Easy Upgrade: Faucet
"A new faucet can make an elegant design statement for not much money," says Miller, who recommends eFaucets.com and Home Depot for inexpensive options. When shopping for your replacement, consider what will fit your countertop; bridge faucets (the style shown here) can require two holes in the countertop instead of the usual three.
