Not a very humble title but I’m a little stoked to have my bright and fresh country kitchen win the Silver award for CDECA’s Decorating and Design Awards.
I thought I’d share the Youtube video showcasing my cottage kitchen.
Very exciting for me! And I’d like to say a big congratulations to all the 2017 winners.
So you want to know how to easily and inexpensively to update your cabinetry. One word –
Yes, so simple and it makes a huge difference. I just changed up the pink, yes, I said, pink hardware in my cottage laundry room and it has made an absolutely huge difference.
Here’s the original hardware….I know, I know, you are jealous. They are actually very solid metal and no signs of any chips even after 20 years of use. If you’d like them let me know I’d be glad to pass them along…. I’m sure everyone will be fighting for them 🙂 Otherwise, they will be heading to the ReStore.
And the new version, courtesy of Ikea (Ekeboda handles) in a lovely stainless steel finish.
It instantly made the cupboards look modern and played down the faint pink stripe in the cabinets and countertop…yes, they match…don’t ask me…it was like that when we bought the house.
DESIGN TIP – straight, square or linear handles will give a modern edge to your cabinetry and round knobs or curved handles offer a more traditional feel. Please ensure that you purchase the same size hardware as your existing handles or you will be drilling and filling holes in your cabinetry.
Final review coming soon…well, hopefully soon.
