The kitchen is said to be the heart of the home; the place where meals are made, late-night snacks are snaffled, and families debrief about their days.
Given we spend so much time in our kitchens, it makes sense to want a space that’s as aesthetically-pleasing as it is practical.
If you’re looking to update your decor, you’ll be pleased to know you don’t need to spend a fortune. In fact, thanks to interiors influencer Krystal Smit, you can give the room a touch of luxe for less than £30.
Krystal shared her top Amazon buys ‘to elevate your kitchen styling’ on Instagram recently, captioning the video: ‘I love finding pieces that add character, but also function. And I can confirm all these pieces are holding up great!’
Each find, from intricate glassware to smart storage that blends in seamlessly, looks stunning in her minimalist home. You’d also never believe they were budget-friendly pieces you can pick up online.
Inspired by the idea, here are some of the products from Krystal’s post, plus some top recommendations from us for making your kitchen look plush.
