Ideas for Remodeling Your Kitchen That are Affordable
Custom Search
Kitchen remodeling ideas don’t have to be expensive and they don’t have to mean a total renovation of your kitchen space either.
You can remodel your kitchen in a weekend or even a day using these small, tiny projects that all have a major impact:
Turn a Piece of Furniture Into an Island
Instead of splashing out on an expensive or custom kitchen island, convert an old dresser or side table. Go for a rustic look with a classic farmhouse piece.
And remember to pretreat the wood. You can even opt for something like a wide book shelf or hall table with under-shelving to add extra storage space.
Antique shops and flea markets are always teeming with kitchen helpers, which are essentially banquet dressers that were used in kitchens as both cabinetry and counter space.
Put it against a wall for a classic country look.
Paint the Walls
Painting is one of the cheapest and easiest kitchen remodeling ideas that you could ever implement.
A fresh coat of paint instantly brightens a room while a new color modernizes it. You can get paint on the cheap and the only extra costs are your own man-hours.
Refinish the Cupboards
Like painting, refinishing the cupboards is one of those kitchen remodeling ideas that can be done in a weekend and yet has a major impact.
By just simply repainting your cupboards and installing new hardware (drawer pulls, handles, etc), you can instantly fresh and update your kitchen cupboards and without springing for a whole new kitchen.
Add Shelving and Organization
Often one of our biggest hurdles for good kitchen design is storage space. You may not need to splurge on a full kitchen renovation if all you need is some extra storage or even just smarter storage.
Simple products like lazy Susans, wheeled drawer pulls, tray storage units and hanging storage are all great ways to increase the storage capacity in your kitchen and get yourself organized.
Spend an afternoon looking in stores like The Container Store to get a feel for the products that are available. Then, head home and start to evaluate your kitchen.
Make a plan, measure your spaces, and then go out and buy. By starting with an organization plan, you’ll be less likely to purchase items you don’t need.
New Faucets
Just like all the other small changes listed here, new faucets are one of those perfect kitchen remodeling ideas that can go a long way.
With just a few hundred dollars you can take a kitchen from builder-boring to contemporary wow. Look for tall faucets that are modern and include features like a spray handle.
