3 Country Kitchen Budget Makeover Projects
Country Kitchens are a huge trend in kitchens. I love redecorating an existing kitchen into a country kitchen design because there so many budget and cheap country kitchen makeovers that homeowners can do themselves.
Here are three of my favorite budget country kitchen makeover projects. These country kitchen DIY projects can be accomplished in a weekend or a matter of hours!
Painted Country Kitchen Cabinets
Painted kitchen cabinets are one of the most dramatic and super cheap ways to start on your path to a country kitchen. Be sure to sand and prime your kitchen cabinets before you resurface them to fit crountry kitchen dcor.
Paint colors of country kitchen cabinets can vary greatly. White is always a popular country kitchen cabinet color and a safe bet if you are worried about choosing a color.
Other options for paint color in a country kitchen would be a nice warm yellow, a rustic blue, or even a barn red.
A gallon or two of paint won't even cost you $50 and you will be amazed at the difference in your new country kitchen.
Rustic Country Kitchen Hardware
You can change just about any kitchen cabinet hardware to fit a rustic country kitchen. Any metal or wood kitchen cabinet handle or hardware can be painted. Be sure to choose paint that matches your surface.
If you have metal kitchen cabinet hardware, then use a metal prier first. Let this dry, then pain the cabinet hardware out in almost any color. Red is a fun country look that can really add a pop of color.
Rustic hammer metal spray paints also look perfect in a budget country kitchen. You can also use faux rust paint treatments.
Finally, if you went with a colored country kitchen cabinet on your budget country kitchen makeover, then try painting your kitchen cabinet hardware out in an antique white paint finish. You can buy antique white spray paint kits at the local home improvement store.
Country Kitchen Beadboard Decor
Beadboard anything is also a wonder way to get a country kitchen on a budget. You can add beadboard to almost any surface.
Do not be scared to work with beadboard. You can buy traditional bead board by the piece or easier to handle faux beadboard by the sheet.
Bead board can be added to the back splash to create a country kitchen backsplash in minutes. Simply use glue on the back of the beadboard., press it into the wall and then use small finishing nails to hold it into place.
You can also use bead board on the country kitchen cabinets as well!

Would you be interested in having a working, hand operated, antique style pump on your kitchen counter sink?
A few years ago we built a new and larger kitchen on to our house. Being a ranch style home in the country we decided on an old style country kitchen design with a porclein sink in the counter and when deciding on what sink and faucet combination for the island we came up with the idea of a working pump and brass sink. I engineered a tank and keep fill system that sits under the counter and holds five gallons of filtered water from our existing well water supply. It works great and everyone who sees it seems to like it. I have been considering assembling kits for the do-it-yourselfer's or contractors and offering them for sale but don't know if there is a market for such an idea. Having been a frequent viewer here I thought this may be a good place to test the idea out.
What do you think?
