Get Rid of Your Oak Cabinets
There are a few different reasons why you should throw out your old oak cabinets. The first one is: they're extremely ugly. The second reason is: they make you look like you're living in an Ikea showroom.
C'mon, Are You Really Even Trying?
If you own a house, you should seriously look into getting custom cabinetry. Avoid oak, and avoid intense, fluorescent overhead lighting. This will make your cabinets look absolutely terrible. Opt for some sort of darker wood or painted wood.
