Makeovers and kitchen design ideas for next home improvement project

Are you thinking of remodeling your kitchen? How far are you willing to go to bring it back to life? Today’s newest interior décor trends are focused on splashes of color, unconventional materials, and drawers on display. If your cooking space is dull and unappealing, now it would be an excellent time to improve it. There’s no need to invest a lot of money on massive redecorations; however, you must use your imagination to make your space look chic and feel comfortable. Here are some kitchen design ideas you might like to use on your next home improvement project.

Kitchenware on display

Whether you’re crazy about the minimalist style, or you’d rather keep it classic, this spring season kitchen cabinets don’t have doors anymore. In fact, you can even tear cabinets down completely and use the wood to make shelves. Open shelving is an excellent way of bringing some color into your cooking space, especially if the space is limited. A couple of simple wooden shelves placed above (or close) to the sink are a stylish decorating idea, but also a practical one.

Painted cabinets and walls

Repainting kitchen cabinets is a lot easier than you’d think. The secret to a successful project is to pay close attention to the details. First of all, choose a color that matches with the rest of your kitchen décor; next, take down the cabinets and remove the doors and knobs. There’s more than one style of painting you can use, so if you’re not really an expert, spray paint is the best alternative you have. In difficult corners, use a brush for smooth coverage. As the cabinets dry outside, you can take advantage and paint the walls too. Painted kitchens smell so fresh and new, not to mention that they make homeowners feel like they just walked into a different kitchen.

Chic kitchen flooring

Does your kitchen floor look old-fashioned and unappealing? Aren’t you tired of having to look at the same boring color every day? Well then, maybe it’s time to opt for something else; the problem is very few homeowners get excited at the thought of changing the floor. The mere thought of having to take out all the furniture terrifies them. Look on the bright side though – wouldn’t you feel more comfortable walking into a kitchen covered with bamboo tiles, or maybe ceramic?

Accessorize

Accessorized kitchens are much more interesting and appealing. They look and feel lively, they’re welcoming and they can literally improve your day. How do you adorn a kitchen to make it stand out (and without spending a fortune)? The most ingenious way of beautifying a kitchen is with flowers. Add a couple of flower pots by the window, close to the sink and on the countertops. Make sure they’re year-round flowers; an even better idea is to plant herbs. This way you can use them when you want to cook, not to mention that your kitchen will have the most aromatic scent.

Striking Kitchen Island

Kitchen islands can be extremely useful. Mainly placed in the middle of a kitchen, this item of furniture can be used as dining table, cooking table, or extra storage space. If you want yours to stand out, make sure it is properly adorned and organized. Some kitchen islands have ovens and sinks incorporated, as well as special compartment for chairs. Believe it or not, they can help homeowners save a lot of space, and they’re trendy, too. To make an impression, paint your kitchen island in a more vibrant color to make it stand out – opt for pastels since they’re so high in demand this season.

Are you ready for a complete kitchen makeover? Whether you’re repainting or replacing old furniture with new items, it’s really important to stay focused on a goal. Decide on a style and color palette. You want your kitchen to look properly balanced, elegant and comfortable. This year’s color trend in interior décor is marsala. This beautiful warm combination of brown & red will work perfectly with the dark shade of your kitchen cabinets; and to add a bit more originality, purchase a deep-red table cloth to accentuate the modern appeal of your kitchen.
