12 Reasons to Make Kitchen Remodeling a Priority in 2008

12 Reasons to Make Kitchen Remodeling a Priority in 2008

Has holiday entertaining been an all-too-constant reminder of your need for kitchen remodeling? Take note, and plan for a spring renovation for merrier holidays next time around. Here’s how to fix the twelve strains of Christmas:

 

Neck crick. Instead of peering into dark cabinets to locate the last can of organic chicken broth, let the chicken broth come to you. Remodel with base cabinets, pantry cabinets or islands outfitted with roll-out trays that extend fully, even when they are loaded down with canned cranberry sauce.

 

Delayed imbibing. Couldn’t find the bubbly? Organize your spirits with a criss-cross wine rack, wine cubbie or wine closet from StarMark Cabinetry.

 

Skull knots. Your lobster pot left an egg on your head when you pulled it off the top of the cabinets. Choose a base kitchen cabinet with deep drawers to swallow bulky roasters, colanders, pots and pans.

 

Scraped knuckles. Like their roll trays, StarMark’s cabinets extend fully, even the deep drawers. (See injury above.) You can easily reach every last piece of cutlery, even the pickle fork.

 

Shin splints. Did you hoof it all over the kitchen finding baking supplies? In your remodel, reserve a cabinet just for you with an adjustable spice rack to customize the storage to your style of baking. You deserve it.

 

Bruised ribs. Heavy stand mixers are awkward to move around. A flip-up mixer shelf stores your mixer until you need it and swooshes it to you politely. Yes, you deserve this, too.

 

Stubbed toe. The fondue pot was useful when you hosted your hyper nieces. Now it lies on the pantry floor and you keep cracking your toe on it. If you won’t use it again for 11 months, store it on a StarMark Cabinetry blind corner pantry shelf. This handy shelf turns dead space into a nook for seasonal items.

 

Groin pull. Hurdling over extension cords is dangerous. Consider an outlet on your island or peninsula so the apple cider can simmer undisturbed in a crock pot.

 

Hearing loss. Crash, bang, thud! A kitchen can be noisy. But not a StarMark Cabinetry kitchen. Blumotion Soft Close is standard on drawers and roll trays. They self-close the last two inches. Quietly.

 

Chipped bone. Bone china, that is. Choose StarMark Cabinetry roll-out trays with a non-slip surface. Shelf contents won’t crash around during a sudden stop. Bonus: the railings are spiffy chrome.

 

Kids underfoot. In your remodel, think about an area just for the kiddos. Corral snacks, crafts, toys and necessities so they are accessible without help from Mom. Include a refrigerator drawer for after school snacks.

 

Lethargy. Remodel your tired kitchen not just for function, but to lift spirits. Consider two or more finishes: the kitchen in one finish, an island in another and a standalone piece (sideboard, hutch, desk) in another.
