(NC)—Kitchens are the social hub of the household and one of the most important contributors to your home's resale value. Renovations need not be costly nor time consuming. Whatever your style, consider the following tips from The Home Depot, for easy weekend D-I-Y projects that make a big impact.
Hardly small – Simple changes to traditional hardware can noticeably change the look of your entire kitchen. By switching out your cabinet handles, knobs and pulls, you can transform your kitchen into a room that reflects your personal style.
Bright idea – Changing the lighting in your kitchen can dramatically shift its look and draw focus to different areas. Pendant lighting will soften the feel of the room, while a chandelier adds warmth.
In sink – Upgrading the sink and faucet is an easy way to create a stylish and functional space for both cooking and cleaning. You can find faucets in more heights, materials and finishes than ever before. Consider the latest trends including wall-mounted and high-arc faucets with bigger spouts.
Tile it up – A stylish kitchen backsplash is a relatively inexpensive way to modernize the kitchen and protect your walls. It can be an extension of your countertop style, coordinated to match the flooring or something completely unique.
Count on it – Next to your floors, the kitchen countertop is the most used surface in your home. As a focal point in your kitchen, it's important to be sure your countertop complements your cabinetry and flooring, but is tough enough to withstand the daily activities of a busy home.
