How to Make Accents to Your Kitchen

You may feel like your kitchen has already gone boring. Well, there are things that you can do such as repairing broken kitchen cabinet doors, repainting walls, and also add some accents. They all have different ways to make your kitchen look better.


You do not need to get an interior designer all the time when you make some accents to your kitchen. Most of the materials can actually come from your own kitchen, or even the garage. The following are some of the things that can enhance your kitchen’s appearance:

1. Hemp ball

You have been probably charmed by hemp balls at home decorating shops and even at fancy restaurants. However, they are a little bit expensive and may not be include in your budget since it is basically not a need. But you can actually also have your own by making some.

Making a DIY hemp ball is very easy. All you have to do is find an inflatable ball; it works better than balloons since it can get a perfect shape. Wrap the hemp wire around the ball and make sure they stick to the surface using glue.

Continue doing it until you reach your desired thickness. Make sure that you leave a circular space on top of the ball; this is where you attach the bulb or holder. Let it dry for at least 48 hours. Deflate the ball and you are good to go.

2. Framed old silverware

If there are some silverware that have been passed on to you by your parents or grandparents, which you think are not that useful anymore, you can use them as accents to your kitchen instead. This is especially good if you do not have any intention on using them, or if some items are missing making it impossible to use them.

Put them on a frame, preferably one that fits the design their design. You can put it near your preparation area, or if you have a show cabinet, next to it.

3. Vegetable gourmet basket

Another great way to put some accents to your kitchen is making a vegetable gourmet basket. You can use just any basket, but wicker could be very appealing. Use all the vegetable that you think you would use throughout the week. Just be sure that there aren't rodents in the kitchen.

This vegetable gourmet basket would eliminate the use of impractical plastic fruit and vegetable decorations that supposedly demonstrating bounty, but because they aren't real, it gives negative impression.
