This is more of a management thing.

You want to set aside an afternoon to sort all the things you use on a daily basis. Make sure they are easily accessible and organize them in a way that makes sense for you.

Another simple way to get a ‘new look’ for your kitchen is to clean off all the clutter on the counters! Yes, something simple like that can make it seem fresh and new. Then adding something unique like a small chalkboard leaned up against the wall or an artificial plant, like succulents which are all the rage can make the space seem very unique. 

Installing a magnet bar on the wall (out of the reach of little ones!) for displaying cutting knives can also be perfect for better organization.

Rugs in Kitchen Area

A really simple quick and easy update is to consider rugs in the kitchen area. Now, keep in mind these have to be firmly secured and not in areas where there’s lots of cooking being done because of spills, splatters and other things. 

But, a small rug, with a rug mat under it, or a runner could be just what you need to add some pop!

Update a Kitchen

Sometimes it’s just a matter of decluttering that can update a kitchen. You’ll be surprised by how many things you’ve accumulated. Stuff you can discard. Even more surprising will be the fact that how few things we use on a daily basis.

Make a pile for donation! As you’re sorting this out items, use that rule of thumb for getting rid of ‘stuff’. If you haven’t used in the past 6-9 months, it’s time to give it a new home. Donate or sell on one of the marketplace platforms on social media!

Kitchen Sink Remodel

Time for a New Tap or Faucet

We use taps and faucets on a regular basis and that’s the last thing we might think about changing. But, boy, the WOW can be seen immediately.

Change it around and install a stainless-steel tap or maybe one with ceramic handles if you want to go for a country look. Consider different finishes of faucets, bronze, rubbed, and more.

Stainless steel faucets work great not only because they sparkle, but because they’re super functional. And, if you want to really grab attention, go for black stainless. As soon as you enter the kitchen, it’s packs a punch of drama.

The black stainless-steel sink is also like a statement that tells people this kitchen is different than the ones they’re used to.
