EASY and FREE change to BRIGHTEN UP YOUR KITCHEN

Do you want to brighten up your kitchen? Try removing the doors from one of your upper cabinets... I know the colors of the dishes I chose are a bit bright, but I am tired of winter, and want happy and bright colors in my kitchen for now.

I have ordered glass front doors, and am waiting for them to arrive, but I just couldn't wait to share how much better it looks with just having removed the doors!


Do you like the dishes? I am excited to change things out for different holidays in the future, but for now... I wanted everything bright and cheery! When I first decided to do this, I was worried about the inside being white... I thought it might look cheap. I thought about painting it, or putting fabric or wallpaper on the back, which I may do in the future. But for now, I am loving the white. And, the dishes are busy enough. I am thinking wallpaper would be more distracting, and even fight with what I have going on in there right now. I also thought about putting in glass shelves... Maybe in the future. I am happy with the white for now.


It makes me happy happy happy every time I look at it! I might put lights on each shelf for night time ambiance. What do you think?


Have a Happy & Creative Day!

    This idea is great. I love all the colors. It's kind of like 6 different pieces of art showcased. Love the thought about changing them with the holidays, too.

    Great idea! Too bad my kitchen, while spacious, was very poorly planned and I have SUPER limited cabinet space so I couldn't afford to lose one as storage. Cute though!
    Thanks for stopping by my blog! :)
