5 WAYS TO UPDATE YOUR KITCHEN ON A BUDGET
For our family, and for many people, the kitchen is a real focal point in their home. With open plan living becoming increasingly popular, we all spend a lot of time in the kitchen and for that reason we should make our kitchen look exactly how we want it to. Obviously new kitchens can get expensive, and we can’t all afford the kitchen of our dreams (I know we are still working on that!), but with a few simple changes we can update our kitchen without blowing the bank!

1. Give your kitchen a more decadent feeling by choosing just one area to splurge. By using lower priced kitchen units and inexpensive tiles, you can indulge elsewhere such as on marble countertops or top end fixtures and fittings.
2. Add a little colour to your kitchen. It’s quite common to play it safe a neutral kitchen but adding a splash of colour can make a huge difference to the overall feel of the room. Using coloured acrylic splash backs is a great way to bring a little life to your kitchen or even painting a feature wall.

3. 3. Update your kitchen floor to revive a tired kitchen. It’s a relatively low cost way to make a high impact on the overall look of your kitchen, and adding a wooden floor or a high gloss tile will always bring out the wow factor.
4. Look for discounted kitchen companies where you can buy some of the best and cheapest kitchens available. Kitchen Warehouse have some great deals and you can get far more for your money than you may originally have thought.

5. Changing your cabinet doors and handles is a great trick if you are on a lower budget. If your actual units are still in good condition, and you don’t need to change the lay out of your kitchen, you can completely transform the look with new doors and handles. If your budget is very low you can even paint existing doors and simply buy new handles!
Sometimes just cleaning an existing kitchen makes a huge different too. A professional clean from Carbona cleaner for ovens is a great place to start!
