1. Mixing and matching knobs and pulls or even latches can be a great way to update the look of your cabinets and help you create an updated and custom look.
2. Antique brass hardware is the perfect compromise if you’re torn between black or brass. It gives just enough contrast to add interest, but not too much contrast that it feels stark.
3. If you’re updating older cabinets, or just replacing knobs for a quick change, use hardware with a backplate to hide old drill holes, while also adding a level of sophistication to your cabinets
I’m so very sorry for your loss. Do what you have to do to get through it. Sounds like you were blessed with a good one!
I’m so with you on the why didn’t I take care of this sooner if it wasn’t even hard train! The things I can put off can be ridiculous. Love how the dark color grounds the space.
Hugs from here ; I lost my mother in 2022 after an 8 month battle against leukemia. Leukemia won & truly, I felt like I had PTSD after her passing. It wasn’t just THAT she died, but how she died….I’m still mourning, even though I was never really a mama’s girl. Like you, I stay super busy but some things – I feel paralyzed. All to say: I UNDERSTAND. HANG IN THERE, surround yourself with good gal pals. Eat cake! DO WHATEVER IT TAKES! Mostly a, go easy on yourself. We don’t have to be amazing all the time.

Awww Linda, thank you for your kind words. I’m so very sorry to hear about your loss. Staying busy has sefinitley helped me, but it’s in the quiet times that it gets harder. I think we just have to let ourselves go through the motions when that feeling creeps up. I hope you’re doing okay xoxo
