DIY fan transforms kitchen with 25p tiles and a £20 pot of paint from B&Q

A DIY fan transformed her kitchen with a £20 pot of paint from B&Q.

She used a foam roller to turn her units a vampy shade of black and added leather handles for an extra touch of luxury.

The wooden flooring was also switched out with bargain geometric tiles, which have a stylish marble finish.

As well as this, botanical wallpaper was covered in dark panelling.

And for a final flourish the table and chair set was replaced by a more rustic alternative.

Sleek brown chairs and a wooden bench gave the room a more modern feel – and we can’t get enough of the finished results.

On the DIY on a Budget Facebook group, the British woman revealed how they pulled off such an amazing transformation.

She wrote: “Wanted to share our DIY kitchen renovation if anybody’s thinking of painting their kitchen units!

“Painted units using B&Q own cabinet paint for £20 and cheap 25p metro tiles meant we could spend a bit more on the leather handles.

“We also added panelling ourselves and built the shelving unit and hidden door to hide the randomly placed electric box in the middle of the wall!

“Black isn’t for everybody but we love it!”

The Facebook post racked up dozens of likes – and many praised the DIYer for her handiwork.

One commenter gushed: “What an amazing transformation, well done.”

Another said: “This is absolutely stunning, love it!”

And a third added: “OMG this is fabulous been wanting a new kitchen for ages but units are perfectly fine.

“Might have ago at this. Well done looks stunning!”
