A kitchen is a room that definitely can get cluttered. However, there are many quick and easy ways to get your kitchen in perfect condition. Your Evanston kitchen can be updated with just a few tips.
One way to update your kitchen is to paint it. Whether you paint the walls, or decide to paint your white cabinets, color always adds a spark. With white cabinets many homeowners are very particular about the other items surrounding them. A light color covering the cabinets can make a difference. Using a light blue or green will make them stand out and adds a special touch to the area. When painting your kitchen use bright colors. Yellows and reds will not just make the room bigger, but it has been proven that those colors trigger hunger.
Hanging pots and pans is a great way to open up cabinet space, and a great way to decorate over a kitchen island. A simple rack can be bought at a local Evanston hardware store, but also can be made from recycled materials. Making sure that the rack is hung securely on the ceiling is also a key factor to making it look great.
Lighting is one of the most important aspects of your kitchen, and one clever and effective type is library lighting, small lamps that are hung under the cabinets and only hang 2-3 inches. With these lights cooking will be easier and will give you light for small projects you may be working on. Another great way to light your kitchen is by using multiple smaller fixtures. A nice hanging light over the sink will be accentuated if the same fixture is featured in other parts of the kitchen.
A few other ways to spruce up your kitchen is to add artwork. While homemade art is nice, buying a charcoal drawing or a vintage painting will feature different areas of your kitchen. If windows are a large part of your kitchen, a nice way to cover them is with sheer curtains because it lets the sun shine through and covers up your windows at the same time.
