Who says DIY
is only for the men? Women too can try their hand at a variety of DIY projects,
with the easy-to-handle tools now available. There are so many ideas for DIY
all over our home, let us try to go room by room to see what all we can
accomplish. This week, we’re looking at the kitchen space and all we can do
there:
First step – Appliances: From citrus juicers to food processors
to our microwaves and ovens, we tend to crowd our kitchens with gadgets and
most of these are not always required for day-to-day use. Make simple stands
for gadgets like ovens and microwaves to move them off your kitchen slab, and
put away the rest into cupboards to take out when needed.
Check your walls: We often find that how much ever
space we plan for in our kitchen slab, somewhere along the way it becomes a
storehouse for all our pots and pans and cleaning apparatus as well. The
simplest way to tackle this would be to put up rods and hooks or a similar
arrangement on the free wall space so that many of our pans and spoons can be
hung up and free up our space.

Use the ceiling space too: If you are lucky enough to have space
for a kitchen island type of arrangement, then make sure to use the space above
it for hanging your pans and other odds and ends too. This kind of frame can
easily be made with DIY, or even scrounging the old furniture shops for a
similar arrangement and then up-cycling it with some polishing can give lovely
results.
Paint a wall: When painting our entire home, it
gets tough to concentrate on specific areas and sometimes you may not be
completely satisfied with the end result. It’s easy to remedy it using tools
like the Black & Decker Rapid Roller that makes paint jobs so much less
messy. You can give this task another twist by painting parts of your wall or
cupboards in blackboard paint that gives you easy and reusable writing pads
too.
The next time
you enter your kitchen, do look over it with a critical eye and I’m sure you’ll
get many more ideas too. Do check out our range of tools at Black & Decker
that can support you well in this task:
