Gaudy Chandeliers
These, really. Since a stained glass chandelier screams, “I shop at thrift shops.” That isn’t to suggest that a single tasteful chandelier fixture won’t brighten up your kitchen, but there is a fine line to be drawn here. Unless you have impeccable taste, you can avoid these at all costs. Furthermore, just dusting these items is a huge pain.

Fluorescent Lighting
If you can’t afford to make significant changes to your kitchen, don’t make it worse by illuminating it with obnoxious fluorescent lights. These bulbs have a harsh, clinical feel to them, making you feel like you’re in a morgue, jail, or mobile home. Whether you want the same look or you like opening your eyes to hazardous rays, only making this one change will greatly upgrade your kitchen.
