The properties of different wood types can vary, so do your homework to make sure you spot any furniture’s durability and quality before you buy it.

Whether it’s applying the finishing touches to a complete revamp or prettying up the existing items when considering bathroom wall cabinets, white is always a safe bet if you like to regularly update your accessories to give a new angle on your style.

One can also opt for plywood and particle board/chipboard which are both less expensive than solid wood. Particleboard is a wood product made of wood by-products such as ships, shavings, and sawdust.
