Redecorating or renovating your home in 2019

Here are a few trends for 2019 to get you started!

Kitchen remodeling trends in 2019

Full-tile Backsplash to Feature Walls

While having backsplash tile is nothing new in kitchens the newest concept is going all the way to the ceiling with the backsplash to cover an entire wall section.

Cream-colored Cabinets

Many homeowners are moving away from the bright whites and embracing off-whites that feel warmer and cozier. Creamy cabinets paired with other warm finishes like wood and a blue-gray tile create a calm and serene feel.

'Tuxedo' Kitchens

Large swaths of black range hoods, island accent colors and even full-on all-black cabinetry has been making a comeback. Pair black cabinets with white walls, backsplash and counter tops for a dynamic, sophisticated look.

Wood on Wood

Wood adds a ton of warmth and character to your home, and it pairs well with whites and grays, two of the most popular colors for kitchen cabinets and walls.

Natural Wood Vanities

Wood vanities help bring the feeling of warmth to a bathroom so it feels less commercial.

No-glass Showers

If you have got the room in your bathroom, you can create a completely open shower area to make your space feel more like a spa!
