Interested in doing a kitchen makeover? One of the best ideas to consider is doing away with cabinets and opting for open shelves instead. Not only does it bring a fresh and open look, but it also creates greater access to tools and servewares, allows more space for movement, and reduces the problems of dust, grimes and mould.

The DIY
Put your woodworking skills to test by making your own open shelves and cupboards! This will give a personal touch to your house like no other.
Green is Good
Open shelving provides more opportunity to incorporate plants in the kitchen, which make for great decorations and health-improving addition to the house. Want more functionality? Consider edible plants that can be grown indoors, such as rosemary or basil.
Over the Bar
Putting a hanging shelf over the bar table will not only give a fancy, industrial look, but it will also allow you to entertain your guests in a quicker, more accessible way.
