Install your own countertop
In an effort to update our kitchen, we tackle an area each year. So far we have installed new flooring, given it a fresh coat of wall paint and re-painted the cabinets(they will be replaced eventually.)

Maybe it will inspire you to brave something new in your own kitchen or bathroom this year.
