Simple Ways To Refresh And Update Your Kitchen

Simple Ways To Refresh And Update Your Kitchen

The kitchen is one of the most often used areas in the home, especially now that we’re spending more time cooking rather than dining out. A survey has revealed that a third of respondents have started experimenting more in the kitchen, while another poll shows that 71 percent will continue to cook more, since it helps save money and promotes healthy eating habits. Since we’ve started to spend more time making meals at home, it’s the perfect time to give your kitchen a facelift to make it more functional and a pleasant place to be. If you’re worried about the cost, or if you don’t have time for a major remodel, don’t fret. There are simple ways to refresh and update your kitchen without spending a lot of time and money. Here’s what you can do to give your kitchen an instant makeover.

Replace the floors

Replacing the floor is one of the top upgrades in kitchen renovations, with 65 percent of all kitchen remodels last year involving this project. If your kitchen floor has signs of water damage, has extensive scratches, gouges or chips, or if your floor is fading and has numerous stains and shoe markings, then that’s a sure sign that it’s time to replace your floor. While you can certainly use wooden planks or ceramic tiles for this project, using luxury vinyl planks is a more practical way to upgrade your floors. According to a SmartCore flooring review by Household Advice, LVP flooring is one of the highest quality budget flooring options available in the market, and it’s easy to install, ideal for wet areas, and has multiple style options so you can choose a design that will suit your home’s aesthetics. To install, simply clean the floor, and lay down the vinyl planks, locking them in place by using a knocking hammer. After 24 hours, you can return all the big appliances and furniture and enjoy your new kitchen floor.

Swap out your hardware

Swapping out knobs and drawer pulls can give your kitchen a new look, and depending on the type of hardware you choose, it can make your kitchen more accessible to seniors or family members with mobility problems. If you live with an elderly loved one, consider getting drawer-wide pulls, or pulls with curved edges and round knobs. To mix and match hardware, consider choosing one style for upper cabinets and a different style of hardware for lower cabinets, but make sure that they have the same finish to give your kitchen a cohesive look.

Add some art

Displaying art in the kitchen can inspire creativity, so why not hang up a few framed prints on the walls or display them on open shelving? If you’re hanging up an oil or acrylic painting on canvas, make sure that it’s far away from the sink or stove. You can also create a unique piece of art by making a tile mural, or paint a mural on one of your kitchen walls to serve as a focal wall.
Your kitchen is one of the most important areas in your home, so take the time to refresh it now that you’re spending more time at home. Upgrade your kitchen with these easy fixes, and enjoy spending time in your cooking and meal prep space.
