DIY KITCHEN MAKEOVER ✨ Renter-Friendly Transformation For a Small Kitchen (On A Budget)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- In this episode of Rental Redesign, I'm tackling my apartment kitchen. I have a small galley style kitchen with black counters and outdated cabinets. I'll show you a few easy renter-friendly tips, hacks and DIYs by changing out hardware, putting up removable subway tile wallpaper, and adding beautiful (and functional) decor pieces.
This kitchen makeover brings in rich, warm colors and a boho/eclectic aesthetic. The total cost came in right around $150. ✨ #kitchenmakeover

VIDEO UPDATE ALERT 🎉 I gave my kitchen a little decor refresh and reorganization. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/oDFnne_CPfE/v-deo.html
It looks great! Also glad you showed things that “ didn’t work so well” for you because that’s what will happen to all of us🤪
I love that you do styles other than farmhouse. It’s so hard to find channels that do other styles.
Hi Angela! Thank you! I used to do farmhouse, but my style has changed quite a bit. I'm loving playing around with some of the other decor trends!
@@willow9719 oh yes I love her channel also!
Lone Fox & Alexandra Gater are both great too! Also Kristen Gowen is my favorite
@@Saminice1977 Oh yea I love all of them also!
@@ActuallyAlli your channel is amazing. I’m still waiting for the moment when Russian bloggers start at least farmhouse style instead of SCANDY IKEA🥲
Wow you totally changed the space! I love that you showed a way to remake your kitchen without painting/covering the cabinets and counter. So good! Thanks for the inspo
I'm glad I could inspire you! I tried to keep it as realistic as possible for other renters as I could!
Your designs are much more effortless and realistic than other channels - It turned out so beautiful and inviting - thank you for being here for those of us who are just too busy for everything else - warm wishes and may you have the best of luck with your channel
You can level out your stove by the feet. Usually there are "screw feet" that can level out the stove. It will actually help with making your cooking more even because oils aren't pooling on one side and burning corners.
Amazing how just changing the color of the pot holders can make such an impact! Well done and very lovely!
Right? Just a few simple swaps can make all the difference
Amazing how different those few changes made the kitchen look. Very inspiring.
Thanks Ellen! I definitely didn't make major changes, but just like you said, it feels like a different room!
The end result is so pretty, warm, and welcoming. I liked that all of the changes are totally affordable, and can be done by most of us. Big impact at small cost. Thanks for posting this. You've made a new friend and subscriber.
Hi Cindy! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video and welcome 💜
Lady !! My kitchen is just like yours and you really inspired me to finally tackle mine after a year of living in this new place ! Thanks 🙏
Looks great! I would put the toaster in a cabinet to free up visual space on your counter. 😊
I was going to say move it to beside the microwave for more space on that counter and take the knife block out, but it's all personal functional and aesthetic preference.
She did a great job though; amazing what a difference a few small changes makes!
I really liked what you did in the kitchen. You did get it to the warm and inviting vibe. I especially liked the rug and the artwork.
This is very pretty. Its amazing how different a room can look by just changing some decor and colors. You're adorable! Keep on dancing!! ❤
Thanks Cyndi 🥰 I was nervous the small changes wouldn't look like much, but I think there's a big difference!
Yes!! Awesome just little changes,but they make a difference!!👍👍♥️😊😊🌲🌲🎀🎀
It has so much warmth now ❤️🇦🇺
This is literally the same exact layout as the apartment I'm moving into soon. This is a lifesaver!!!!
I'm so glad I could help!! Good luck with your move!
Awesome touches! I've wanted to use that wallpaper as backsplash also. I also like other styles besides farmhouse. Keep em ' coming ! 😊
Thank you! I definitely recommend the wallpaper. It took some patience, I'm glad I did it
This is exactly the type of kitchen makeover inspo I was looking for! Thank you!
I'm so glad I could help! Thanks for watching! 💗
So funny..I just switched to farmhouse doing over my whole house in it...I fell in love with it after watching so many you tube videos..
I used to do much more farmhouse decor, but have been playing around with new styles for fun. I think farmhouse is still a great decor style, I bet your home looks wonderful!
@@ActuallyAlli thanks Alli...I am thinking of adding in some BOHO as well as it seems to go nicely with farmhouse..
You've made it girl! Even though you encountered some obstacles you finally achieved a perfect makeover, I also love Macenna's channel, she is so inspiring but so you are.
Awe thank you! That's too sweet! I'm glad you enjoyed the makeover! A few small changes can make a big difference 💜
I'm a little late to the party but WOW. Very nice job. What a cute kitchen!
Young lady, you an amazing mini kitchen make over, I really appreciate you commenting on how you have to rethink your ideas sometimes it doesn't look the way you thought it would look. Keep up the amazing work 🌹💕
Love how everything turned out! I would change all the outlet covers to white.
