Kitchen Upgrade Ideas
Comments (12)if you want contemporary, I'd look into refacing your doors w/slab front or even a shaker. right now they're very traditional looking. find some pictures of the kitchens you like, and we'll tell you how to get the look you want. but you may want to consider doing new cabs, or like I said, getting them refaced w/diff doors. but yes, 100%, get new countertop and that backsplash has to go! looks like floor tile design Shaker door fronts, modern hardware, and granite. White tile subway backsplash. gray quartz, pendant lights contemporary lights, white quartz, and a linear glass backsplash, modern seating. slab front, glossy white modern cabs. glass tile backsplash, and a marble look quartz. This is contemporary. i'd also check into getting a counter depth fridge. it will sit even w/your countertop. (see the pick above w/the fridge in pic 1 and 3...See MoreNeed Kitchen upgrade - Paint woodwork…New countertops
Comments (13)Beautiful cabinets! Leave them alone. Natural woods are making a return to the kitchen. It appears that your island has no plumbing to it. And, perhaps only one outlet (on the other side). You have real hardwood floors, so if you make any changes to the island it can probably be patched. I would focus on counters/backsplash. Lighting. And then….if you want to make some changes…a new, rectangular or square island. Possibly painted, if that is what you want. Make the changes there. A different color. Adding a small sink. Changing the style of cabinetry (or repurposing what you have.). Minor modifications to your kitchen will make a huge change....See Morekitchen upgrade help!

Comments (38)Painting cabinets is not really difficult. Anyone who has some experience spraying finishes, whether homes, cars, or furniture can likely spray full overlay cabinets successfully, it really just isn’t that hard. In fact, if you were to apply at an autobody shop with cabinet spraying experience they are likely going to consider that as little to no experience as would a house painter who sprays. It is just so much easier to spray small doors that you can easily manipulate than stationary or large items. Certainly you might question the knowledge of coatings that a general painting contractor has, but you might also question the knowledge of coatings that most small cabinetmakers have. This is especially true when you start refinishing cabinets, as painting fresh wood is so different than removing and reapplying coatings....See MoreUser
