EASY UPDATES

-

When it comes to micro makeovers, think outside the box. Kitchen and bathroom updates can be costly and may require specialist work, but paint offers an affordable solution for refreshing outdated tiles, cabinets and furniture. Designed for ceramic and glass surfaces, tile paint is a budget friendly cover-up that will give a new lease of life to all sorts of items and areas that are no longer bringing any joy. Not ready to dive straight into bold shades? Dip your toe in by painting the inside of cupboards, wardrobes and drawers, so you get a vibrant flash when the doors are opened. In the kitchen, change up cabinets with a new hue – wood, laminate and even veneer can all be painted. Ensure they’re well sanded and primed first. For best results, remove doors and handles before painting.
