What budget steps warm up a cool blue kitchen first and effectively?

Start budget-friendly by switching to 2700 to 3000 kelvin LEDs with 90 plus CRI and changing nickel hardware to brass, all under one hundred dollars. Then, invest around five hundred dollars in a runner rug with warm rust and ochre hues plus incorporating wood accents. These steps add immediate warmth, texture, and cohesion without expensive cabinet or flooring updates, providing excellent value for comfort.
