A fresh coat of paint always has a way of totally transforming a place into something more beautiful. The first step of remodeling your kitchen is by painting it. There are many places to start from; the kitchen cabinets, kitchen countertops, and finally the walls. You can undertake this part by yourself, set one of the weekends, buy a couple of paint gallons and paintbrushes and you are good to go.
This is a good opportunity for family bonding too. Choose color themes that you desire but ensure that they will blend in with the rest of the kitchen decor. Choose preferably warm colors to set the relaxing ambiance you desire.

A kitchen island is arguably the best kitchen fixture. Their cool design enhances the aesthetics of your kitchen.

Apart from just sitting there and being beautiful, a kitchen island could also work as both a kitchen countertop and a storage space. This will increase the open space in your kitchen, you would not have to stack up more cabinets against the world. The airy and open space will make your kitchen look more attractive.

The kitchen like any other part of your home deserves to be decorated. Introduce flowers and house plants as they always bring a calm atmosphere. The flowers or plants should be grown ornately designed vases to complement the beautiful look. There are also cheaper DIY vases or pots that could house the flowers and plants.
Decorate the jars and other things that you use to store spices and other stuff that you need around the kitchen. Use kitchen utensils also, buy beautiful sets of china and creatively designed plates. Display these in open shelved cabinets for all and sundry to see, place a welcoming rug at the kitchen door to complete the perfect look.

There are some people who prefer to have their kitchen space all to themselves. They do not want people all up in their business when they are trying to follow a cookbook and coming up with a delicious meal. This should not be the case, open up your kitchen, involve your children in the meal preparation. Assign them roles like chopping onions or kneading the dough.
Introduce comfortable seats at the kitchen countertop or island where the whole family can enjoy meals together. Light up the kitchen better by using skylights, overhead island lights, led lights, and even natural light. Turn your kitchen into one of the favorite hangouts of your home.
