Where did you buy cabinet hardware? Should finish match faucets?
Comments (2)I can't remember which website I used for hardware, but it was really inexpensive and surprisingly nice. Could have been Knobs4less or Myknobs. I couldn't get some of the plainer knobs I wanted online, went to many stores (specialized bath stores) looking, finally found them at Target of all places. I have brushed nickel faucets and coppery orb light fixtures and pulls. I think the mix looks fine (better than fine, actually)....See MoreMixed hardware finishes for knobs/faucets
Comments (4)Hi, I asked about this a couple months ago when we started our kitchen. My designer told me I needed to have everything (hardware and faucet) match. I rebeled and after seeing so many beautiful kitchens on this site that didn't follow that rule I decided to go w/ what I wanted. I have oil rubbed bronze hardware w/ a stainless steel (brushed nickel) faucet. I think it looks really great. I'm going to post some pics on here soon. As I was advised...go with what you love/want. =)...See MoreFinished mixed cabinets/mixed hardware/two stones kitchen
Comments (25)Dear Johnny Dollar, My kitchen planner/cabinet rep was the one who suggested alder with this stain to soften the redness in the wood.

The softness of the wood was never discussed and this is the first time that I have heard about it. We are almost empty nesters, so this kitchen will not get as much wear and tear as in a family with young kids. So far no gauges or dents or chips. The cabinets were made halfway across the country from where I live, so staining was not done on my premise. The finish on the cabinets looks very even....See MoreMixing colors of door knobs and cabinet hardware
