If you recently decided to revamp your kitchen with modern white laminate cabinets and furnishings, perhaps you would like to add a burst of color to the room to provide the cooking and dining area with a homey and inviting appearance. The suggestions that follow will help you add some personal touches that will add appeal to the kitchen.

Hang Pot Holders Or Cloths From Knobs

Colorful pot holders or cloths can be secured to the knobs of cabinets and will make it convenient for you to grab a piece of hot cookware or clean up a spill while you are preparing meals for your loved ones. Choose a color theme and opt for pot holders or cloths that are constructed of lightweight fabric. Instead of overpowering the room with too much color, choose to secure fabric items to a couple cabinet knobs, such as the knobs that are attached to the cabinets that are closest to the oven or sink. 

Add A Centerpiece And Place Settings

If you like flowers, creating a floral centerpiece is something for you to consider. Fresh flowers can be placed in a glass vase or you can purchase artificial flowers to create an arrangement. Before placing flowers in a vase, trim each flower's stem so that all of the stems are uniform in length. When making a centerpiece, take the colors of the pot holders and cloths into consideration so that you can create a decorative piece that will be complementary and that contains flowers that are a variety of colors and textures.

Purchase vinyl or fabric place mats and set them on top of the laminate table. Buy some solid colored plates and cups to finish off each place setting. During intimate gatherings, enhance the dining area by dimming the standard lighting in the room and adding a couple candles to the table. 

Cover Portions Of The Flooring With Throw Rugs

Small throw rugs will hide imperfections on the floor and will prevent dirt from accumulating in high traffic areas. Take your time while shopping for throw rugs so that you can purchase floor coverings that are colorful, easy to wash, and lightweight. If you purchase some extra rugs, you will have spare floor coverings whenever you would like to launder the original set of rugs. The extra rugs will also come in handy if you would like to accent some additional parts of the floor.
