1. Choose the right colorThe color that you choose sets the mood in any waterfront homes for sale in 3 Rivers Pittsburgh. Some people prefer a white kitchen because they want a neat and tidy feel to one of the busiest areas in the home. Others prefer green since many believe that it is a relaxing shade because of its association with nature.

Other pale, light and pastel colors also provide a soothing and happy atmosphere. Yellow definitely brings joy in the kitchen because like the sun, it exudes a vibrant and energetic feel. Sticking to neutral colors is also a great way to stage your kitchen since they give potential buyers a new canvass and allow them to visualize their own kitchen when they visit your home.

2. Choose the proper lighting Dark rooms make people gloomy and sad. Put some life into your kitchen by giving light to it. Open the curtains. Pull the blinds up. Let the natural light flood in. You can hit two birds with one stone if your kitchen is next to your patio. Make sure that your patio is also neat and tidy. Clean the windows and change the lightbulbs to make the room brighter and more cheerful.

3. Use mirrors in the kitchenIn terms of function, having a mirror backsplash behind the sink is a great way to give the illusion of space. Hide splatters by going for an antiqued mirror over a clear one. Placement of a decorative mirror – whether big or small, hanging or on the shelf – adds warmth to your kitchen space.

4. Use a round tableA round table not only makes the kitchen more inviting, but it also makes it safer for everyone stepping in it. Potential buyers do not need to worry about bumping their hips or their children’s heads into table corners. Aside from the safety, this curved furniture also gives a warm and welcoming feel.
