I have another question for the experts, I'm not sure what size door pulls to put on my cabinets. Can I use the 13 9/16" on the longer doors and the 9 5/8" on the shorter doors ? Will that look ok, also on the drawers should I use a door pull or a knob ? Please help, and thank you !!

Hi there! Yes! For sure you can and should mix up the hardware a bit to keep it interesting. Basically I make some 'rules' about what can go where, to help me decide which type of knob or pull for each drawer and door. Here are 2 posts I've written about cabinetry hardware explaining it a bit more.

Hope these help you out a bit!
