Everyone dreams of having an updated modern-looking kitchen. But that doesn’t mean you have to gut your kitchen, fill it with brand new appliances, and hire a set of professionals to do the work.
You can completely make over your kitchen and give it a brand new look without breaking the bank.
Here’s what the Green Room kitchen looked like at The Rachel Ray Show before it was made over.
The room was completely transformed after they did the following:
Paint Your Laminate Cabins
You can have beautiful new cabinets in your home, while still enjoying the ability to clean them easily. All you have to do is sand down your laminate cabinets and prime them.
Then, paint them a brand new color. Just make sure that you’re using a paint with a satin or semi-gloss finish.
Makeover Your Fixtures
Make your fixtures look bold, sleek and expensive by spray painting them with a paint that is metallic safe, made to use indoors and outdoors, and is also a primer. Make sure to protect areas that you don’t want to be covered in spray paint.
Shelf Makeover
Giving yourself brand new shelves couldn’t be any easier. Just cover them with some peel and stick contact paper. This protects your original shelving and covers old beat up shelving. You can get contact paper in all sorts of designs, colors, and finishes.
