Kitchen Tune-Up Offers Quick and Inexpensive Solutions
|
As the weather gets nippy, homeowners often turn their attention to the interior of their homes, according to Heidi Morrissey of Kitchen Tune-Up, and the kitchen is often high on the list of home improvement projects. October 6, 2004, Aberdeen, SD - "The kitchen is frequently the project homeowners want to start on first, but they end up putting it last on the list because they think it will be too expensive," said Morrissey. "The truth is that there's a lot homeowners can do to make their kitchens more functional, better organized and more attractive that won't break the bank." Morrissey says that the following tips can make a big difference: 1. Get your hands on what you need fast with roll-out trays. When you outfit specific areas of your kitchen with roll-out trays, you can maximize your space and have everything you need for a task. For example, pots, pans and lids in a roll-out tray are organized and at your fingertips. 2. Maximize space with half-moon shelves. If space is limited and you can't fit a Lazy Susan into a corner, you can still store canned goods - or anything - and utilize that empty space with a pullout half-moon shelf. 3. Avoid exposing cabinets to sunlight. Sunlight dries out wood, breaking down the finish and exposing raw wood to heat and humidity. Draw the drapes to keep direct sunlight off your cabinets, and start a maintenance program when your cabinets are two or three years old. Like an oil change for your car, it's quick, inexpensive and important to the life of your cabinets. The tune-up removes contaminants from the wood, conceals nicks, cuts and scratches and adds a protective oil that regenerates wood fibers and prevents further damage without sanding, stripping or varnish. 4. Use a non-silicone wood cleaner. Many branded wood products contain silicone, which is hard to remove and negatively impacts the finish. Instead, clean with a gentle white soap and water, then dry wood well after cleaning with a lint-free rag. 5. Don't forget to turn on the ventilating fan when cooking. This reduces deposits on all kitchen surfaces. 6. Remember the trivet/coaster when placing pans or glasses on furniture. These go a long way to preventing scorches or watermarks. 7. Take care of nicks, gouges and scratches immediately. Never leave bare wood exposed.
