Stop before you replace those drab-looking kitchen appliances! Whether you have a dented refrigerator, a scratched dishwasher, or an outdated mustard-colored oven, there are inexpensive ways to make your still-viable small kitchen appliances match updated kitchen decor. Think paint, veneer, or magnet: three great ways to color your cooking world with a fresh look.
Painting Small Appliances
Nothing enlivens the look of your home interior like the splashing of color. Paint especially made for small kitchen appliances will stick to clean, dry surfaces and give you the artistic satisfaction you demand from your kitchen. You might need to sand before painting if the appliance surface has deep dents. Small appliances that heat up will require heat-resistant paint. With a new color or a dimensional paint that creates the look of rough rock or granite, an old-looking small kitchen appliance can become trendy or stylish as fast as the paint can dry.
Veneer
An alternative to painting small kitchen appliances is to use veneer sheets for smoother coverage over scratches and dents in your small kitchen appliance surfaces. Various styles, colors, and sizes are available to help you put that finished look on your small kitchen appliances.
Magnet Sheets
For the more fickle small kitchen appliance owner, giving your small kitchen appliances a paint or veneer makeover may seem too permanent. If you think you'll get bored with the new look, magnet sheets offer simple removal and replacement without damaging the appliance surface of large or small kitchen appliances.

Magnet sheets can be plain, colored, or printed. An image or a favorite scene can be printed on large or small printable magnet sheets to transform your typical small kitchen appliance into an artistic expression of your own living style.
To freshen the look of outdated small kitchen appliances, consider painting the small appliances or covering them with veneer or magnet sheets. With these options, you don't have to sacrifice style to keep older small appliances humming.
