Since a couple of months, I was thinking about the up gradation of my home that I have bought from the previous house-owner. The house is apparently good, but I think the previous owner did not care sufficiently for the maintenance of it. Anyway, it is better to think about the next, not to criticize anyone.
I have visited many sites in the net and have made a consolidated plan for the renovation of the total house. I was thinking where to start and finally decided that from the kitchen. I preferred for the most updated and modern look for my kitchen. As well as I was searching through some images of modern designs of kitchens in Google, but it I thought might be a little bit over-smartness to start with a DIY style. So, I asked a consultant for the better review of my interior and to get the best scheme that would be suitable according to my desire and interior area. The decision I have taken was no doubt a wise one because I have got some catalogs from the contractor and saw a lot of designs on modern kitchen. From it, I chose a sleek granite counter top for my kitchen.
As soon as the counter top design is finalized, I asked him about the
under cabinet lighting for my kitchen. Actually, I have heard a lot about under cabinet lights from my friends and as I had no clear knowledge on this type of lighting and I was worried about the excessive price tag of that entire lighting design. But my consultant has shown some wonderful designs of lighting and also shown some videos on the techniques of the installation of such lights, and really those are very straightway and easy to install and the most important thing is it costs no extra amount.
I am now using my new stylized kitchen and it is really bright. I am very glad to say, I have decided the right thing for my home. One thing I understood, and that is DIY kitchen does not mean always you will be your own consultant. You must think about your design, but commanding over all techniques and nitty-gritty is not a good solution. A consultant is always a plus-point if you want an overall perfect finish. Now, whenever my friends visit, at first they always talk about the under cabinet lighting in my kitchen. I have used a mix of halogen and
LED lights under the cabinets and used dimmers in some of them. I must say it is always giving a dramatic and elegant effect at night over the counter top area. One of my friends has collected the contact number of my consultant and he and his wife also have made the renovation of their kitchen. Now we both are enjoying the lighting of our kitchens. All those we have done without paying thousands of dollars.
Later, I have done some DIY jobs in the other parts of the kitchen and living room. Now I am planning about the external lighting. But all the things I am now doing with the information that I have got from some exceptional sites on
kitchen lighting. I must appreciate the webmasters of those sites for helping me in this context.
