Kitchens are the heart of every home, but how do you keep yours lively and functional? When trying to fall in love with your kitchen again, it can be helpful to think about how your relationship with the space has changed.
Has it always been this untidy? Have you upgraded appliances, or painted recently? Whatever the circumstances, there are many ways to improve the look and feel of your kitchen and make you love it a little bit more this Valentine’s Day.
Start baking
What is a kitchen for after all? Even if it’s a quick batch of cupcakes, this is a great way to fall in love with your kitchen! It gives you the opportunity to be adventurous and try out new recipes. If you have little ones in the house, keep them busy when they come home from school with their own aprons and jobs in the kitchen, so they can join in on the fun.
Declutter & reorganise
One way to appreciate your kitchen is by getting rid of unwanted items and ensuring everything has a place in the room. Too many mugs and cups piled on top of eachother? Reduce the amount you currently have so there is enough for family and guests. Grouping things together in storage baskets or racks for utensils, spices and fresh produce will also help keep things organised too. Remember, less is more.
Upgrade lighting & hardware
Lightning is another factor to consider when it comes to helping you fall in love with your kitchen again as it can make or break a space. Ensure there’s plenty of natural sunlight during the day, while at night, why not illuminate your kitchen with overhead pendant lights, LED strips under the cabinets, table lamps and maybe the odd candle or two for a warm, cosy feel.
Add elements of nature
Incorporate some flowers into your home décor by keeping small plants indoors, or set up a window box for roses or herbs to grow. This will add colour to the space, with the added benefit of a calm, botanical atmosphere that inspires you to cook more.
Choose a new colour scheme
Finally, if you’re bored with the current colour scheme of your kitchen, or the cupboards and shelves are looking a little worse for wear, then there’s a fairly simple way to fix this – repaint it! This is one of the most cost-effective solutions to completely transform your kitchen, whether you go for a subtle sophisticated dark blue or a bright pop of yellow.
