Opinions on cabinet knobs / pulls / handles
Comments (9)Your kitchen is similar to the one we are ripping out (and the only reason being is the cabinets are not functional and they are literally falling apart). But I even have the same knobs as you in my existing kitchen. I love the look of them but I like the pulls you have in the first pic a lot more. You could do the pulls on the drawers and the knobs on the doors. I've seen hardware mixed like that before and I like the look. I will say this, at 5'4" tall, my belt loops ALWAYS get caught on the drawer knobs in my kitchen (honest! at least twice a day this happens!). When it comes time to pick out hardware for our new cabinets I'm getting pulls to avoid that. My opinion may be biased because of that little tidbit, but I still think the pulls give it just enough punch without taking away from the look of the cabinet....See MoreKnobs or handles on new kitchen doors? What color?
Comments (2)I have white cabs and the doors have black knobs, but the drawers have the vintage-looking reach-under type handle, in black also. I can't think what they're called, but usually referred to as vintage. You should go over to the 'Gallery' and check out the cabs with handles/knobs....See MoreShaker Cabinet pulls or knobs?!?
Comments (11)Yes, there are tons of options that look good with shaker cabinets. Depends on what you like and what feel you're looking for. Maybe share pics of your space as well as inspiration pics and ideas you're considering? I decided to do pulls on drawers and most doors, with some latches for less-used cabinets (looks nice but not super practical)....See MoreHelp! Knobs or handles for flat panel and shaker kitchen?
Comments (9)I have much the same.... a combination of shaker and flat, although my kitchen is all white. I did pulls on everything and love the look. All of my pulls are horizontal as in the picture you posted, and my tall cabinets (fridge /freezer/ pantry) have 12" vertical pulls. As your picture shows, my pulls are not huge. In fact, I think some of mine are smaller than the ones shown (although I love the look you show as well!)...See Morewilltv
