Natural wood cabinets

Home trends continue to change and will continue to adapt to homeowners’ wants and needs. The kitchen is one of the most popular areas where cabinets are used and natural wood cabinets are coming back in style in 2023.

Rasmussen Custom Cabinets specializes in wood cabinetry and can create a stunning design in any room. Our designers have the skills to make cabinets fit the current or dream design of your home. This blog will discuss what wood looks are trending and how our team can help keep your home aesthetically pleasing and functional.

Natural Warmth In Your Kitchen

The biggest reason that wood is popular in a kitchen is its ability to add natural warmth. Unpainted wood can bring natural elements inside your home and help a space feel more refreshing.

Dark woods can help bring warming effects to your kitchen which is relaxing and in fact, doesn’t weigh down your home. The wood of all color varieties can add a modern flair to your home while still looking timeless.

Bringing The Natural World Inside The Home With Natural Wood Cabinets

Protecting the earth and not taking its natural beauty for granted is important to many younger generations. We are starting to see more natural-style choices inside homes that remind people of the earth or are more sustainable. Wood cabinets are more eco-friendly than synthetic materials so including them in your home is a more cost-effective and greener option.

Standout grain is a popular trend for natural wood cabinets in 2023 where the types of wood with darker grain or that are stained to make the grain more prominent are the top choice. The grain of wood is unique, so many homeowners will opt to show it off to make their space different from anyone else.

Recycled wood is another option to make your home more sustainable while still getting the natural wood look. Recycled wood can last for just as many years as recently made cabinets as well. Choosing recycled options can be cheaper without sacrificing quality.

Popular Types Of Wood

What if you have determined that wood cabinets are for you, but you’re not sure what wood to choose? Rasmussen Custom Cabinetry offers multiple wood options that come in different colors to suit your home. Here are some of the most popular wood options we see for custom cabinets.

Maple

Maple has a fine grain and is usually lighter colored. Using maple will help you get a cohesive look through your space and is very durable for places like kitchens and bathrooms. Natural wood cabinets made of maple will stand up well to temperature and humidity. They are also easy to paint or stain.

Walnut

If you’re looking for a smooth grain, walnut is the wood choice for you. Many walnut cabinets have swirls or wavy lines that make your home look more dimensional. Walnut comes in darker colors like chocolate brown or a redder gray. Putting walnut in your kitchen is a popular choice for wood cabinets.

Alder

Straight grain comes from alder wood. This is a more lightweight hardwood that comes in a lighter color palette and is eco-friendly. Alder has red undertones which makes it a great choice for those wanting to bring more warmth into the space through custom cabinets.

Red Oak

Warmer woods like red oak coordinate well with many different cabinet accessories and other finishes in your home. The grain of red oak can vary between curvy or straight depending on the manufacturer. Since the grain is so prominent, even stained or painted red oak can still show the grain through.

Are Painted Wood Cabinets Also On Trend?

Natural wood is the most popular option for cabinets right now, but light-washed cabinets or stained wood still hold onto some homeowners’ designs. Many of the woods mentioned above can be stained to multiple colors while still showing the wood grain and looking natural.

Any design that looks like natural wood will help your space stay on trend. Rasmussen Custom Cabinetry is happy that natural wood is back in the spotlight. Our team loves working with wood and making durable and visually appealing cabinets. If you are looking to remodel your home to stay on trend, or are currently building a home, our designers can help. Contact our team to get started today!

Bathrooms contain many small items and personal care items that can get cluttered easily. Bathrooms see a lot of use and different activities which can cause them to become messy and daunting to organize. If you have custom bathroom cabinets or even just limited cabinets in your space, make the most of the space you have with these clever organizing tips.

If you have room and the means to add additional cabinets, work with our team at Rasmussen Custom Cabinets to create a seamless design. Our bathroom cabinets can be custom-made to any size or specification to increase storage space and help your bathroom look tidier.

1- Group Items Together

One way to help every item have a place is to group similar items together. Some groups could be, shower items, hair care, makeup, first aid, toilet cleaning, and use, etc. Once you have items grouped, they can be designated in a particular cabinet or drawer.

Grouping items also helps prevent you from misplacing items or small items getting lost in large spaces.

2- Utilize Door Space

Attaching storage to the inside of your cabinet doors is a great way to save actually cabinet space and give you easier access to certain items. Temporary and permanent hardware can both be installed on the inside of bathroom cabinets to hold hair tools or other bottles. This can also be a good place to store cleaning supplies for the bathroom.

