10 Easy Update Ideas for Your Kitchen

    1. Paint one wall a color. Or try a gradated color on the ceiling (going lighter towards the center).
    2. Change your pendants with larger hip pendants (or convert your recessed lights to pendants).

    1. Add a large shade over the chandelier above your eating table. Shop here.
    2. Add LED lighting above your cabinets. This will make a low ceiling seem higher.
    3. Add a rug. The new & improved “outdoor” rugs work really well in the kitchen because you can hose them off! They now look like tufted carpet!
    4. Add a bordered sisal rug and repeat the border fabric on your barstools!
    5. Recover your barstools in an updated fabric.
    6. Change your knobs (See Top Knobs Nouveau section here and here).
    7. Paint your outdated tile backsplash with epoxy paints in a random checkerboard pattern in various hues of the same color interspersed with a neutral (gray, white, beige, etc.). Here’s how!
    8. Replace your center ceiling light with monorail track. This allows for task and accent lighting on artwork, special cabinet and hood features, etc.

    Love your products! Great suggestions…I work for the airline, Delta and still suffering under a 40% paycut from Northwest Airlines prior to the merge. Any budget ideas would be welcome!
