In Cleveland, we're seeing a continued appreciation for classic Shaker-style cabinets, often in painted finishes like deep blues or greens. Slab doors are also gaining popularity for a more contemporary look. Two-tone kitchens, mixing cabinet colors or materials, are another emerging trend.
To keep your butcher block looking its best in Ohio's climate, ensure it's properly sealed and promptly wipe up any spills. Avoid placing hot items directly on the wood and always use cutting boards. Regular oiling with food-grade mineral oil will help protect it from moisture and maintain its natural beauty.
