I have an irregular sized (35 inch) cabinet in my bathroom that's "built in". Rather than try to remove it, is there a way to cover or paint the existing front and doors to make them resemble oak? The current wood is a cheap laminate of darkish wood (the same cheap laminate was used in about every house in the neighborhood, I've noticed). It's not actually a cabinet, just a front and two doors, and I'd rather not try to remove them as I'm not that good at woodworking! Thanks for any suggestions.
