Not being bowled over by the way our fridge looks (despite being in top condition) and this area of the kitchen in need of a little TLC, I feel there would be little justification at all (apart from the pure esthetical point of view ;-)!) to get rid of it and buy something a little more up to date.
The offending article
So I have been looking for clever alternatives which would not cost the Earth but brighten things up a bit.
In my search, I stumbled across this designer called Kodu Design that do supersize digital prints in vinyl or canvas for walls, cupboards door, fridges, appliances, laptops etc… It was exactly what I was looking for!
There are plenty of designs to choose from and they even offer a personalised service printing any of your photos should you have a favourite!
I ordered the Blue Bird design by Elina Kasesalu and received it promptly. It was packaged very well and suffered no damage even though it came all the way from Estonia.
Halfway There
I must admit that I was a little apprehensive and scared of sticking it on my fridge with only myself to trust… Anyhow after taking my time and following the detailed instructions step by step, it is totally easy and fuss free. Fridges are not the simplest of shapes to cover, but with a little time and perseverance I think I did a pretty good job!
Tricky Sticky
It is great fun and it looks stunning, the effect is perfect and has rejuvenated this otherwise dull corner of my kitchen. I would recommend it highly, now my tumble dryer next in need of TLC, so I think I am going to order one for it too..!
Job Done!
I’d love to hear if any of you have used this simple solution to revamp a room, so please send me your comments and pictures and I’ll stick them up on the blog!
Have fun! x

This is something that I would totally feature on Furniture and Design Ideas. I think all of us can think of an appliance that just needs a makeover. This is a fantastic idea for it.
