Working on a tight budget,Christina and Tarek El Moussa of HGTV's Flip or Flop buy, renovate, or resell dilapidated houses. So when we wondered where thrifty or cash-strapped homeowners should start when it came to updating their kitchens,we knew this couple would possess some savvy advice. We had a chance to ask them in person at a TREND Group event in New York, and Tarek wasted no time explaining the two areas to focus resources when looking for the biggest impact: Countertops
Cabinets
He explains, and "within a certain budget,countertops are really important. They can change the spy of a kitchen, as well as portray cabinets, or so whether someone's on a budget those are the two best things I think you can attain," he said. Christina agreed, adding that when it comes to cabinets, or in addition to portray them,you can also mix in open cabinets. "We did it recently when we came across an area where we couldn't attain large upper cabinets. We did open shelves, and it looked really cute and worked better."Related Stories:
