The transformation begins with a fresh coat of light-colored paint on the walls and cabinets, instantly brightening up the space.
Rather than replacing cabinets, a budget-friendly approach involves refinishing or repainting them.
Dark and heavy upper cabinets are replaced or supplemented with open shelving.
To stay within budget, the countertops are updated with a cost-effective material, such as laminate or butcher block.
Dated light fixtures are replaced with energy-efficient and stylish pendant lights or recessed lighting.
If the flooring was dark and outdated, it is replaced with a budget-friendly yet durable option.
The finishing touches include adding personalized decor and accents, such as plants, colorful kitchen accessories, and artwork.