Command hooks for rags, attached shelves, or a magnet board on the interior side of the cabinet can hold small items. Utilizing door space gives you more freedom for what the cabinet can be designated for and moves obnoxious or tall items out of the way.

5 Organization Tips For Your Bathroom Cabinets

3- Slide Out Storage Options

Using storage containers or shelving of any kind can help your bathroom cabinets be more organized. Sliding organizers can help your reach items easily and prevents them from getting lost or pushed back into the cupboard.

Sliding storage can be used inside the cabinets or on the counter to keep items in the most convenient place. Many sliding shelves come in narrow or wider options, which can help you avoid plumbing and see all items clearer. Narrow sliding shelves give you the option to have multiple underneath the sink.

4- Turn Tables

Similar to sliding storage, turn tables or lazy susans can help bring past hidden items to the front of your cabinets. Some turn tables have multiple levels, helping you to store even more items in a smaller area. Swivel organization is really popular for bathroom cabinets with clear organizers that are clearly labeled for small items like q-tips, bobby pins, shower steamers, elastics, floss, or toothbrushes.

5- Move Small And Essential Items Up

Items that you use daily such as your toothbrush, toothpaste, moisturizer, floss, medicines, and makeup products, should be kept at eye level. Not only will this help you keep them organized, but you will also be more likely to use them up on their recommended shelf life and never forget to take your meds.

Moving essential items up to the top of your bathroom space makes those products easily accessible and makes more room for other less common items below the sink or in drawers.

“I’m not fixing that,” You say to yourself. “It’s just a bathroom. Who’s going to really care?”

While it may seem like bathrooms don’t matter in the overall scheme of things, they are actually very important to creating the atmosphere you want in your home. Bathrooms can be places of relaxation if you know how to use and design it to its fullest potential. In this article, we provide 4 different bathroom ideas that can help you upgrade your bathroom. The tips that we provide can greatly help change the functionality and feel of your bathroom.

Bathrooms Are Important

According to Forbes, one of the leading magazines and websites in business and culture, two spaces that buyers tend to analyze are the kitchen and the master bathroom. The bathroom can add to your:

Property value
Home’s environment
Home’s appeal
Home’s functionality

When your home’s bathroom lacks amenities and is visually unappealing, it can be difficult to enjoy. It can also be difficult to enhance its value and appeal.

4 Bathroom Ideas That Can Change Your Home

Knowing that bathrooms can make or break your home’s image and environment, here are 4 ideas that you can use in your bathroom.

1. Add a medicine cabinet to your bathroom for a modern twist to a traditional concept

Medicine cabinets are no longer considered “old” and traditional. Instead, nowadays, they’re seen as enhancing the bathroom. For example, a medicine cabinet is a discrete way of adding more storage space to this area of your home. Think about it: with medicine cabinets that have dual functions like a mirror and storage area, you not only have storage space, but you’re also adding to the bathroom’s overall function and appeal. Likewise, medicine cabinets that stand over the toilet minimize the cluckiness of having things like hangers and racks everywhere. These hangers and racks also tend to fall down and move around with the slightest touch. Not to mention, they’re also visually unappealing.

2. Use warm colors

Using warm colors can be very helpful to creating a relaxing and appealing bathroom. Warm colors can range from bold neutral colors to wood-stains on cabinets that emphasize a homey and natural feel.

Warm colors are inviting, friendly, and are also in style for 2021. Using colors that are popular can give your home an updated and remodeled look. Using warm colors is also a cost-effective way of enhancing your home’s image.

3. Use paint that will last

Traditional paint colors and materials often don’t add to how clean your bathroom is. With the rise in different paints and paint material, it’s possible to make the paint in your bathroom last longer. If you’re a homeowner, you know how quickly moisture, grime and dirt can decrease the appeal and cleanliness of your bathroom.

By having knowledge of paints and stains that last longer, you help save yourself some money. You save the cost of having to repaint often and also of having to clean areas that are already clean and well-maintained. If your paint looks old and faded, your bathroom will constantly look like it is unkept.

4. Create a spa-like environment

The point in having a beautiful and discrete storage area like a medicine cabinet, as well as using warm colors and durable paint is to create a spa-like environment in your home. Think about why spas are so popular: they cater to your need for space, privacy, beauty and functionality.

Using the tips that we provided above, you can create an oasis in your home that draws on your need for both practicality and comfort. Your home, and your bathroom specifically, should be a place where you can feel relaxed and happy.
