9 Genius Kitchen Decor Hacks 

1. Open Shelves

Replace the upper cabinets with open shelves and show off your choice of dishware and plants. Designers recommend this approach for its light touch; white ceramics combined with brass are always in style. Tip is do not overcrowd the shelves; make sure no more than 70 per cent is occupied.

2. Peel-And-Stick Tiles

Replace traditional tiles with vinyl or metallic tile stickers or wallpapers that can be applied in less than an hour, without causing much mess and look aesthetic for that Pinteresty vibe. You can also choose subway tiles in pastel colours to create an illusion of luxury marble.

3. Under-Cabinet Lights

Use LED strips attached under the cabinets to create a professional look for your work area. Motion detectors allow you to save energy at night while enjoying your cup of tea.
