If you have kitchen cabinets in great condition, but would like to change your kitchen environment to better reflect your character, there are many ways to alter the appearance of your kitchen cabinets.
First of all, you may just want to change the color of your cabinets and this can be done by painting them a light color, maybe off-white, and then use a stencil to add a design of your choice. There are so many templates to choose from that you are sure to find the exact one you are looking for.
Perhaps you have solid doors on your cabinets and this will make your kitchen look darker than you would like. If this is the case, then you may want to consider reinstalling glass doors or glass inserts on existing doors. This will add light to your kitchen as the glass will reflect natural light and make it a lighter and airier place to work. You may want to have frosted glass inserts, which are popular right now. If you already have glass doors, but would like to have frosted ones, you can purchase a frosted glass spray that works like a paint spray and change the plain glass to frosted.
This is an inexpensive way to personalize your cabinets. There are also stained glass inserts for kitchen cabinet doors and these are an eye-catching way to revitalize your cabinets and are also a talking point should you need them. You can buy these ready-made or have an artist make glass inserts for your designs. They could be placed in every closet or just one or two, depending on how you feel or how much money you have to spend.
If you don’t have a lot of money to spend but really feel like you need to personalize your custom contemporary kitchen cabinets, you may want to go for a more unusual way to do it. You can add birch branches to your cabinet doors and since they are easy to find, it only takes a little effort on your part to cut them into the proper lengths and glue them together with wood glue. You can sand and varnish the branches before attaching them to doors or leaving them in their natural state. How much cheaper could it be to update your contemporary kitchen cabinets? If you don’t want to wander around looking for birch branches, there is grass wallpaper, which can be cut into rectangles and placed in the middle of kitchen cabinet doors, and this creates a green feel in your kitchen.
You may just want to change the door handles and you can have fun browsing antique stores or markets to find antique handles that are just what you are looking for. The simple act of changing a small detail in your kitchen cabinet can make a difference.
Customizing your contemporary kitchen cabinets doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Think outside the box and see what amazing ideas you come up with. You know the end result will be that you enjoy your contemporary kitchen cabinets.
