Anyone else seen this done before, i do you think it will look good?

Answer 1

I think it would look great - these handles are very modern and chic. Changing the knobs is a great way to update the kitchen without the expense of replacing all the cabinets - and you can express your personal style by choosing the handles you like!

If you are replacing more traditional handles, you may have to fill the original holes - which may mean painting the whole door front to cover the fill. We painted our ageing oak cabinets three years ago with an oil-based Benjamin Moore paint, and they still look fresh with no chips or scratches.

If you are still unsure, why not bring home one of the handles you like, and see how it looks in your kitchen. You can add accessories to match - such as stainless steel appliances (kettle & toaster, if the budget doesn't stretch to replacing large appliances).

As of right now he is extremely scared. I suggest leaving him for a bit-not totally, but there is sure to be noises right now and people walking around, so maybe put some vegetables (NOT: Iceburg lettuce, avacado, raw corn, cabbage, or anything with pesticides or near rotting) near the entrance, and see if he eats some in a little while. Hopefully, after he has calmed down, he can get close enough to the one exit from the crawl space for you to grab him. It may take a while for him to get out because rabbits do like burrows. Rabbits generally don't like water. If it is an area where that would be a problem to use water (because of rental), then don't use this approach. Otherwise, if there is another entrance to the crawl space, or if you make one, put some water through the other hole, and he should be flushed out if there is nothing by the other hole (humans, shadows, cats, or anything). Hopefully you can get him out! If you do, injuries should also be tended to right away. :)

You can do whatever you want. The style of the handle however should coordinate with the style of your kitchen, country, contemporary, etc. We are building a new home and the trend now is to do handles for drawers and knobs for doors but as you can see from your site, you can do whatever suits you.
