Budget friendly kitchen reno ideas

Kitchen renovations can cost a fortune. Paint, flooring and updating appliances makes staying on budget a huge challenge – but it doesn’t have to be. New technologies and techniques are making it easier than ever to make your kitchen look expensive without being expensive. It also makes it easier to add charm without adding cost. 
Add a barn door An easy and popular way to keep your kitchen separate and give it character is to add a barn door. The most important consideration is to have durable and sturdy sliding door hardware that suits your style and is the appropriate fit. 
Painting or wallpapering appliances While this may seem like a weird way to update your kitchen, new paint allows you to get a stainless steel look without the stainless steel price (and painting can be enjoyable sometimes, or at least tolerable). You can also use basic wall paint and give your appliances a completely different look. Wallpaper can give your appliances a new look not be possible with painting. 
Peel and stick back splash Putting in new tile can be a hassle and cost more that the value it adds. Peel and stick back splashes can be trimmed to the size you need and easily placed where you want it. They are durable and can come in a flat variety to simply add color or in a tile design to mimic the more expensive real tile. The great thing about this option is that there is no grout to end up stained when food splatters the wall. Make a big impact without adding to your budget. 
New floors One of the easiest ways to update a kitchen is to change up the flooring. Many people would choose to replace vinyl floors with tile or hardwood. If your budget does not allow for that, you can use the option of painting your linoleum. This nontraditional method is something that can be accomplished with porch and floor paint. It is durable and can help you to customize your space. Choose from a variety of colors and use stencils to create a unique design. 
Change your cabinets does not necessarily mean buying and installing new cabinets. Painting or distressing can also add a great look to them. Changing the hardware on them can also give them a new lease on life. New handles and drawer pulls can change your kitchen’s style with very little effort. 
No matter what your budget for your kitchen, you can make it look like you spent a lot more. Simple customizations from paint, hardware and creative solutions can take your kitchen from old and outdated to charming and new. Whatever your design entails, there is a way to get the look you want without breaking the bank. Thinking outside the box and giving your space your own unique touches will help you to have the kitchen of your dreams without breaking the bank.
