I like to do things myself and save a little money where I can. So when it came time to remodel my kitchen, I figured I&#8217;d save a little coin by buying a bunch of different hardware styles and just mixin&#8217; &#8217;em all together.<\/p>\n<p>Well, let me tell you, it was a hot mess. I had brushed nickel knobs on some cabinets, oil-rubbed bronze pulls on others, and even a couple of crystal knobs thrown in for good measure.<\/p>\n<p>It looked like a damn <a href=\"https:\/\/homedecormastery.com\/should-i-put-hardware-on-my-kitchen-cabinets\/\">hardware store exploded in my kitchen<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But, I&#8217;m not one to give up easily, so I did some research and learned a thing or two about mixing and <a href=\"https:\/\/homedecormastery.com\/does-all-the-hardware-in-a-kitchen-have-to-match\/\">matching kitchen hardware<\/a> styles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So, can you mix <a href=\"https:\/\/homedecormastery.com\/what-color-table-goes-best-with-white-kitchen-cabinets\/\">kitchen hardware colors?<\/a> The short answer is yes, but it takes a little bit of know-how to do it right.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_66_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p

first, you gotta understand that not all hardware styles are created equal. Some are more traditional, some are more modern, and some are just plain ugly (I&#8217;m lookin&#8217; at you, crystal knobs).<\/p>\n<p>But, if you pick the right styles and mix &#8217;em together in the right way, you can create a look that&#8217;s both unique and cohesive.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choosing_Hardware_Styles_to_Mix\"><\/span>Choosing Hardware Styles to Mix<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to choosing hardware styles to mix, you wanna pick styles that have some design elements in common.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;re going for a more traditional look, you might mix and match different finishes of knobs and pulls that have similar design elements, like a cup pull and a bin pull.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re going for a more modern look, you might mix and match different styles of bar pulls in the same finish.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mixing_Finishes\"><\/span>Mixing Finishes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the most important things to consider when mixing hardware styles is the finish. Different finishes can create different looks and can affect the overall cohesive of your kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>For example, mixing a brushed nickel finish with a polished chrome finish can create a cohesive look, but mixing a brushed nickel finish with an oil-rubbed bronze finish can look a little bit odd.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_Balance_and_Harmony\"><\/span>Creating Balance and Harmony<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to mixing and matching kitchen hardware styles, balance and harmony is key.<\/p>\n<p>You wanna make sure that the hardware you choose is balanced in terms of size and style, and that it creates a sense of harmony in your kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;re mixing and matching different styles of knobs, you might want to use the same size knob on all the upper cabinets and a different size knob on all the lower cabinets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_Can_I_mix_and_match_hardware_on_the_same_cabinet\"><\/span>Q: Can I mix and match hardware on the same cabinet?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: Yes, you can mix and match hardware on the same cabinet, but it&#8217;s important to create a sense of balance and harmony.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;re using knobs on the upper cabinets and pulls on the lower cabinets, you might want to choose knobs and pulls that have similar design elements, or use the same finish on both.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_How_many_different_hardware_styles_is_too_many\"><\/span>Q: How many different hardware styles is too many?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: It&#8217;s generally best to stick to 2-3 different hardware styles in a kitchen. Any more than that and it can start to look cluttered and chaotic.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_Can_I_mix_and_match_hardware_in_an_open_concept_kitchen\"><\/span>Q: Can I mix and match hardware in an open concept kitchen?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: Yes, you can mix and match hardware in an open concept kitchen, but it&#8217;s important to create a sense of continuity between the different areas.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;re using different hardware styles in the kitchen and dining areas, you might want to choose hardware styles that complement each other and use similar finishes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span>The Bottom Line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Mixin&#8217; and matchin&#8217; kitchen hardware styles can be a bit tricky, but with a little bit of know-how, you can create a look that&#8217;s both unique and cohesive.<\/p>\n<p>Just remember to choose hardware styles that have some design elements in common, mix finishes that complement each other, and create a sense of balance and harmony in your kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>So go forth and mix that hardware like a boss, just make sure you do it right!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey y&#8217;all, it&#8217;s your boy Joe here and I&#8217;m here to tell y&#8217;all a little story &#8217;bout the time I decided to mix and match my kitchen hardware.
