An Added Touch Of Hardware

*Handle Pulls on lower cabinets BEFORE*

Without being too much of a photo junkie today, I wanted to post a few photos of how our kitchen looks since my husband took off the old dark, country-looking knobs and handles on the cabinets and replaced them with a modern contemporary brushed silver/stainless steel design.

How dark and un-defined this area looks imho.

The new handles bounce the light around the room and brighten up the joint a bit.

If your kitchen looks need a boost and you can't spend thousands of dollars on new cabinets, you may want to consider just changing the hardware to give it an updated look.

One quick note regarding this kitchen hardware:

My husband priced them at Home Depot in the kitchen cabinet department and they were expensive,

so he looked in the hardware department and saved us beaucoup bucks $$ by purchasing them there.

My sister did the same thing on her recent kitchen re-model at Lowes.

Always check for alternatives if you are on a budget.
