6 Things That Are Dating Your Kitchen

      Paint is one of the most inexpensive and quickest ways to update your space. If you feel like your dark-colored kitchen is cramped, change your walls to an off-white or greige. This alteration will reflect light and help to embody an open space.

     90s polished brass? Try matte black or brushed nickel to give your cabinets a refresh. You can also switch up the style from a detailed traditional pull to a handle with sleek lines. The difference is astonishing!

     Trade-in your 4” laminate backsplash for a complimentary tile. Applying a backsplash from the bottom of the cabinets to the countertop will not only modernize your kitchen but also make it easier to clean up.

      One surface mount light is usually not enough to light up your kitchen. Think about adding recessed lights and/or under-cabinet lights for a major upgrade. You will be surprised at the new and improved cooking experience in your home.

     Although not particularly exciting, getting rid of unneeded items will make your kitchen fresh and ready to go. It is common for homeowners to be complacent with clutter in a kitchen that they are not happy with. Consider donating the waffle maker you have never used or consolidating your pantry items into air-tight bins.

      If you cannot install new cabinets, paint could be the answer. Although tedious, painting your cabinets has a big payoff. Cabinets occupy the most space in your kitchen and it is imperative that they are working in your favor.
