Sand and repaint cabinets- this can typically be done for less than 50% of the cost of removing old cabinets and installing new cabinets.\u00a0We normally suggest a bright white such as Sherwin Williams\u2019\u00a0<\/span>Snowbound (SW 7004)<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/span>Dover White (SW 6485)<\/strong>\u00a0or if you prefer Benjamin Moore, look into\u00a0<\/span>Simply White (OC-117)<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

As for kitchen islands, while there is a noticeable trend to have the island be an accent with a shade of blue or other attractive color, we suggest keeping it simple for your budget and to attract as many people as possible to your color choices- of you\u2019re selling.\u00a0 They or you can always spend the money to add a personalized accent with the island.\u00a0 <\/span>However, if you decide to make the island an accent, we absolutely love Sherwin Williams\u00a0Lauren\u2019s Surprise (SW 6791)<\/strong>,\u00a0Misty (SW 6232)<\/strong>\u00a0and Benjamin Moore\u00a0Twilight (2058-10)<\/strong>.\u00a0 They\u2019re very different colors, but both compliment white cabinets nicely. Replace faucet, counter top, backsplash, appliances- these are relatively inexpensive ways to update the appearance of your kitchen, which is often the most important room in the house.<\/p>\n
