Galley Kitchen Remodel - Start With Cabinets And Lighting

There are a lot of different things you can do to make a change in your kitchen. Galley kitchen remodel ideas that won't break the bank include getting new knobs and pulls for your cabinets, getting new lighting fixtures, and painting the walls (and possibly the cabinets too).

For those interested in galley kitchen remodel ideas for new kitchen lighting fixtures, one idea is to install cabinet lighting such as the 10581 - Series II - Direct Wire Cabinet Lighting 3 Light Kitchen Cabinet Light by Kichler ($88.00 each). This type of task area lighting is a popular kitchen feature.

Other galley kitchen remodel ideas for new kitchen lighting include installing a lighting fixture over your island (if you have one) such as the 956 - Belcaro 6 Light Island Light by Minka Lavery ($382.34), which is inspired by the 17th Century Farmhouse Style. You could also install a new ceiling lighting fixture for general ambient light in the kitchen if you are not installing an island light, such as the PCCH-18 - Prairie 4 Light Ceiling Pendant by Arroyo Craftsman for $442.80.

Painting is another of the galley kitchen remodel ideas that isn't very expensive and can make a big difference. Most designers recommend colors that belong in the orange and yellow families for kitchens. Valspar has some suggested color combinations for galley kitchen remodel ideas involving painting. One I like uses Swan Dive (SR105) for the cabinets, Island Shores (SR509) for an accent color, and Chilled Cantaloupe (SR507) for the wall color. Another combination you can use for galley kitchen remodel ideas is Dill (EB10-3) for the walls, Bamboo (EB11-1) for the accent color, and Linen (EB12-2) for the cabinets.
