitchen curtains and table linens. Altering colors or fabrics can refresh your kitchen enough to update your kitchen without the hit to the wallet.
Try any of these inexpensive tips to upgrade your kitchen decor and enjoy the benefits of a new kitchen without the price tag.
