Cabinet Cleaning

This isn't the most exciting update, but I still thought I would share it. My kitchen cabinets used to always have spots on them and I would just use a microfiber cloth and water to try and get rid of them, but the cabinets would still look streaky and sad. I googled "green cabinet cleaner" and found the following recipe on a few different sites:

1/4 cup white vinegar
1/2 tsp. olive oil

I took 2 microfiber cloths and used one to apply the cleaner and one to buff the cabinets dry.

Here's what the cabinets were looking like before.







Not really sure what that is...

Getting ready to mix up the solution!


And the after








I love the way this makes my cabinets look. The vinegar cleans and the olive oil shines up the cabinets really nicely!

This is exciting to me!! They look SO good in the after. I have yucky old oak cabinets, I might try it on them to see if it helps! Yours look gorgeous!

That's a really good tip! Who would have thought you could get something so clean with 2 ingredients?

If this nesting continues, I can totally see myself trying this out. I'm wondering if it would work as well on painted cabinets...

Still love your kitchen!
