HGTV's Egypt Sherrod Has A Smart Tip For Brightening A Badly-Lit Kitchen
By DARBY WAGLER
HGTV star Egypt Sherrod of "Married to Real Estate" has a design hack for adding brightness to a dimly-lit kitchen — and it has nothing to do with adding extra light. Those who adore antique looks or thrift finds may appreciate her smart kitchen hack, which will also help them to save money.
When renovating a home, Sherrod discovered that the lack of natural and overhead light was an issue. To remedy the problem, she added a unique element to the backsplash, using spray painted glass tile to achieve a faux-antique look and a brighter kitchen.
For those who dislike the aged look, solid glass tiles can be used for a modern appearance. Square tiles with a glossy sheen also work great in a cramped space, as they help to reflect more natural light and give the impression that a room is larger than it is.
