HomeStyle: Giving cabinets a facelift

Cabinets occupy more space and do more to set the tone for your decor than any other element in the kitchen. But, years of cooking residue and everyday wear and tear can leave them looking tired and worn out, and the door and hardware styles used when the house was built may not fit with your current sense of style.

That’s how Tamara Robinson of North Little Rock feels. She doesn’t know where she wants to begin to update the cabinets in her 1989 ranch-style house. “It’s bewildering to me,” she says. Her kitchen has Tuscan yellow walls, brown oak cabinets and brown Mission-style dining furniture. “I want to say I like the yellow walls, but, it’s so hard to get over that contrast. It just makes the kitchen look dated,” she adds.

Fortunately, Robinson has many options to update her cabinets without having to start from scratch. See tomorrow’s HomeStyle to learn more.
