There was a near 40 percent increase in people looking to remodel their kitchens and bathrooms during COVID-19. With people staying at home more and not spending as much money going out to restaurants and shopping centers like El Paseo, more and more people are wanting to remodel their kitchens.

Remodeling any kitchen or bathroom starts with upgrading the cabinets. There are many different types, including shaker cabinets, wooden cabinets, glass-paneled cabinets, and more.

But how do you choose? We will give you the rundown on why you should choose shaker cabinets and how come they are so popular.

You may be asking what are shaker cabinets? Are they modern or traditional? Would they work in a Palm Desert home?

Shaker cabinets are a flat-paneled door with a slightly recessed center. Shaker cabinets are one of the most versatile styles of cabinets. They work with nearly every type of design scheme, color palette, and style of home because of their simplicity.

Depending on your personal design tastes, they can easily adapt to fit into a modern design or lean toward looking more traditional. It all depends on the hardware and color paint that you choose.

White shaker cabinets can look very clean and modern with a farmhouse twist. White shaker cabinets also look great in laundry rooms and bathrooms. This also helps keep all of your cabinets to have the same clean look and feel.

Darker wooden shaker cabinets can help make your kitchen look more traditional. You can go for more adventurous colors like blue, dark green, and gray if you want to shake your style up.

Shaker cabinets are usually very good quality and are made of wood. If you are getting custom or semi-custom-made shaker cabinets, you want to make sure that you work with an experienced cabinetry specialist who won’t skimp out on high-quality wood.

Reading reviews and testimonials of former customers can help you make your decision of choosing a good cabinet company.

Because shaker cabinets are so minimalistic and simple, you can really make them pop by choosing the best-looking hardware for them. Choosing long horizontal handles is a popular choice.

This helps create a more modern space in your Palm Desert kitchen, bathroom, or a laundry room.

Circular knobs are a good choice if you are looking for a more traditional style.

Shaker cabinets can be a beautiful refresh for your kitchen and home. They are a stylish type of cabinet that adds a touch of traditional elegance mixed with a modern flair.
