The article discusses how TikToker Rachel Connelly transformed her 1930s rental kitchen without the ability to paint cabinets due to landlord restrictions. She used privacy glass stickers for the cabinet fronts and replaced old knobs with brass ones. The process, costing under $100, allowed them to revamp the laminate counters and beige backsplash with peel-and-stick materials, making the space feel more like home despite initial challenges. Connelly highlights how even small changes can lead to a dramatic improvement.
