When it comes to giving new life to any part of the house, your mind gets flooded with so many ideas that you don’t know where to start. That is until you think about how much you want to spend. Most people would have to agree that how nice they want their homes to look largely depends on their budget.

Your kitchen, for instance, is one of the most important (if not the most) part of the house. After all, it is the centre of your family’s day-to-day lives. From drinking your coffee as soon as you wake up in the morning to preparing meals and eating in the kitchen —  everything just revolves around it.

As such, it’s also one place that often looks the most ‘tired’ out of everything else. After some time, you’d like to give it a new look or perhaps, make it more functional. And if you decide to sell your home, a clean and nice-looking kitchen is sure to score you some points during a house survey.

That said, here are four ways that you can transform your kitchen without breaking the bank.

Cheap Kitchen floor Ideas

Compared to wood or laminate, tile flooring is better as it offers water-resistance, cool comfort, and great aesthetics. Not only that, but it’s also cheaper compared to other flooring options. However, a newly-installed tile flooring won’t look brand new forever, especially the grout.

If this is the case, you might want to consider changing the tiles not just on your kitchen floor but also the ones on the walls. The good news is that there are many different tiling ideas that you can get inspiration from for your kitchen. You don’t even have to spend much when shopping for tiles.

Best of all, you don’t necessarily have to go through the hassle of ripping out the original tiles since you can just put the new tiles on top of the old ones. Going this route is an excellent option since it will save you a lot of time and money too. However, this will slightly raise the floor level and is not advisable if you suspect the floor panels underneath to be loose, rotten, or has mould.

How Do I Make My kitchen energy-efficient

If you have a garden and you are into composting, you’re on the right path. It’s the perfect way to take care of kitchen scraps, lessen waste, and reduce your kitchen’s carbon footprint. But, you can actually take things to the next level by making your kitchen more energy-efficient.

There are a few ways that you can go about this, and one of them is by using lightings made of LED (light-emitting diode) or CFL (compact fluorescent lamp). Simple practices will also go a long way and will make your kitchen truly energy-efficient. For example:

How Do I Organise My kitchen Easily

The kitchen is one area of the house that can be really chaotic especially during the holidays and other special occasions. However, decluttering and maximising the available space that you have in the kitchen is actually an excellent way to transform it. And the bonus? It’s free!

Go over your kitchen and clear the counter of anything that you don’t or barely use. Remember those ‘awesome’ kitchen appliances you bought because you saw them on TV that you only used once or twice? Put them inside cabinets or the utility room if you don’t want to dispose of them.

Plan meals so you avoid overstocking on food. You don’t want your cupboards to appear like they’re going to explode anytime soon because of dried fruits, nuts, or whatever. Instead, keep them in plastic bottles with lids so they stay fresh. Needless to stay, buy only what you need when you are in the groceries even if it means frequent visits.

Do these things, and you’ll be amazed at how clean and organised your kitchen can be.
