Transform Your Kitchen From Drab To Tropical Fab With This Easy Rattan To Cabinet Doors Upgrade

Review: "Absolutely brilliant product! I had several pieces of furniture I wanted to refinish and add caning to but I was so intimidated by authentic caning because it’s so delicate to work with and expensive! I didn’t want to mess it up. This caning is so wonderful to use! Cuts easily and was so easy to work with. I applied it to a mirror for beautiful added interest. It stayed flat and I was able to paint without trouble. So happy this product exists and it has transformed so many of my home pieces!" - Megan
