Tired of Your Bland Kitchen? Style it Up.

Ah, the kitchen is the heart of every home because the most delicious food is cooked there, which doesn’t go to the stomach but to the heart (not literally; otherwise, you would have a heart attack). But if the heart of your house is a boring place where you don't even enjoy cooking food, then what is the use of such a heart? If your kitchen is so boring that you just want to cook and run away from there, it's time to revamp it and style it into a wonderful kitchen. But how can you style it?

Styling up Your Kitchen

Cabinets:

First things first: let's talk cabinets. Cabinets are one of the most important things in your kitchen because, without them, all your utensils and cookware will be scattered on the tops and floor. Consider replacing boring cabinets with sleek, modern designs or refreshing existing cabinets with a fresh coat of paint and design. Don't be afraid to mix and match different finishes and materials for a customized look that reflects your taste and shows everyone that you have top-tier taste in style.

Countertops:

Well, up next are countertops. The right countertop can add both style and functionality to your kitchen space. Think granite, marble, limestone or even quartz countertops, which will prove timeless choices in the long run. If you're on a budget, consider high-quality laminate or butcher block countertops for a more affordable yet equally stylish option. Countertops are responsible for instantly up-in your kitchen's look and feel.

Utensils and Cookware:

Buy some amazingly classy and adorable utensils and cookware. You must have seen that nowadays there are such pots and pans available in the market that we just want to display them in our kitchen without cooking in them. But, if you are renovating your kitchen, you should also change your utensils and cookware –but make sure to buy the prettiest ones. Display your favorite utensils in stylish containers or hanging them on hooks for easy access and to make it look like professional kitchen.

Lighting:

Lighting can truly make or break a kitchen design. Brighten your kitchen with some stylish lights like Luxe wall lamps, chandeliers or pendant lights to make it look inviting. Install pendant lights above the island or sink area to improve productivity and add glamour, and consider under-cabinet lighting to illuminate countertops and create an exciting working condition.

Decor:

No kitchen makeover is complete without the finishing touches. Add charm to your space with decorative items such as colourful rugs, a mini herb garden, artwork, kitchen-related quotes, etc. If you can decorate the rest of the house with artwork, fancy lighting like space station chandelier and sculptures, why can't you do the same with your kitchen?

Storage Solutions:

Last but not least, don't forget about storage solutions. A clutter-free kitchen is the best kitchen; you don't want your kitchen to look like those dysfunctional family kitchens where everything is haphazard –juice is dripping from the table, every possible cutlery, cookware and appliance is on the counter, there is a broken egg in the sink, and the list goes on of these disasters. Your kitchen should have a little designated space (apart from the cabinets) to store things like a pantry so that you can manage your kitchen in a better way.
