Ideas for a simple kitchen makeover

A kitchen makeover needn't be hard nor expensive. A few simple products can keep your kitchen feeling fresh and let you put your personal stamp on it.

Every kitchen deserves a little art

Don’t underestimate the effect that wall decoration can have, even in a small space. It can enhance your chosen look, add atmosphere, and even create a focal point that grabs your attention. Large or small, a single bold piece or a cluster, you can go whichever way you fancy.

A new handle on things

Handles are often an afterthought when it comes to planning a simple kitchen makeover, but they can really set the look. Choose the style that suits you and swap out your handles to give your kitchen an easy makeover.

Warm things up a bit

Kitchen textiles like tea towels and oven gloves add softness and warmth and can enhance your chosen look. Patterned or plain, matched or mixed, you decide for your kitchen makeover.

Not just for storage

Rails are a great way to get more out of your kitchen. They put unused wall space to work and offer accessible storage that keeps your countertops clutter-free. And not only are practical, but they can also be an extra design element that enhances your chosen look.

Because mess is rarely in fashion

Things can get pretty messy in the kitchen, particularly if you get carried away when cooking. And all it takes is one trickle of tomato juice, a bit of beetroot, or a blob of balsamic to ruin your favorite top or bottom. But if you wear an apron, you can concentrate on getting your recipe spot on, rather than worrying about getting spots on your kit.
