“KITCHEN FACELIFTS”

So, your kitchen needs a faceli and your

budget isn’t looking so good! You can do

several small changes to your kitchen

and give it a fresh new look with just a

little bit of work and money.

Let’s start with the cabinets. Should we

replace, reface or paint? If you are at all

handy, I suggest you paint. A few gallons

of a good paint, new hinges, handles and

a weekend of your time is all it take to

give your cabinet a new look. Here are

the steps needed to paint cabinet:

· Clean cabinets with STP or similar

product.

· You will need to lightly sand the cabi‐

nets or use a liquid sand paper. is will

rough up the surface to accept the paint.

· Let dry completely and apply a layer of

primer. Again, ask your paint store to

help you with the primer that you should

use.

· Talk to your paint store about a good

paint to use for painted cabinets is going

to cost you around 60.00 and up. De‐

pending on the size of the kitchen you

will need 1 to 2 gallons of paint.

· en apply 2 coats of paint with a roller.

· If you like to distressed cabinets aer

they are completely dry, sand lightly on

edges and corners.

· At this point if you like you can glaze

the cabinets with a contrasting color.

· Add some new hinges and hardware to

the cabinets and you have a fresh new

look.

Counter tops is your next big decision.

Although granite has come down on

pricing, it can still cost. You can buy

granite tile squares instead. Although it

is has seams it still have a great granite

feel. For short term $x, you can paint

your counters. Again, ask your paint

store expert and he will help you with

product. You can also wrap your coun‐

ters with sheets of stainless steel or cop‐

per. is might be a bit tricky so research

the process well.

Finish the look with a back splash and a

new faucet. You can buy tile at your local

home stores for little money. You can

google and do the project yourself. You

will need glue, grout and probably a few

tools. You can buy a nice faucet for few

hundred dollars and that is the $nishing

touch!

e only thing le is to paint your walls.

You might also want to consider painting

the wood trim if you have dated blonde

oak wood.

Put your kitchen back together with a

few new accessories and maybe some

window treatments. With a budget you

can have a great new kitchen! Take the

time to do your homework, ask ques‐

tions and research before you start your

project.

Good Luck and let us know how you
