Make Your Kitchen Feel Larger
Where, in your home, do you spend the most time? If your family is like mine, it’s most likely in the kitchen. When everyone gathers in the kitchen, not matter how large your kitchen might be, it never feels big enough.
Finally, after completely redesigning the floor plan, several years ago I was able to remodel my kitchen. The first renovation we did was to knock down a wall (we had the best time doing this). We then installed a garden window over the sink, lowering the bottom of the window to be even with the countertop. Finally, we added an island with an overhang, with room for three or four stools, and a food-prep peninsula at table height, which has an overhang with room for three or four stools.
So do you want your kitchen to feel and look larger? Following are several ideas to help make that a reality. You don’t have to implement all of them, but even following one of these suggestions will make a big difference in your kitchen.