I totally wanted to do that, but then the actual plug and switches would have still been off-white and that would have bothered me even more
@@ActuallyAlli It is very simple to change out the entire outlet, and they are only a few dollars... just turn off the power at the fuse box and unscrew the old ones, hook up the wires to the new ones (Usually just 2 but possibly 3 wires), and screw them back up, takes just a couple of minutes and will definitely make the space look even better.
I love it, too! I have the same 🙄 cabinets. I agree that when you rent, you just make it work and that boho vibe you picked up really freshened it up. I'm going to copy your ideas -- esp. the plants, wire baskets, switching out the d/w liquid container and putting my toaster on a stand on the counter.
I swear the littlest things make the biggest difference! I'm so happy I could help you with some inspiration 💜
love the kitchen rug..and the colors you combine in the kitchen...
What a difference a few small, inexpensive changes can make! It looks fantastic, especially the new rug! Great job!
Thanks Linda! Just the tiniest of changes really does help
I like the idea of the glass bottle pump for the dish detergent. I use an olive oil bottle, but it's a larger one and kind of cumbersome (wet hands, glass bottle lol). I think either one would keep me from squirting in too much dish soap. lol Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Yes! I got tired of having to grab the bottle and flip it over when my hands are already busy trying to do dishes. The glass dispenser has worked out great so far!
Such a good job, Alli! Very pretty kitchen.
Thanks Misty!
I really loved this kitchen make over.
Wow those changes made a big impact. Looks adorable!
Alli, I love it! That rug is gorgeous! It was a perfect anchor piece to style the rest of your kitchen. What a transformation. I am very inspired.
Thanks Lisa! The rug is favorite part of the whole room
Absolutely delightful!
Hi Alli! Loved seeing your silly side in this video! 😜
Kitchen looks great, especially love the rug!!!
I definitely had a lot of fun with this one!
Excellent job! Love the warm colors
Very well done. Since watching this I don't feel so overwhelmed about redoing my apartment style galley kitchen
It looks so so good alli! Very inspiring for my new space! 🖤🖤🖤
Omg yes! I thought I saw on IG that you have a new apartment 👀👀
I liked those handles that came with apt ....lol. The other ones look old fashion
Way to go!! 👍 What a awesome transformation!! So glad you found your style other than Farmhouse. It is hard to find videos of other styles than Farmhouse or Boho. So this is so refreshing!! Thank you!! 😊😊
omg never heard of antique wax!! Love how the small changes made a huge difference!
I learned about the antique through XO, MaCenna's channel and now I want to make more antique bronze DIYs
I love this Alli! So so good! Great job on this transformation! 🙌🏻😍🤍
Thanks so much Mia!!! 💗🥰✨
I love how you've made this makeover! The outcome is amazing using simple ideas! This shows that makeovers don't have to break the bank! You are extremely talented! Keep it up!
I believe in Victory Dancing 💃!!! Loved it
Love, love, love it!!!!😍😍😍
It looks so good Alli! I have a rental kitchen too, so know the challenges of making it more you without changing it.
I love the rug! It's exactly what I'm looking for! But I'm not in the US :(
Well done on another great video.
Thank you! I hope you can find the rug you're looking for, good thing is this rug style is really popular right now!
You did fabulously!!!
Looks great 👍🏾 You provide some very useful and crafty tips. Really love your channel. Definitely one of my favs 😊
Omg thanks so much Izzie, that means a lot to me 💜
You’re fun to watch and your ideas are great
Wow. It looks really good!
Love your kitchen. Great job. Gave me inspiration to redue mine.
Awesome! I'm lovin' it! It looked like you had a lot of fun doing that : )
I had SO much fun with this video. I think I planned it so long I was excited for it to finally come together
Turned out amazing!
Where did you get the basket tray you set on the bar?
In the description portion under the video, she said it's from Target.
@@lovingmayberry2000 that’s the wire basket that she sets on top of her fridge. I was wondering about the round tray basket she sets on the bar between the kitchen and living room.
I realized I forgot to mention it, I got it at Marshall's as well, so it's a bit of a one-of-a-kind find. Though Marshalls/TJ Maxx/Homegoods usually sells great trays
Good job!! It looks great!
Very nice. Looks much better. real plants with a cool grow light if you don’t get enough sun maybe in your next makeover. Cant beat nature.
I really love the turn out you did a fantastic job.
😁 I feel like this how my renovation is going to go ...you did your best boo I like it 👌
I just screen shot so much of that after scene. Lol I'm about to move and I love your colors and placement!
I love ur honesty!!! This would be me!!!!
😮 ohhhhh you did SUCH A GREAT JOB!
Well done Alli!
You did such a good job! Looks great
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks Tina!
this is a very cute update!! nice video !! ❤️
Is gorgeous! I love it!❤️
Love the idea of using painters tape to help hang things on walls! I have made way too many unnecessary extra holes in the wall trying to hang up pictures!
