Kitchen is a place to gather with family and friends,
where you can cook and bake. It also serves as an important room for cleaning
up after cooking and baking. You don't want your countertops to look like
they've been worn out by years' worth of dirty pots. In this article we'll show
you how to remodel farmhouse kitchens with a modern new look, starting
with a simple refresh of the cabinets. The exposed beams, neutral paint and
French doors make for an inviting space that's great for entertaining or just
cooking up some delicious meals. But before we get started on our project,
let's discuss some important details:
- Reface Kitchen Cabinets
- Paint Kitchen Cabinets
- Replace Kitchen Cabinet Door

- Replace Old Hardware
- Magnetic Lock and Key System
- Add Hanging Baskets for Storage
Reface Kitchen Cabinets
If you want to give your kitchen a more modern look and
feel, then consider refacing the kitchen cabinets. Laminate is a good option for
kitchens with an older look because it can help keep the space looking classic
without being too old-fashioned. The laminate is durable, easy to clean and
comes in many colors and styles that will suit any decorating scheme. You can
also choose between hardwood varieties or laminate with faux woodgrain patterns
on top of the material itself both options provide excellent value for money.
Paint Kitchen Cabinets
Paint the cabinets with a roller. Use a brush if you
prefer, but for most people, it's easier and just as effective to use an
all-purpose paint roller. To get right into the corners and crevices of your
kitchen cabinets, try using an extension pole or angled head on your paint
roller so that you can reach even harder-to-reach places without having to bend
down or lean over too much. This will make sure that no part of your project
goes unnoticed.
Replace Kitchen Cabinet Door
To replace your kitchen cabinet doors, you can choose
from three different types of glass: frosted, clear and stained. If you want to
add an extra element to your room's décor, consider replacing them with mirror
or decorative glass instead of plain old transparent ones.
To replace any damaged or broken parts of your cabinet
doors with new ones will require professional installation services such as
those offered by a contractor or handyman who has experience working with these
kinds of projects.
Change Cabinet Doors to Drawers
- Remove all cabinet doors. The old kitchen cabinets
will be removed, and a new set of drawers installed in their place.
- Build a drawer box: If you don't have a drawer box
already built, you can design one yourself. The best way to do this is by
taking measurements of your existing drawers, then drawing them on graph
paper (or actual paper). Once you have drawn out the shapes of your
drawers, add additional dimensions and material thicknesses until they fit
snugly together so that there's no gap between them when closed.
Replace Old Hardware
When you're ready to remodel your farmhouse kitchen, the
first step is replacing the old hardware with new. This will give your cabinets
a fresh look and feel, as well as improve their functionality.
The best way to go about this is by using magnetic lock
and key systems on doors and drawers. These are easy-to-install options that
allow you to change out locks without having to drill holes in other areas of
the wall or ceiling (like with traditional deadbolts). They also prevent
accidental opening while keeping valuables secure inside cabinets.
Another great option for replacing old hardware is adding
hanging baskets for storage. These can be used as shelves or cubbies so that
everything has its own place within reach of whoever needs it most often.
Magnetic Lock and Key System
The magnetic lock system is easy to use and more secure
than traditional locks. Magnetic locks are also more durable than traditional
locks, which means you can use them for years without needing replacement parts
or repairs. Finally, magnetic locks are much cheaper than traditional ones meaning
that you won’t have to spend as much money on your kitchen remodel.
Add Hanging Baskets for Storage
Hanging baskets are a great way to store kitchen
utensils, plates and other items. You can hang them above the sink, on the wall
or ceiling, on the door or countertop anywhere you need extra storage space.
- Hang baskets by their handles over a sink: This is
an easy way to keep things like dishwashers clean because they won't get
wet from splashing water onto them.
- Hang baskets on a wall. If you have limited space in
your kitchen (and who doesn't?). This option could work well for you. Just
make sure that there's enough clearance between cabinets so that nothing
gets in between when opening drawers or doors while they're closed (or
vice versa).
Conclusion
In this article, we’ve covered a few ways to make your
farmhouse kitchen into a more modern space. We discussed how to change the hardware
of your cabinets and doors, as well as how to add hanging baskets for storage.
We also provided some ideas for painting them white or black based on what you
already have installed in your home. However, if you want something completely
different then consider replacing all of them with new wood species.
