Sub-Blogs

Appliance Notes is a blog where I file all the new and interesting kitchen appliances I see in the course of my work. I also include articles on choosing appliances here.
Kitschy Kitchens is a blog where I critique the worst of the worst in kitchens. Poor design, an assault on the eyes, wrong colors, wrong materials; they all can be found there. Take an amusing detour to discover what you DON'T want in a kitchen.

Great New Kitchen Remodel Budget Calculator

I happened to be browsing today and ran across this Kitchen Budget Calculator from AK Complete Home Renovations in Atlanta, GA.

I just had to link to it to share with you.

It's an Excel Spreadsheet.
All you do is substitute either your home's current value or your total desired budget in one of the GREEN BOXES. Viola! All of the categories that you will be spending money on automatically allocate and you have your budget for each category.

A great way to see why a $60K budget doesn't allow for $25K in cabinets. Of course this calculator is designed to work well in the Atlanta, GA market. It might require a bit of tweaking for other areas of the country. Nonetheless it is a good exercise to perform when you are just starting out in planning your remodel.