Yes! That was a great new trick to learn, I'm very excited to keep using it too
So cute!
Lovely little refresh! I actually prefer the current hardware to the ones you were going to swap it out for haha
And you can pick up some white or black outlet/light switch covers for super cheap. That would really tie it all together that much more 👌🏻😊
È venuta bellissima!!Complimenti!!
SO CUTE!!!
Thanks Anne!
It really looks good.
Looks fantastic!
Thank you Mary! 💜
Nice job! It looks great!
Thanks so much Brenda ✨
We have the same Hardware on our cabinets that you were putting up. There are two holes in the back of the handle so that you can make that adjustment.
Very NICE....the only thing I would suggest to change out the wall outlets to new ones in white.
Thank you for sharing love it
I love this
Amazing ✨✨✨
Alli,
I just watched for the first time one of your videos off of your IG post but when you watch them thru that entity you cannot leave a comment so........I went to your UA-cam site and subscribed.
I do not have any female friends to speak of literally other than IG friendships going onto 2 years plus and I wish I was a neighbor to many of them. I wish I was your neighbor too. I am sure I am a lot older than you but sometimes I get do excited when a DYI comes together I too do a little gig. Music or no music I do a gig.
Your kitchen reno is outstanding. Wow, new wallpaper, a new rug, a placement of cutting boards, etc simple items that really add a wonderful pop to your kitchen. In my former residence of 20 years I had a galley kitchen without a bar but it had one long counter top not on the food prep/stove side and it was so nice to craft on. It looked out to a very long balcony and I faced the fountain which was soothing to listen to and create. On your IG post with a photo of your dining room you said your table is where you craft so usually you eat on your couch. Have you ever thought of crafting on your kitchen bar? In closing, I love the new basket for your candle melt warmer. You gave me a super idea to put my warmer in the kitchen. I know exactly what box in the basement my warmer is in and hopefully I have melts left called ocean. I think this year I will use the warmer on the nautical revamped porch I created last summer. I never thought of using it out there until this second. I had an outlet rewired ladt summer and a new switch plate put on near an old credenza I dragged home from someone's curb. I do not know what you do for your career but if you ever want a part time job, realtors are always looking for stagers. If your ever interested in that take a before photo of your space and a after. Get with friends to redesign there space even if it is only to get a portfolio together. My condo was used often to show as a model for potential buyers when the one bedrooms were filled with boxes and scattered furniture buyers could see the scale of the rooms when furnished. The first time I said yes for my place to be shown a stage came in and she told the office she woukd not change a thing in my apartment accept to turn on my electric fireplace and bring in fresh flowers for my vases. So I had a treat of having flowers from time to time. The stager set her own hours and just learned it from staging her own place and her friends and she made pretty good money part time. Sorry for the novel, now I want to go buy a rug too for the kitchen. The kitchen has little heat so a rug would add nice warmth too. Thank you for wonderful inspirations on a cold Virginia Saturday. Love, Rebekah
You did an amazing job !! its so hard to spruce up a rental when you can't do too much actual reno
It really is a challenge, but it is fun trying to figure out how to customize it
Just so clever 😉 Love it,too Best wishes 💕
Wow brilliant 💗💓🐻🍁
Looks so great! I’m impressed with how you’ve worked with what you have and made it so beautiful:) I’m a renter too and it’s not easy!!
Renting is such a challenge sometimes, but it is fun to try to make it as personalized as possible
Ur kitchen looks so good!!!
Tfs
Thanks for watching Terri 💗
Loved what you did
Thanks so much Deborah 💜
You did a great job it looks so cute and functional. I am moving very soon and my kitchen is also very small so I got some cool ideas
Great job!
Thanks Joan!
Nice! Thanks for sharing 😉
Thanks for watching Gina 💜
Very nice!
U did a great job👍👍👍
Love the different ideas and how they all just flow into one another! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching!
New white outlet covers would look good
It turned out amazing! I wish you lived close to me, I would hire you to decorate my house. Love your videos!
I'd love to help!! Thanks so much💜
Beautiful 😍
You are adorable 😊Love your ideas
Any bubbles in the contact paper? Use a pin and prick a tiny hole. That will get rid of all the bubbles.
Yes!! This tip works great!
This was such an amazing makeover! It’s amazing how much you can do even when you’re limited by renting, I love how everything turned out!
Thanks Andrea! It was a challenge figuring out how to make what I had in my apartment work, but I think it turned out great too 💜
Very nice makeover bless
👍👍👍 V e r y n i c e 👍👍👍
Thanks so much 💜
You are very talented at decorating and styling your kitchen on a budget. I did notice that you put more than a few holes in the walls that would have to be repaired before moving out. Would command hooks work to achieve the same look? Otherwise, great job!!
You are so good with decorations. New subscriber to your channel.
Very cute
