Appliances
One way to make your kitchen unique to you is to buy appliances that you like. These appliances can all be a single color, or your kitchen could have a spectrum of color in its appliances such as having a red toaster, a blue microwave, and a white refrigerator for a red-white-blue feel. Your appliances should also be easily accessible to you. If you need a coffee maker daily, but never use a mixer, your coffee maker will be in a prominent place on your countertop and a mixer will be gone or out of sight.
Cabinets
You also want to make your cabinets feel unique to you. This could be the color, the design, even the doorknobs of the cabinets. You can repaint all the cabinets any color you choose. You can add your preferred type of doorknobs to the outside of the cabinets. You can even change the location of the cabinets to better fit your style. Redoing the cabinetry can also add value to your home. For example, some cabinet features can add up to 20 percent more value.
Decorations
Another way to express your personality and make your kitchen unique is to decorate it. Decorations could include a theme or be knick-knacks from your childhood home. For example, if you like the style of a farm kitchen, you could have a rooster wall piece, and egg-shaped salt and pepper shakers. You could also include a barn door that slides out to cover the pantry. You can add wallpaper or even just pictures on the walls. You can also add curtains unique to you. If you want to put in the extra effort, you can also repaint your entire kitchen to express your personality. If the kitchen started off as a pale green and you want to paint it a bright yellow, go ahead. Make your kitchen yours.
The kitchen is the heart of the home. It is a place where people want to come and gather, and it’s also a place where you’ll spend a lot of time. So take the effort and make your kitchen feel like it is the only kitchen in the world that is well and truly yours.
