feature friday: hardware fail, and chaise reveal

So, they're going back. <i>For those of you who are a bit lost about what I am referring to... <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2010/10/cabinet-hardware-help.html">HERE</a> is the previous post concerning kitchen hardware.</i> I like them- but they're just not working with my cabinets. I apologize for the quality of these photos, but I was in a bit of a hurry- and now I am ready to ship these babies back. I have already ordered new samples from Home Depot, so I will update you in 5-7 business days! Also, I think I have decided that the Anthropologie knobs are just too over the top for my budget in the kitchen. <i>(by the end of this kitchen overhaul, if I have Anthro hardware... don't judge me!

cabinet hardware help!

Hello Abode Lovers! So- remember when I had to explain to all of you that the <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2010/10/wednesday-catch-all.html">kitchen re-do</a> has been put on hold until I can call dibbs on Colonel Dad? Well... I have bypassed this hurdle and have still managed to make a <i>little</i> headway in the kitchen.<i> I ORDERED NEW HARDWARE!!!</i> I really thought that hardware would be something for the future because of the cost... my total came to $421.95 for the original Anthropolgie pulls and knobs that I had chosen... I mean, wow. I know they are like jewelry for the kitchen (and jewelry is important, very, very important), but I really didn't want to spend that much, at all. So- I am trying something else in <i>hopes</i> that it will be just as fabulous as my original, more expensive pick from Anthro. If I decide I don't like them as much- then I will simply send them back... but my fingers are crossed. I was able to get <i>ALL</i> of the hardware for just over $150.00 with shipping! That is huge! <i>(just think of how many pillows and lampshades I would buy with that small fortune!)</i><br /><i><br /></i><br />I would love to hear honest opinions on this matter- I will of course take photos when I get them... but what is your reaction, right out of the gate? I am very curious!<br /><i><br /></i><br /><i><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=77423&catId=HOME-HARDWARE-KNOBS&pushId=HOME-HARDWARE-KNOBS&popId=HOME-HARDWARE&sortProperties=&navCount=45&navAction=middle&fromCategoryPage=true&selectedProductSize=&selectedProductSize1=&color=lin&templateType=D&subCategoryId=">original picks (expensive picks!)</a></i><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiovIKb1NEGv-gnQqlMaAQnPTND3ZL41qdC63D0gmFnMw2wa3_fspfU55p39iWsAZ_QpXQYYm0e72lCNEJlyVvsTn_BI0YwmfGS-wdUfjUn44hFhzNVNbCnh_U60ck_RPGXA-Kji40NWPNb/s1600/973037_012_b.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiovIKb1NEGv-gnQqlMaAQnPTND3ZL41qdC63D0gmFnMw2wa3_fspfU55p39iWsAZ_QpXQYYm0e72lCNEJlyVvsTn_BI0YwmfGS-wdUfjUn44hFhzNVNbCnh_U60ck_RPGXA-Kji40NWPNb/s320/973037_012_b.jpeg" width="214" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgja4qQHxam6_qnFdtg1aR0b6ETf6jSXU9wJ8FfGhYyvMzslP968qM4vtu133vHW5Dz04acHREjNxz8IpEZa8KCFK27Ag5YssSr0VCL4ErbUvxTrsttGBWI8Lu2XS4bpk4b4sdqjBE6rjli/s1600/974227_012_m.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgja4qQHxam6_qnFdtg1aR0b6ETf6jSXU9wJ8FfGhYyvMzslP968qM4vtu133vHW5Dz04acHREjNxz8IpEZa8KCFK27Ag5YssSr0VCL4ErbUvxTrsttGBWI8Lu2XS4bpk4b4sdqjBE6rjli/s320/974227_012_m.jpeg" width="214" /></a></div><i><br /></i><br /><i><br /></i><br />and<i> THESE </i>are what I ordered!
