    24 Things From Target That’ll Make Your Kitchen Feel New Without An Actual Renovation

    Updates so good, you'll actually want to meal plan.

    1. A vinyl peel-and-stick wallpaper that will give you that subway tile look without a full-blown reno — in fact, you can do it all by yourself in an afternoon!

    2. A 12-pack of glass spice jars, because while variety might be the ~spice of life,~ these uniform spice jars are the key to a super cute and organized kitchen.

    3. A stainless-steel, hands-free step trash can that not only gets the job done but is actually surprisingly chic for something that, ya know, holds garbage.

    4. A 10-piece Cuisinart stainless-steel cookware set that will upgrade your hodge-podge collection of pots and pans and set you on your path to becoming a Top Chef (or just a really great home cook!).

    5. And a wall-mounted pot rack to display your new matching set of pots and pans but also just make you look LEGIT.

    6. An extremely stylish kitchen mat that will brighten up your space, protect your floor from water sloshes, and — if you can believe it — make doing dishes much more enjoyable by giving your feet something soft to stand on.

    7. A 10-piece set of glass food storage containers because those old tomato-stained plastic ones just aren't the look you're going for anymore.

    8. A 6-quart Instant Pot, which is basically like having a sous chef on staff because this 7-in-1 appliance does it all... except put itself in the dishwasher for cleanup (but the lid and inner pot are dishwasher safe!).

    9. A 10-piece wood and silicone kitchen tool set that will, among other things, introduce you to the MVP of all kitchen tools: the spoonula. You will use it for EVERYTHING.

    10. An expandable bamboo spice rack because showing off your herbs and spices — and therefore your impressive palate — is a pretty great flex.

    11. A 15-piece knife block set that is a cut above the rest and will make mise en place a breeze.

    12. A smart and practical marble spoon rest because a big part of your kitchen refresh is keeping those countertops clean... right?

    13. A space-saving turntable, so you aren't spinning around in circles when you're looking for your most-used ingredients.

    14. An oven thermometer so you can get a sense of your oven's actual temperature while you cook and bake (but also no longer have the excuse that it was your oven's fault everything burned).

    15. A drawer utensil organizer because the battle with the potato masher that's been jamming the drawer is getting a liiiiiiiittle old.

    16. A stackable bamboo shelf so your kitchen stacks up to the ones you see in the one million home organization accounts you follow on Instagram.

    17. A small-but-mighty Ninja food processor that will quite literally chop your food prep time in half — and can then go right into the dishwasher for easy cleanup.

    18. A nonslip bamboo cutting board so you can show off your fancy new knife skills knowing the only thing that will get sliced is those veggies (and not your hands!).

    19. A hard-working, multi-tasking Scrub Mommy sponge that can tackle even the toughest dishes — and leave you both smiling at the end.

    20. A clear organizing bin for your fridge or your pantry, because setting up systems helps you with your grocery shopping and meal planning... but also it just looks prettier.

    21. A five-pack of classic striped kitchen towels that you'll want to always have on hand and in hand so your messes don't get, uhhh, out of hand.

    22. A bakeware rack so your pots and pans don't sound like the percussion section of a middle school band each time you reach for a muffin tin. No disrespect to you and your classmates — you all were great.

    23. A stainless-steel compost bin that you can keep on your countertop or attach to your regular trash can, because it feels good when you can makeover your kitchen AND do something kind for Mother Earth at the same time.

    24. A counter-height stool that will finally give you the vibe you've been working toward — sophisticated, comfortable, and ready to entertain.
