Try Out This Bold Trend For A More Eye-Catching Kitchen

Looking for ways to revamp your kitchen? While there are tons of ideas for a kitchen remodel, you don't have to redo the entire room to give the area a new look. There are far less costly and time-consuming options that can still renew your kitchen's entire aesthetic. You may consider upgrading your backsplash or cabinets. You might even want to switch up your countertops or add an eye-catching area rug. These are some of the more common kitchen upgrades, but there are other options that are not often considered, like your kitchen's range hood. The range hood keeps cooking fumes under control, but it is also a great way to make a bold statement and give your space new life.

The range hood is often forgotten about but is a great option if you are looking to add a striking color or design to your kitchen. Most people leave their kitchen range hoods the same neutral color manufacturers select. However, you shouldn't be afraid to get creative. An unconventional approach to your kitchen redesign may help you achieve the look you want.

There are many design ideas to choose from when it comes to selecting a statement range hood for your kitchen. If you're looking for creative ways to add a pop of color, you may consider a brightly colored range hood. Williams Sonoma's 36-inch SMEG Portofino Wall Ventilation Hood comes in a fiery bright red. The brand also has a 48-inch option that comes in a number of other eye-catching colors, including yellow, green, and orange. You would likely have no problem finding a kitchen range hood in your desired color.

If you prefer your kitchen range hood's structural design to be its focal point, Hoodsly's made-to-order wooden kitchen range hoods might be a good fit. These come in a variety of builds, including curved, tapered, bell-shaped, and more. You can also select from your choice of steel, brass, or wooden strapping to customize your design even further. These kitchen range hoods either come painted, or you can purchase a paint-ready version to create a unique design at home. Zline's hammered copper and oil-rubbed bronze range hood from The Range Hood Store is another bold option that features a modern design.

Although it may be best to have a professional install your new kitchen range hood, you will find that there are a few tutorials across the internet on how to customize your existing kitchen range hood yourself. If you do decide to go this route, there are a few precautions to keep in mind. First, ensure you use heat-resistant appliance paint to avoid fire hazards. Next, turn off all appliances located in or near the area you will be working. Be sure to cover all surfaces you want to avoid painting, including the oven and stovetop, surrounding walls, and countertops.

If you would like to paint your kitchen range hood, the painting method you use will depend on the material it is made of. Some DIY enthusiasts have experimented with spray paint, but you can use paint from a can and a paintbrush. Regardless of the range hood you have or the painting method you choose, ensure you do not get paint on the inside, as it could interfere with the internal components that enable proper ventilation.
