If you’ve grown tired of your kitchen, updating it doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

With some careful planning, there are plenty of inexpensive ways to freshen up your space.

Art

Hanging art is a simple way to add colour to your kitchen. Be mindful of placement and the possibility of food winding up on your prints.

Streamline your crockery

Add a rug 

If it’s good enough for the bathroom, then it will work in the kitchen too. Just make sure you stay on top of dropped food and clean regularly. 

Change the handles 

You’ll be surprised at the difference such a small change can make. Swapping out the handles can be done in an afternoon and will make the world of difference.
