Spice up your kitchen

The kitchen is probably the most popular room in your house. It's the launching pad of your day, the first stop after'school, the family cafe, and the scene of secret midnight snacks.

So why not make your kitchen as inviting as possible? It's easier than you think. Just by replacing the front of your existing cabinets, you can create a whole new look almost overnight. Plus, visit the HomeWorks websites now to get free estimates and internet specials.

Find the right style for your kitchen. If you use a home improvement expert to reface your cabinets, they will walk you through the hundreds of styles available and help you decide the best options for your family and budget. Styles may include:

Traditional-This style says "come sit down and stay a while." It features warm woods with raised panel details and brass fixtures. It creates an old fashioned, very warm and comfortable feeling.

European-These cabinets have hidden hinges and create a very clean, spare look. They fit any decor and are a very good option if you're looking for a subtle style that fades into the background.

Contemporary-This look is a combination of Shaker and Scandinavian styles, characterized by bleached or light natural woods, glass, and stainless steel. Colors range from subdued to bright and there is minimal hardware if any.

Country Kitchen-This style features open grain, solid oak cabinetry and ceramic or wood hardware. The trendy new "distressed" look technically fits in this category.
