Complete Kitchen Makeover Must Haves

When deciding to move forward with a kitchen makeover, there are many areas that need to be carefully considered. A kitchen makeover can greatly improve the look and value of your home when done correctly. There are many design elements that you will find add both beauty and function to your kitchen. 

Integrated Storage Options

Perhaps this is the most functional of all the elements of a home makeover. Adding storage elements that blend in with the design space creates a seamless and finished look in your kitchen. Some areas you can integrate storage into your home’s kitchen space include:

• Paper Towel Storage that is built right into your cabinets. While every kitchen requires paper towels for clean up, it’s not always visually pleasing to see them mounted on the wall. Adding this feature allows them to be within quick reach, but out of site. 
• Trash Cans slots that are built into a pull out cabinet. No one wants to look at unsightly garbage in a beautiful kitchen. So, while necessary to have a space for your garbage, hiding them in a pull out cabinet is a wonderful solution. 
• Hidden USB Chargers and Outlets added into a kitchen drawer provides the functionality needed for busy families with the mess of tangled cords left visible on a countertop. 

Open Shelving For Both Function And Beauty

While this feature can be a little on the controversial side, we love the idea! Adding open shelving to your kitchen offers an opportunity to use the space in the most functional way while also offering a way to display your design style. This option also works to help break up what would otherwise just be a wall of cabinets. Choosing the right tone of wood or paint for your open shelving can help warm up your space. This is also a great space to put some of your heirloom china on display or your most loved serving pieces. Open shelving adds both function and beauty to your kitchen. 

Cabinetry That Offers Plenty Of Storage Options

While the appeal of integrated storage within your cabinetry is understandable. It is important to also have plenty of storage for the rest of your kitchen as well. Plenty of drawers, of varying sizes and depths are key to making the most of your new kitchen space. Below you will find some of the most useful tips when deciding on cabinets. 

• Drawers instead of doors on your cabinets. Adding drawers in as many places as possible allows your kitchen to be more functional. Deep drawers for pot and pan storage is a great way to maximize space. 
• Roll out drawers for the storage of baggies, foil, etc. 
• Pull out drawers in your pantry space for easy access to all the items.
