In a design world that tells you to paint your wood cabinets or ditch them altogether, we'd like you to reconsider. There are several ways to redeem your wood cabinets and make them work for your desired kitchen aesthetic. From swapping out hardware to dressing them up with a tile backsplash, we've got 10 ways to style wood kitchen cabinetry.
Instead of painting your cabinets a fun bright color, try it out on your backsplash. This vibrant blue tile backsplash livens up these wood cabinets and breathes life into the kitchen.
There are fewer more sophisticated kitchen color schemes than black countertops paired with light wood cabinets. If your current wood cabinets are too dark or have too many red tones to fit this look, sand them down and bleach the wood to dampen the warm glow and achieve a more contemporary aesthetic.
Statement-making stone, like this waterfall marble countertop and backsplash, never looks bad. In fact, it can brighten up and visually upgrade nearly everything it touches, including wood cabinetry.
