Five Myths About Revamping Your Kitchen

People tend to let the rooms in their homes go without a revamp for many years. This is most likely due to misconceptions about what goes into revamping your home. The kitchen especially can be a daunting task, but it’s probably cheaper and less work than you think. Here are five myths about kitchen revamps and why they are false:

Myth #1: Revamping your Kitchen is Always Expensive

 A full kitchen remodel would cost thousands of dollars, but you can revamp your kitchen for a fraction of the cost to no cost at all. Small changes can have a significant impact on the overall look and feel of your kitchen.

If you are looking to complete a revamp on a small scale, new products might not be necessary. Depending on your space reorganizing and rearranging could be all you need.  

Myth #2: Revamping Your Kitchen Requires Extensive Labor

Not at all! Adding a few new décor items and doing some reorganizing may do the trick. Here are a few quick and easy changes that can change the look at feel of your space:

• Update your kitchen curtains, mats, and linens
• Get a new centerpiece for your table
• Add or swap out your wall décor

Myth #3: You Need to Follow the Latest Trends for a Successful Revamp

A revamp does NOT need to follow the latest trends. Your kitchen revamp should focus on your unique style preferences that suit your needs and tastes. Check out some Kitchen Collections by Seventh Avenue. Remember, trends come and go so pick a style that YOU love.

Myth #4: Revamping Your Kitchen is a Time-Consuming Process

False! Revamping your kitchen can be done in a matter of a few hours – or less! If you don’t know where to start in the reorganizing process just follow these easy steps:

1. Clear Countertops: This step will minimize clutter and provide you with more workspace. Keep essential items out but put away what you can.
2. Declutter and Organize: Start by getting rid of any items you no longer use. Ensure that everything has a designated place.  
3. Consider Optimizing Workflow: Keep commonly used items such as cooking utensils and other commonly used items within reach of your main workspace.
4. Increase Storage Solutions: If you are struggling to find a space for all of your items even after completing steps 1-3, you may need to improve your storage capacity. There are discrete and stylish options available for doing so that are highlighted in the storage solutions section.  

Myth #5: Revamping Your Kitchen is Just About Aesthetics

Aesthetics may play a vital role in the need for a kitchen revamp, but functionality and usability are equally as important factors. Changes in these areas could provide a more efficient workflow. Besides décor, think about storage solutions and appliances that may fit your needs.

OK, so how to do it. There are several strategies you can employ to pull off your successful kitchen revamp.
