For many of us, self quarantine has inspired creative cooking and spending more time in the kitchen. One way to make cooking more enjoyable is by building your dream kitchen slowly with pieces you love. Scroll down for our tips to upgrade your kitchen inspired by some beautiful and unique spaces we love.
Minimal and functional
Upgrade your basic items that are often overlooked, like kitchen towel holders and bottle grinders so that they spark joy every time you use them. It is easy to start with smaller and less expensive things to upgrade and then slowly move your way up to things that can be more expensive. However, it further goes to show how much attention you pay to the little details of your kitchen.
