Budget-Friendly Kitchen Design Hacks

It can be said that the kitchen is the heart of the home. The kitchen acts as a space where the family can bond over a meal and provides opportunities where guests can be made to feel welcome, perhaps over a freshly baked pie. For a kitchen to accomplish all these things, it has to give off a comfortable vibe. This can be achieved with a few kitchen modifications.

However, not every household can shell out $20,000 in one go, which is the average cost for a standard kitchen remodeling. The good news is you can give your kitchen a makeover for a lot cheaper. This article lists a few wallet-friendly kitchen remodeling ideas.

Beauty in Small Doses

When done right, small, seemingly inconspicuous changes in the kitchen can pack a pretty potent design punch. Start with your kitchen fixtures such as cabinet handles, faucets, knobs and even your rugs. The best part? They come at almost no cost to you. You can scour vintage shops and secondhand stores for these items. 

Accent Wall

Create an accent wall that will draw the attention of everyone who will step foot in your kitchen. This can be achieved by choosing a wallpaper design that stands out but won’t clash with the general theme of your kitchen. You can also choose a vibrant paint color.

Update Your Shelves

When you change or add kitchen shelves, you’re adding more storage space and making your kitchen look less cluttered. Open shelves work especially great because they provide easy access to your cooking implements, plus you can just put everything back once you’re done.

Lighting

Satisfied with how your kitchen looks? Try changing up the lighting to, well, see your kitchen in a different light. Warm white lighting that cast a yellowish-white glow  are best for kitchens.
