Do you have polished nickel hardware with brushed nickel faucet?
Comments (7)I took some pics of the three pulls I am mainly considering. One is in PN b/c that is all they had and the other two are brushed nickel. After looking at them, I think I might be ok with the brushed nickel. Here are all three. Bottom is obviously the polished one. It is the one I thought I would like the best too, until I got them all installed (this is in my current mudroom, not future kitchen--cabinets aren't installed yet). The top is Jeff Alexander Belcastel, second is a Hickory pull that looks very similar to JA Bremen and last is JA Tiffany. I think I like Belcastel! I thought I might avoid the squarer look b/c my pendants are rounded, but I think it is my favorite. Here is a view of the two I like the best. Would love opinions....See Morebrushed nickel or satin nickel?
Comments (5)Armchair shopper.... yea, I’ve been hearing gold is coming back... been hearing that for two years now but really don’t see it! I feel even if it is, it will be short lived. I have polished chrom and brushed nickel fixtures throughout my home - only makes sense to change hinges and knobs. Also, I’ve had these knobs for 25 years - ready for a change...See MoreBrushed nickel vs Satin Nickel
Comments (3)Personally, I prefer fixtures & hardware be in the same color "family". For example, brushed/sating nickel (very little, if any, difference) in the "silver" family -- pewter, iron, etc. Brass with "yellows". I have both brushed & satin nickel fixtures and door hardware in my kitchen (along with antique iron cabinet hardware) and you cannot tell the difference b/w the brushed and satin. In some cases, I think it's just the name a particular manufacturer uses. There is no yellow in any of my nickel hardware or fixtures....See Moremixing polished nickel, chrome and brushed nickel?
Comments (5)The idea that all metal finishes in your house need to match is extremely dated and when it’s done tends to look a little pedestrian. You don’t pick one fabric and insist it be used everywhere, same with flooring and wall colors. A good rule of thumb is if you can touch the two at the same time then maybe they should be the same, but if you can’t then they don’t have to be. And of course, there are exceptions to every rule except the rule that there are no absolute rules in decorating....See Morebluekitobsessed
