Mixing drawer front styles???
Comments (11)Thanks, everyone. I think I need to see the actual door and as you indicated rhome - check out the widths of stiles and rails to see how it would translate in a drawers. Proportion is important to me. In our very colonial, not quite shaker, kitchen, I'm not sure there would have been raised panel drawers in the 18th century so am going to do a bit of research and see what I come up with. BTW - I do like it both ways, I think each has its place, just not sure what ours is yet......thanks again for the feedback....See Morebin pulls on 5 piece drawer fronts? any pics?
Comments (2)I put mine on the upper rail, so, not where you have in mind. I didn't want to jam up my fingers trying to open the drawers, but I also just wanted them higher. Oh, and I have four drawer fronts that are glass inside the stiles and rails so those obviously had to go higher. I can take a pic if you want, but I don't think that's what you are after, am I right?!...See MoreDecorative frameless drawer fronts?
Comments (7)That's a thought- I could cut very tiny grooves to give the appearance of stiles and rails. Since they will be brush painted, I can correct the grain orientation with paint. No- no uppers at all, at least not now. With windows on two walls, I only have one wall for uppers, and neither of us like them. For me, they're in my face, and for my wife, she can only reach the bottom shelf. The kitchen is so light and airy; we're already thinking about what kind of artwork we'd like to hang on the non-window wall. Here are the cabinets as they are now. The pulls are antique pulls from type trays....See More3-piece shaker drawer fronts?
Comments (11)great input, thanks. I have a lot of drawers, so with slab I was concerned that it might look kind of unfinished, or like a slab front kitchen. I have both stacks of drawers and drawers on top of cabinet doors. The cab people ensured that the stiles would line up on drawers over doors. You're absolutely right about letting the grain of the walnut shine through uninterrupted. This 3-piece looks either kind of dated or kind of craftsman, which my house is not. It's 1904 and while we're not bending over backwards to preserve, I do like things to look not TOO out of time/place. I'm having the same style but painted in the adjacent dining area, and that might be a different consideration as there won't be the wood grain to show off. On a side note: man, these walnut cab doors are ge-orgeous....See MoreJAN MOYER
