Buyer & Seller Tips
Published by Natalie Boyle, REALTOR®, Founder of Verso Homes (DRE #01329012)
We are sharing a fun DIY project! My good friend Bethany with The Posh Home has amazing design style and taste! I asked for her help to highlight my modern style in my traditional kitchen without breaking the bank. Bethany suggested an easy way to achieve a fresh modern look on a budget: update the kitchen hardware.
Once Bethany selected the new modern hardware for my kitchen, we decided it would be fun to DIY the project. This is an easy project that anyone can do with some essential tools. Wait until you see the before and after below! The new hardware Bethany selected made such an impact. We’re excited to share this Kitchen Hardware DIY Project with you.
Emtek kindly gifted the hardware; however, all opinions are our own.
Center the pull or knob in both directions.
For drawers 22” and up, double up on knobs or pulls. Divide the drawer into thirds and position hardware on left and right sides.
Place hardware centered on the lower frame of the door starting above the inset.
We hope you enjoyed this Kitchen Hardware DIY Project: How To Update Your Traditional Kitchen Cabinets With a Modern Twist on a budget.
