Designer Kitchen on an IKEA Budget?

from Simplify and Enjoy Podcast · host Elle Martinez

We're planning on renovating our kitchen, but we don't want to break our budget. Is it possible to have a designer kitchen on an IKEA budget? We'll find out today! Kitchen Reno on a Budget One of our big goals for 2020 is finally updating our kitchen. When we moved into our house four years ago, we knew there were going to be some projects. While the house definitely had some great bones and had a timeless quality to them, there were rooms that felt a bit…well dated. You got the stylish parquet floor in the dining room butting up against the dingy tile in the kitchen. While a kitchen update is in itself a challenge, there are some factors that came into play to require some more creativity with both the budget and design. For one, our original plan was to work on the kitchen this winter and then come summer we were going to buy a replacement commuter car for my husband. There's a lot to juggle and besides having a kitchen we love, we also want to keep it affordable.
