For many households, the kitchen is more than a place to prepare food—it’s a gathering spot where conversations happen, meals are shared, and memories are made. Over time, however, kitchen cabinets can accumulate a sticky layer that ordinary wiping doesn’t remove. This residue is usually a mix of cooking oils, airborne particles, and everyday dust that settles on surfaces, especially near stoves, range hoods, and frequently touched handles.
The good news is that refreshing your cabinets doesn’t require specialized products or expensive supplies. Start by gathering everyday items such as white vinegar, mild dish soap, baking soda, warm water, microfiber cloths, and a soft-bristled brush. Combine equal parts warm water and vinegar, then add a small amount of dish soap to create a gentle cleaning solution.
