Roxanne,
Oh, so many of us are struggling with that right now. I have an heavy wooden too.
There are so many things you can do. If you want a change but really prefer to keep the wood showing, take out the shelves and put in some pretty wallpaper, then add lights at the top if there are no lights. This will make a big difference. Once you put the shelves back in, don't put too much back into the cabinet. In fact, you might want to put in only a few pieces so the wallpaper will show.
If you want it completely different, the sky is the limit!
Here is a link of all sorts of redos!!! Post photos once you have finished your cabinet "rebirth!"
