Workbook Your Project
Start by creating a workbook. This can be done online or copies from magazines. When you see an image you like save, print or tag it. This allows you to see similarities in all the pictures you have chosen. This helps you to narrow your search for cabinets, counter tops, backsplash and floors.

Work up a Budget
Do you know the number one remodeling project in American homes each year? Kitchens. There’s a good reason for this—not only do people spend a good portion of their day in the kitchen, but a healthy percentage of home entertaining takes place there as well. A kitchen remodel tends to range from 10 – 30 percent of the home value.
