Do you recognize this? You buy a new kitchen and love it. But after about five years it actually starts to itch again to make something else of it. Your tastes have changed or there may just be a trend in cuisines that you love. Buying a new kitchen is a shame, but you can of course restyle it. We give some inspiration tips.

Restyle the splashback If you have a splashback in the kitchen, you can easily replace or restyle it. For example, by replacing the tiles with a glass plate. That is also immediately much more hygienic. If you prefer not to replace the tiles, you can of course also paint them with special paint or buy tile stickers. That is also a budget solution.

Other kitchen cabinets?
What also immediately gives your kitchen a new look is replacing the doors of the kitchen cabinets. This costs a lot less money than replacing everything and you can also keep the old doors. Who knows, you might want to hang it back in a few years. If you prefer not to buy new doors, painting all of this is also a solution. However, this is a lot of work. If you don't like that, nowadays you also have special adhesive foil.

Don't want to restyle the entire door, but do you want to give it a different look? Then you can just replace the handles for something completely different. With leather handles, for example.

Lighting
Different lighting for your kitchen can also give a completely different atmosphere. For example, create extra atmosphere under the kitchen cabinets with LED strips. Or hang another lamp. You will see that this already does a lot for your kitchen.

Add accessories
Your kitchen will have a completely different look when you work with accessories in the same style. You can think of taps, spice racks and cutting boards. But also on the knife block, spoon holders, pepper mills and waste systems. When you coordinate these with each other, you create a unity and a pleasant atmosphere. In this way, decoration and function go very well together.

You can also dress it up with plants. This also makes the kitchen look a lot more homely.
