The handles look great and made a big difference! What a great idea to have a template! I just hung up new curtains and the curtain rod came with a template. It was easy to drill holes with it. Anyways your kitchen cabinets look great! A suggestion; put 1 or 2 fake plants on the top of the cabinets for added decoration! Also, the color of the cabinets is nice. A dark wood color or a color like grey would look good, but you don't see cabinets like yours too often. It's a nice kitchen and looks like a nice home!👊😊👍

I did the same thing to my cabinets, but mine need to be painted but I did that in my previous house and it isn't for the weak of heart. I also, changed out all the door hardware, outlet and light switch covers just to help elevate the look. Also, all the light fixtures are being replaced one by one. Hugs to Gridley ;)

Bring home the paint swatches, and lay them on the counter to see what blends well. Smallish kitchen, so go lighter, esp because appliances are already dark. Hope this helps ya :)

Love what you did! Great idea coordinating the color and style of the handles to the major appliances! Your countertops and backsplash are so pretty. Nice how there are lighter colors while gracefully including the darker shades. Hope you don't feel this is pushy, but had an idea while watching the video. A bamboo roll up shade for the window. There is a huge variety, my favorite being the Levolors at Lowes. Pricey, but it's only one window and can really give a finished, cohesive look to the kitchen. There are different shades, too. I used them in my house in Ocala and my son has them all over his Craftsman style home in California.

Looks great! You did that correctly. One tip. Be careful around the lower cabinet doors if you wear cargo pants or other types of pants that might have loops or anything that sticks out. The loops can get caught on the extension on those style pulls. It happened to my husband all the time at his parents home. Even knobs can do that if they're on a lower cabinet. We have some lower cabinets with knobs at our house and he gets caught sometimes and has to be careful not to rip his pants. On our drawers though, we have cup style pulls such can't catch. Thank you for sharing.

Dood you need more decor on top of those cabinets lol.Hardware makes a huge difference, I couldn’t believe it when I did mine. Almost not worth painting/staining them because styles change so fast. You stain them and then light comes back in style two years later. Lol. (I had to paint mine. They were solid wood from the 70’s and I wanted to restore them. They were destroyed by dog/human damage) Some decor on top will “distract” the eye, you’d be surprised. Start scoping out Michaels for clearance artificial greens. Only buy the good stuff. If it’s cheap it will look terrible.
