Spring Refresh Starts with the Cabinets
When it comes to seasonal home updates, the kitchen and bathroom often get the spotlight. But you don’t need a full remodel to make your space feel fresh. With a few focused cabinet upgrades, you can improve both the look and function of your space without major construction or cost.
1. Swap Out Hardware
Replacing outdated cabinet knobs and pulls is one of the fastest ways to give your cabinets a new look. Choose finishes that align with the overall tone of your space—like brushed brass for warmth or matte black for contrast. Don’t be afraid to mix metals or go bold with oversized pulls if you're looking for something more contemporary.
Recommended Hardware Trends:
- Slim bar pulls in mixed metals
- Knurled knobs for texture
- Matte finishes in champagne, bronze, or black
2. Add Interior or Under-Cabinet Lighting
Interior cabinet lighting not only elevates the overall appearance of your kitchen or bath—it also increases visibility. Under-cabinet LED strips can provide functional task lighting, while interior cabinet lighting highlights dishware or display pieces in glass-front cabinets.
Where to Use Lighting:
- Under upper cabinets for countertop lighting
- Inside cabinets with glass doors
- In drawers for better visibility
3. Refinish or Repaint
A fresh coat of paint or stain can completely shift the mood of a space. If your cabinets are in good structural condition, refinishing can be a cost-effective way to upgrade. For a more custom look, consider color blocking upper and lower cabinets or using a specialty finish.
Popular Spring Cabinet Colors:
- Soft white
- Dusty blue
- Warm taupe or mushroom tones
4. Add Custom Features
Spring is a great time to invest in cabinet accessories that make daily use easier. Think pull-out trash bins, dividers for cooking utensils, or tiered spice shelves. These smart upgrades take your space from basic to customized.
