For our budget conscious DIY project people, what could be better than being on-budget and on-trend? Almost nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, sparkle <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops\/laminate-kitchen-worktops.html\">laminate worktops<\/a> <\/strong>are easy to install and are available at a range of price points, so you\u2019ll always find something that fits perfectly within your budget. If you are looking to update or refresh an existing kitchen, a sparkle worktop is a great place to start! Many of the new styles come in colours and designs similar to natural stone which will match with existing wooden cabinets no matter what century they are from!<\/p>\n<h2>Brightens dark kitchens<\/h2>\n<p>If you have a dark kitchen with few windows, limited lighting, or have a kitchen where space is at a premium\u2014 have you thought about adding a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops\/laminate-kitchen-worktops.html\">sparkle worktop<\/a><\/strong>? The reflective sparkles will help make it the focal point of the kitchen and draw the eye to it!<\/p>\n<p>Plus the sparkles will help reflect any light in the room to brighten it. If a simple sparkle worktop isn\u2019t enough \u2014 you could always opt for the high-gloss version to increase the movement of light in the space!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"img-responsive alignnone wp-image-146 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bright-and-beautiful-sparkle-worktops-make-your-contemporary-kitchen-shine.jpg\" alt=\"Bright and beautiful sparkle worktops make your contemporary kitchen shine\" width=\"730\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bright-and-beautiful-sparkle-worktops-make-your-contemporary-kitchen-shine.jpg 730w, https:\/\/savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bright-and-beautiful-sparkle-worktops-make-your-contemporary-kitchen-shine-300x123.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Enhances natural light<\/h3>\n<p>Enhancing natural light is a key factor that professional designers take into account when creating and designing new kitchens, which makes it a useful consideration for you as a homeowner, too.<\/p>\n<p>This is is another reason why sparkle worktops are so popular &#8211; they\u2019re fantastic at enhancing natural light, as the eye-catching sparkles will help reflect light throughout the kitchen. Perhaps the best part about having a sparkle worktop is when the sun comes through the window and shines on it! And the kitchen seems to glow!<\/p>\n<h3>Complements bold colours<\/h3>\n<p>Amongst two of 2019\u2019s most kitchen design trends are muted colour palettes with pops of colour, as well as extremely bold cabinet colours \u2014 either dark or bright.<\/p>\n<p>Now, finding a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops\/laminate-kitchen-worktops.html\">kitchen worktop<\/a><\/strong> to balance and not overpower the colour scheme can be tough. Most sparkle worktops come in very muted colours like white, black, sand, and grey. This is to help give them a large appeal for a wide variety of kitchen designs either contemporary or modern.<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re thinking about a natural stone worktop like marble, we stock several varieties of sparkle worktops whose beautiful finish is very similar to quartz, giving all the brilliant appearance of natural stone but at a fraction of the cost.<\/p>\n<h3>Great for entertaining<\/h3>\n<p>As summer starts ramping up you may want to consider a new worktop if you will be hosting parties, receptions, or hangouts at your house.<\/p>\n<p>Sparkle <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops\/laminate-kitchen-worktops.html\">laminate worktops<\/a><\/strong> are a fantastic replacement if you are entertaining because they look high-end, are easy to clean and are very durable meaning they are resistant to scratches, water and heat to give you peace of mind about the general wear and tear. Plus, if a bit of wine is spilled on the counter it won\u2019t ruin the laminate top, whereas it can ruin stone worktops if left to sit too long.<\/p>\n<p>If you need help or advice, or help in matching your worktops to your cabinets take a picture on your phone and come on down to one of Savoy Timber\u2019s three stores in Preston, Blackpool and Wigan.
