You'll find over 700 photos and illustrations alongside dozens of easy step-by-step projects: adding glass to a door, refacing cabinets, making an island, adding trash can slide-outs, installing a lazy Susan, applying countertop coating, installing cable lights, replacing a dishwasher, painting a floor pattern, installing ceramic-tile flooring, and many more. Each of these home improvement projects provides an incremental change that can make a big impact on your kitchen's appearance and utility.
