If you’re looking for a way to create more space without breaking the bank, storage containers are your friend! Not only do they add some flair and style, but also allow you to store items in an organized manner – all at a price that won’t break the bank.
2. Add Bold Colors
Spruce up your living space with a color infusion — it’s an easy way to transform any room! Try adding some colorful decorations for an economical option, or go all out and create an accent wall using peel-n-stick or contact paper.
You’ll love the unique look that pops of colors can bring!
3. Convert Kitchen Hardware
Make your kitchen dreams come true with just a few simple switches! Upgrading the hardware can give it an entirely new look – from modern farmhouse to industrial chic. You’ll be amazed by how much of a difference some updated knobs and handles will make for your cook space.
4. Let There Be Light
Lighting is the simplest way to elevate your kitchen’s game. Give it a luxurious makeover with bright, modern LED-strips that are guaranteed to turn heads – plus they won’t break the bank either!
Whether you buy them at department stores or online on Amazon, adding some extra illumination beneath those cabinets can transform your entire cooking space into an envy-inducing sanctuary in no time flat.
5. Add Some Greenery 
Add a breath of life to your kitchen! Introducing some plants into the mix is an easy and inexpensive way to instantly spruce up any space.
