Today – 5 simple ways to spruce up your kitchen
My kitchen has been cream and white for a long time.
I work day in day out in a tiny corner of it and it has been starting to look a bit jaded recently. Certainly in need of a spruce up. But I am a bit short on both time and money so I need simple and speedy ways to refresh it
Here’s what i have been contemplating … a selection of simple ways to spruce up your kitchen
Simple ways to spruce up your kitchen
Declutter
Before anything can look refreshed I think you really have to just get rid of the old the broken and unloved or it just isn’t goign to work.
Deep clean
I would suggest roping the whole family into this after all they make the mess too. A deep clean is a great way to start a refresh and so much easier to do when you have decluttered
Paint
Re-painting your walls in the same colour amounts to a quick job but it really does make such a difference.
Inject some colour
I like kitchens to be calm places and look really clean and serene. I am however in need of a bit colour around me and the pale blues that abound this season in homewares are just perfect. Just a few touches here and then but I think it will make a huge difference,
Replace old appliances
My coffee maker gave up the ghost a while ago and my toaster doesn’t work very well at all frequently only half cooking half of a slice of bread. Not tasty or particularly toasty.
Over at the toasters section at House of Fraser I have found a beautiful and pale blue Delonghi vintage toaster It would make such a lovely addition to the kitchen and it would totally smarten it up!
