Looking to update your kitchen this year? We've put together some tips and great finds to help create a new look without breaking the bank. 

Painting your cabinets can provide a fresh feel with great savings. If painting is not an option, find a local designer or cabinet dealer that may have liquidation stock for much less than a custom kitchen. Adding a simple backsplash with tile or wallpaper is also a creative way to refresh your kitchen. We've switched out cabinet pulls and knobs, added some well-priced pendant lights and styled with various accessories to round out our new look.
