Mum transforms ‘horrendous’ kitchen worktops into dream space for just £18

A savvy mum has revealed how she transformed her boring kitchen into her dream space.

Charlene Da Cova, 34, was bored of the plain worktop in her kitchen but didn't want to spend a lot of money refitting it.

Instead she managed to turn it into her dream room and it only cost her £18 thanks to B&M Stores.

Speaking to LatestDeals.co.uk, she said: "After moving into my new flat and panicking how I was going to afford to redecorate.

"I took to social media looking for affordable ideas on how to renovate my kitchen.

"When we moved in, we were told our kitchen would be refitted.

"But we've been put off so many times by our landlord, we thought about leaving it and living with it the way it was."

Charlene ended up doing it on a budget and she took inspiration from Instagram where she came across the handy self-adhesive.

She went to B&M and spotted it for £8.99, then purchased the marble look which she used in her kitchen.

Now the mum is over the moon with her kitchen and says the self-adhesive vinyl is fantastic when redecorating on a budget.

She added: "I took my self-adhesive, a bank card to smooth it out and some silicone to fill the edges."

Charlene continued: "It took around half an hour and cost me a total of £18 with the silicone.

"I was over the moon with the final result. When I finished I was amazed about how nice it looked.

"I've also since found out you can use this on cupboards, fridges, washing machines and doors."

Co-founder of LatestDeals, Tom Church said: "Self-adhesive vinyl is a fantastic tool for transforming kitchens, bathrooms and more."

He continued: "It's affordable, easy to get the hang of, and really quick to use.

"Charlene's bank card trick is a great way to make sure the finish is really smooth.

"It's certainly a lot better for the bank balance than splurging on a new kitchen, and no one will know the difference!"
