Nowadays, it is all the rage to incorporate reclaimed materials into your kitchen improvement project. And of course, the benefits are plentiful; you are getting a unique feature to your kitchen that looks sleek and stylish at little cost. For that extra rustic touch, Cawarden Brick & Tile Company would wholly recommend using reclaimed wood within your project. Repurposed wood adds character and can be sustainably sourced, making it an environmentally friendly option that is durable and versatile. Below, Cawarden Brick & Tile Company have listed 4 simple ways that you could utilise reclaimed wood with your kitchen redecoration project.
Mug holder
All that is needed to realise this project is a plank of wood that has been responsibly sourced, and large hooks. Simply attach the hooks to the wood, and ensure that the hooks have been spaced out for maximum holding potential. You now have a really eye-catching way to store your favourite mugs.
Create a kitchen island
A kitchen island is always a great solution for a kitchen that is lacking in countertop space. To build your own island from reclaimed wood, all you’ll need is five planks of pallet board wood and tough screws to hold the entire structure together. Your island can be painted in any colour you desire, or left with its natural hue for an aesthetic appeal.
Chalk message board
Are you constantly forgetting to write products on your shopping list? Create a chalk message board from four pallet board planks and chalkboard paint and hang it in the kitchen, and you’ll never forget the groceries again! The message board could also make a great present for your forgetful friends.
Wooden clock
Creating a wooden clock is a very simple way to introduce neutral colours into an otherwise bright kitchen. We love this article from Brit & Co in which they provide a really simple list of instructions on how to create a stylish and unique clock using wooden foundations.
