IMHO it will look silly. Splurge on some knobs or pulls you like.

I agree they'd look funny sideways (unless they were very clean styled and the kitchen was similarly clean and modern), but what about right side up on doors? I'd like to see some pictures of that!

Hmm... yeah, I suppose it might look really weird, haha.

Right side up on doors sound interesting.. would you put them centered but towards the top??

Yeah I would center up high. Wait. That might be weird too. I mean it LOOKS fine--you see it on trash pullouts all the time--but would it drive you crazy? I do know recently I saw a kitchen here with big bar pulls across everything, including the bottom of the uppers and the owner said it wasn't a big deal opening things.

But.

If you have a sort of old fashioned or just eclectic kitchen, instead of standard authentic cup pulls, I think you could get away with wild 'n crazy cup pulls turned sideways because nobody would expect them right side up (or anywhere). Like this: would it look that odd sideways?

Yeah....probably....and you want the look of cup pulls, not cup pulls that look like something else.

I was wondering this, too. I don't see why it wouldn't look cute. . .
