Cabinet knobs, drawer pulls, and one oopsie
Friday’s exciting addition was all of the cabinet and drawer hardware. We got simple brushed nickel knobs for the cabinets and cup handles for the drawers. I think they look great.

Same thing on the pantry
However, we did have one setback. The big wooden enclosure for the vent fan has two doors on the front for access to the blower, but they are not cabinet doors and we didn’t want to have knobs installed on them. That got lost in communication, so now we have them.
Knobs on non-cabinets
The unfortunate thing about this mistake is that it’s permanent - we can’t just take the knobs off, because there will be holes right in the front of one of the focal points of the room. I already contacted Kitchen Interiors and we’re going to have the two panels re-made by Plain & Fancy. Who knows how long that will take, but at least we can fix it.
Also Friday, I went over to the Matrix Stone workshop to go over layout of the template on the slab and decide on edge details for the countertop. They’re cutting it this weekend and will install it early next week. That is very exciting! After the countertop and sink are in, we’re a little bit of plumbing and electrical work away from a functional kitchen.
I think it would be super sneaky to put in a secret compartment behind your non-cabinets after you get the knobs off and the panels replaced. Ah, irony…..
