Kitchen Decorating Ideas


A boring, dated kitchen can have you searching for kitchen decorating ideas. There are several things you can do to give your kitchen a facelift without having to hire a general contractor. Begin with scoping out the good and bad about your kitchen.

If you have cabinets that are dated, you might try giving them a quick pick me up with paint. You can either paint your cabinets a color or look for cabinet staining kits that give you a wood look.

Paint will give you an instant makeover without having to pay top dollar to replace cabinets.

A simple change such as changing the pulls on drawers and cabinets can also bring a dated kitchen into the modern area. Look online for deals on buying them in bulk if you have a lot of cabinets that need hardware.

Flooring presents another challenge to your kitchen’s look. If your flooring is dated there are many options.

Many people add laminate flooring to the kitchen. It’s durable, easy to clean, and always looks lovely. If that’s too much for your budget, there are other solutions.

Look for vinyl flooring that is much less expensive. Vinyl flooring has come a long way in recent years. You can buy peel and stick tiles that look like wood, stone, or tile or you can buy large sheets with the same effects. Updating your flooring can give a quick lift.

Fixtures are another area where a kitchen can appear dated. You can replace faucets and light fixtures quickly and change the entire look of the room. Find fixtures that are simple and modern.

If you’re handy, you can replace them yourself. If not, you can often work with a retailer to pay for installation.

Your kitchen walls can also use a coat of paint to bring them back to life.

Choose a fresh color that’s fairly neutral so that you can change your look without having to start all over. You’ll be amazed what painting the walls can do.

One area where people can spend a lot of money is countertops. If your countertops are dated, you can replace them with more modern countertops. If you can’t afford to replace your countertops you have several options.

Many people choose to add tile to countertops to modernize them. If you can’t afford granite, you might be able to afford granite tile.

You can also purchase kits that help you to paint your countertops to look like faux granite. Kitchen decorating ideas can bring your kitchen into the modern area without having to break the bank.

Not only can decorating on a budget be fun, but if creatively undertaken, it can also be done with flair and style.

The first thing you should remember when undertaking creative DIY home decor or renovations projects, is that there are no rules except those that you set for yourself.

So as long as you are willing to invest your time and energy, then you should be able to make a room go from plain to perfect in no time at all.
