    If you just want to brighten them up, you can give them a couple coats of chalk paint. It's a really easy brand of paint that doesn't require any sanding or priming. Just make sure to apply a good wax finish to protect it.

    If you don't want to paint, try Murphy's Oil Soap or an Orange Oil cleaner.

      This is what I was going to suggest. You'll be surprised at how they look new again!! They just need a bit of elbow grease & TLC!
