5 Gift Ideas For Someone Going Through A Kitchen Remodel
Embarking on a home renovation is an exciting time. Finally, that house is becoming the dream home you’ve been yearning for, and it’s going to have your personal touches embedded throughout. However, if you’ve been through a remodel before, you know just how much it can disrupt your daily routine, inject inconvenience, and add a layer of stress to the everyday. And if that remodel involves your kitchen, multiply that inconvenience factor by ten for a duration of 3-5 months. Do you know someone who is currently going through or about to embark on a kitchen renovation? Do them a favor and consider these thoughtful gifts this holiday season to help make their lives a little easier as they eagerly await their project’s completion.
A Subscription to Daily Harvest
Meal delivery services are a great idea for a family that’s been displaced from their kitchen. Just make sure you choose one like Daily Harvest, which doesn’t require any additional prep or cooking. While companies like Blue Apron and HelloFresh make cooking easier and exciting, they still require counter space, pots, pans, extra dishes, and, well… cooking.
A Microwave
It’s no surprise that a microwave can go a long way for a family with shoddy access to a stove or oven. Why not contribute to the kitchen remodeling process while making their lives a little easier by gifting them the microwave of their dreams a little early? However, we recommend consulting with the recipients to make sure the microwave matches their other new appliances and the new kitchen’s esthetic.
A Toaster Oven
Microwave not tickling your fancy? How about a toaster oven? This Ninja Foodi has 8 functions and folds up and away to keep counters clear when not in use. Again, consider consulting the recipients before making a purchase for their new kitchen, but a quality toaster oven can definitely upgrade those frozen or reheated meals during the renovation process, and will continue to serve the family well when their new kitchen is up and running.
A Gift Certificate to Their Favorite Restaurant
Get the family out of the construction zone for a bit by treating them to a meal at their favorite restaurant. With the expense of a remodel hanging over their heads, it’s quite possible that this family is trying to keep spending at bay and cutting back on dining out, so take that stress off the table for a night by giving them an evening of good food without the cleanup.
A Countertop Filtered Water Dispenser
For the days when the water is turned off and the sinks have been ripped out, a high-volume water dispenser like this PUR Filter or this elegant SS Gravity Filter will provide refreshing filtered water all day long. Water is a necessity, need we say more?
Whatever you end up gifting to that special someone who’s going through a kitchen renovation, they will appreciate you taking the time to think about their needs during this transitional phase. And if they’re still searching for the perfect cabinetry for their dream kitchen, point them to CBM Mart’s catalogue of kitchen cabinets for a wide selection of styles in an affordable price range.
