Poplar

Poplar is a versatile domestic hardwood prized for its smooth texture, straight grain, and exceptional workability. Naturally light in color, it ranges from creamy white to pale yellow, often with subtle green, gray, or brown mineral streaks that give each board quiet character.
Poplar machines cleanly, sands easily, and accepts paint extremely well, making it a go-to choice for painted cabinetry, interior millwork, shelving, and furniture components. While softer than many hardwoods, its stability and affordability make it a reliable material for both shop projects and finish work.
Common uses include:
Painted cabinets and built-ins
Interior trim and millwork
Shelving and furniture parts
Shop jigs, fixtures, and secondary components
Color and grain vary by board; mineral streaking is a natural characteristic of Poplar.
