Sarah, If you have museum putty, you can try that to hold the pulls in place too. Or cut squares of cardboard the appropriate colour- or at least put carpet underneath, in case they fall off! In your case, cuz you have one single drawer above, I'd go with single pulls. That's assuming you have very good quality glides like Blum. I have single pulls on 36" wide pots and pans drawers- like you I knew I'd only be opening them with one hand. I actually prefer the look of two pulls and with Blum glides, I don't think it would hurt to pull the drawers open just on one side- but there was miscommunication between DH and I, and before I blinked, he had installed one handle in the middle! So, functionally, with good glides, it doesn't matter. It's your choice as to which look you prefer. I noted that on all my 'furniture', the drawers have two pulls - though they are antiques with wooden glides, so that may be why.

Hi Jen! I vote for one. I like your cabinet configuration there--very clever. Can we take a peek inside? What color cabs did you get BTW? I haven't ordered mine yet (surprise, surprise) because I am now trying to decide if I want THEM to paint them, instead of me. I have to stop procrastinating at some point and pull the darned trigger! Can't wait to see you pics!

Sorry for the unintentional mystery everyone! I have been clearing my counters and taking pictures to try to be helpful on several threads on GW and got tired of it, so I figured what the heck, I'm actually living here, right! Anyway, my marble island is in it's 12 month of use and was etched practically on day one, and weekly since then. After my daughter shook the Tropicana OJ jug (the one that USED to be 64 oz that they redesigned with a fancy flip lid that isn't easy for kids to get to fully close) and OJ flew all over the island, I gave up with babying and use it almost without care. Cheeseburgers were on the menu last night. Anyway, you who guessed cheese are right; it is grated cheddar. The plate is one of Villeroy & Boch "Design Naif" patter. There actually isn't anything on it but the painted scene. This pattern is actually a quaint set of six different scenes on each plate. I'll show you a pic with all 6 scenes to satisfy any curiosity. On the black meat tray is some unused raw burger meat that I ended up making my dogs do tricks for after dinner. There are a couple knives and, yes, a tape measure since I was getting info to answer someone's question about the dimensions of something on my island. To the right you see some thin slices of bread that I threw out. I used Zomick's challah rolls for our burger buns and they are a bit high. To make them easier for my son to eat a burger in, and to make them slightly less carb-ful for myself and husband, I sliced out the middle. To the right of that is what's left of a large, delicious tomoato that I made a sliced tom/mozz/basil salad with. I know, horrifying that a cut tomato would be on my marble. However, we're planning to have the island honed this summer due to all the etching it has received, so it sort of doesn't matter too much. Sorry for the hijacking this thread!!!! OP - a couple of things. First, RH often has sales. If you can wait it will be well worth it! Second, buy MANY more pieces of hardware than you think you will need. Lucky for me that there is a RH store near me bc I kept having to go back, at least 5 times, to get more. I counted with my installer, three times, before shopping and bought one extra of each. Some went missing, some were defective, a few were the wrong finish and labled wrong - stuff happens. The good thing about RH is that they have a wonderful return policy. The bad thing about possibly less expensive other retailers, especially online retailers, is that they may only give store credit or may charge a restocking fee, plus online you have to pay shipping to make a return. Also, buy a sample of whatever you are leaning toward before committing fully. Sometimes what you see and what you hold and feel are two different things. Last, yes RH was a bit expensive, although I saw much more expensive as well. But, they had the variety of sizes I wanted and they feel wonderful and are very well made. FWIW, I found some bin pulls on ebay that worked fine for a mudroom bench we made. Up close they are relatively a bit cheap looking, but they are functional and look fine from a distance. Best of luck to you!!! Feel free to ask any questions if I can be helpful! Time for me to payback GW for all the amazing help I found here!

I researched this recently. It seems most people think below 30", use one pull. Above 30", use two or one extra wide one. The downside of two vs. one extra wide is that you need two hands to open a drawer with two pulls, and usually one hand is already occupied whatever you are intending to put in the drawer. All my drawers are 30", which put me right on the cusp, and nobody seemed to talk about how to decide in that case. I read some guy on a woodworking forum saying modern drawer slides are so good that mechanically, you don't actually need two pulls or an extra wide pull on a 30" drawer - it's just that people tend to prefer that aesthetically. So I did some experiments pulling my 30" drawers open with one finger in the center or pulling on a centered piece of tape, and he was absolutely right. They roll beautifully. (I have Blum hardware, for reference.) As it happened, I found knobs I like, but not pulls, so I am just doing the same one knob on everything - doors and drawers.
