Custom kitchen cabinets offer extra space to store items and add the overall decor to your cooking space. You can easily decorate the space by placing vintage nicknacks on top of your cabinets. Beautifying your cabinets not only improves the look of your cooking surface, but it also offers storage space for items that do not have their own space in cabinets and cupboards.
Antique appliances
Use colorful and stylish antique and vintage appliances to decorate your storage spaces. An old electric hand mixer can be an ideal decoration as it does not require much effort to set up and show off. Vintage items can help accentuate the entire room. In addition, antique colonnades with beautiful patterns can become striking decorations. Create a stunning after-dark effect by using ambient rope lighting located behind the door.
Season selection
Your interior in the kitchen cabinet should remain the same regardless of the season or year. Consider having a specific decor for each season, such as wooden eggs or fresh flowers in a vase for spring. Autumn decorations can include a framed photo of colorful leaves sitting on an easel and real or plastic gourds and pumpkins. Allocate a space for your children to display their artwork in addition to the refrigerator door. Although you can let the children decide where they can place their artwork, do not let them climb ladders to place the objects. For safety, let them guide you from their ground position on where to place their artwork.
Colorful commercialism
Decorate your own kitchen cabinets with advertisements found on fruit boxes and spice molds. This will help you create a vibrant food-themed cabinet attraction. Choose advertising for lunch boxes with bright and colorful pictures of fruits such as oranges, grapes and peaches. If you decide to use the entire box on the screen, arrange the box in such a way that the label is visible from the ground level. Use open spaces between and inside the drawers to house houseplants, faux ivy and sets of vintage salt and gingerbread cookies.
Show off your interests
You can use the space above your custom kitchen cabinets as a built-in display for various items you collect, including antique milk bottles and vintage lunch boxes. If you plan to display clear, screen-printed glassware such as milk bottles on top of your cabinets, consider putting white paper in the bottles to make the graphics more visible. Also show your lunch boxes so that they match your color scheme for the room. Beautiful drink bottles and chewing gum machines can be used as extra furnishings. Other items you can use to add atmosphere to your kitchenette shelves include small blackboards with greetings or drawings chalked on them, faux fruits and wire baskets.
Custom kitchen cabinets give homeowners the extra storage they need. You can use different decorations to enhance the look of your home and the space above the cabinets.
