Kitchen décor doesn’t have to be complicated. If you are handy, then here are some tips on decorating that are easy and inexpensive. Use these tips to stimulate your imagination so that you can create a kitchen that is customized to your tastes and budget.

Go Faux
Use faux painting technique to create dramatic effects in the kitchen. For a Tuscan kitchen, a faux plaster painting is perfect, you can also use rag rolling, sponging and even faux marbelling for dramatic effect.

Use That Empty Space!
The upper shelves of bookcases or bakers racks or even cabinets can be used for candles, family pictures, fancy bowls or larger ornaments in odd number groupings of 1, 3 or 5 pieces.

Cabinets Redoing your kitchen cabinet design can make a huge change in your kitchen. If you can afford to have new cabinets put in, consider changing the configuration for maximum efficiency and effect. If you can\'t, you can change the look of your cabinets with simple and inexpensive methods, or you can have them entirely resurfaced and they will be like new. Install A Plate Rack Use an open plate rack to show off your collection of plates as well as save storage space in the cabinets. Brighten Up The Kitchen Use mirrors to capture the sunlight and bounce it around. Try putting a mirror across from a window or on a wall that corners against the window wall for the most light distribution.
