Kitchen decorating tip from mum after £28 adhesive wrap find

A clever mum has told how she transformed her kitchen with a £28 adhesive wrap from Amazon.

Karisha Williams was originally quoted a staggering £7,000 for a professional upgrade to her kitchen.

The homeowner was shocked at the quote - so decided to call on her DIY skills to get the job done herself.

She wrapped her kitchen in the white adhesive sheets, and added some pink kitchen appliances to complete the look.

Revealing the finished thing on Facebook page, Mrs Hinch Made Me Do It, Karisha wrote: "I was quoted over £600 for my kitchen cupboards to be wrapped!!

"And £7000 for a new kitchen. So I bought a new side and wrapped the cupboards myself.

"So I bought a new side, wrapped the cupboards myself and paid for the tiles to be put on the wall.

"Not many like just white BUT when I want to change my appliances, any colour will go."

She also added a link to the budget wrap on her Facebook post - as well as an image showing the old wooden kitchen.

The post generated masses of opinion, with many saying they loved the fresh look and praising Karisha on her DIY skills.

One Facebook user said, "Looks lovely. Love the pink accessories" while another added, "Wow its beautiful. That looks amazing!!! I love the colour theme."

Others revealed they too had been quoted hundreds and even thousands for their kitchen refurb.

One said: "I'm paying £580 on Wednesday for mine to be wrapped. Well done doing it yourself."
