5 Simple Ways to Upgrade the Refrigerator You Already Have

Do you long for a fancier fridge? Me, too. But we can make a few simple upgrades and rock what we’ve got!

Is your bulb simply pitiful? You can switch it out for some bright LED lights! You will have an easier time finding what you are looking for on the lower shelves.  photo refrigerator upgrade 5_zpsmbgzfdcb.jpg 2. Right Product Placement

The door of your fridge fluctuates in temperature, which could cause early spoilage. We use DairyPure milk in our home (Learn more about DairyPure ), so we want to treat it as well as it treats us. We also want it to not go bad early. So DairyPure milk gets top billing.  photo refrigerator upgrade 4_zps3txpitjp.jpg 3. Add Practical Design Elements

I added this shelf liner to the door area to make clean up easy and to help keep everything from sliding around. It’s functional AND cute!  photo refrigerator upgrade 6_zps9kdwxgvj.jpg  4. Keep the Meat Neat

I LOVE using a small cookie sheet (with raised edges) to hold meat. This catches those juices and contains what needs disinfecting.  photo refrigerator upgrade 2_zps2uflnobv.jpg
5. Keep It Cool

Refrigerators use coils for cooling. They get dirty and need to be cleaned roughly twice a year (dirty coils = less efficient refrigerator, and eventually, a dead refrigerator). The cleaning process is quick and didn’t require me to look like this guy, so that’s a win. This is the coil brush for the job.
