Re: show me your knobs

so do you put knobs on drawers, or drawer pulls on drawers (i know this question sounds so dumb). can you put drawer pulls (those handly looking things, not knobs) on drawers and cabinet doors?

i have both, knobs and handles... how would one arrange them to make "sense" out of it?

Re: show me your knobs

If there were no prior holes in the drawers/cabinets, I would get handles. If there are prior holes in the doors, then I would do a knob for drawers and handles for cabinets. It depends upon how traditional/modern you are and what your kitchen looks like. What finish is your sink faucet? I would use the same finish so that it flows together. I am looking for new kitchen cabinet/drawer hard wear myself.

It's your home, what do you want? Because you can really go either way with this. Some people do all pulls, some all knobs and some are mixed. What do you want?

nice, thank you, do you have any tiny drawers (nine inches), i have two and think the pulls would be too big... also those smaller cabinets above microwave... i thought i'd do the knobs on there, and then pulls everywhere else?

OH - what about the corner cabinet (on the floor) do you have anything on there?

if you are going to do pulls on the doors then I would do pulls even on the little ones about the micro and then maybe do something different on the drawers.....IMO keep the doors consistent but it really is a personal preference.

I have the stainless bar pulls on everything (drawers and doors) and just used different sizes depending on the size of door or drawer.

Re: show me your knobs

We have knobs on our drawers and little cabinets and pulls on the full sized cabinets

(please excuse the one pull that is off on the base, DH figured that since that ONE cabinet didnt have a drawer above it, that the pull should be the same amount of space down from the top of the cabinet as the others instead of LINING UP with the other pulls. Drives me NUTS every.single.time. I look at this picture.)

the picture worked at first...here is the link

I have smaller cabinets over my frige and we have pulls on those too. no small drawers.

on my corner cabinet, I have a pull, since I have to open the door to get to the lazy susan. if you just have to push the cabinet and the lazy susan spins - I might not put one on that. i guess I would have to hold it in place and see how it looked.
