The first way you can add value to your kitchen is to buy a can of Rustoleum's hammered silver or hammer metal spray paint. Remove the kitchen knobs and hardware from you cabinets. GO head and give them a thorough cleaning.
Now, let the knobs dry and spray them with a coat of the stainless steel looking spray paint or the rustic brown hammered metal spray paint. You can update and rejuvenate old kitchen hardware in minutes this way! I can of this hammered metal spray paint will cost you about $4.50 each! One can should way more than enough to coat all of your outdate kitchen hardware!
Ok, so the second way you can add value to your kitchen for less than $50 is to declutter. Seriously, I am not joking. This is free and you not every calculate how much value you will add to your kitchen simply by loosing the stuff hiding your valuable kitchen counter space. No potential buy or house guest will ever see you kitchen in a good light if all they can see is piles of crud. This simple and affordable way to update your kitchen is free and works in any kitchen in nay style.
Now, since you changed the kitchen cabinet hardware why don't you try updating your sink fixture. You can buy great looking modern sink faucets for less than $50! Be sure to turn off your water supply to the sink and read the instructions first that come with the new faucet. Kitchen hardware and sink faucets are the jeweler of your kitchen. Give people something shiny and new to look at and they will see that first!
Now, here is a great way to update your kitchen cabinets for the low cost of a bottle of wood enhancer. You can find wood enhancers in you home imporvemtn store near the wood stained. These bottles of wood enhancers are meant to clean, shine, fill in scratches, and recondition old wood. You may even find these products near the pledge and cleaning aisle in your home improvement store. Applications vary on these products, but I see them from about $8 to $19 at my local hardware store all the time. They almost always require you to clean you kitchen cabinet surfaces, then apply with a clean dry cloth. I love these products, they work very similar to wood floor products that cover scratches and add shine! Shiny new cabinets add value to your home and really make your kitchen sparkle!
