Most people compartmentalize the places where a dyed wood veneer can fit into your home. Most people view them as a desk or other furniture item, and that most everything else should be made of a different material. However, things other than furniture pieces can feature a dyed wood veneer and can add a lot of style to your home. Here are a few places that can feature a dyed wood veneer that you may not expect.

1. Lighting Fixtures: Due to the thinness of dyed wood veneers, a light fixture will not be weighed down too much by a wood veneer or have light be blocked too heavily. Dyed wood veneers allow a light fixture to look natural and wooden, while also being a color as well.
2. Cars: Some luxury cars include dyed wood veneers across the dash or doors. While station wagons used to feature them on the outside, modern cars can feature a dyed wood veneer on the inside to add some excitement to the materials quality.
3. Cabinets: Many cabinets have wood veneers already, but a dyed wood veneer allows for more exciting cabinets, while still having the natural wood grain.
4. Wall Panels: Wood paneled walls are a very cool design statement but can be expensive or log-cabin-esque. A dyed wood veneer can help make the walls have some interesting color while also looking like they are made of wood, and since wood veneer is inexpensive it would not cost a fortune.

Dyed wood veneers are a great and diverse option because they can add a lot of color and style to your home while still having the classy real wood look and feel.
