Life, Styled
While cabinets tend to be the focal point of the main spaces, such as kitchens and bathrooms, it is the details that add the final touch to the design. The selection process can be one of the highlights of the design phase, but it can also be overwhelming with multiple styles, colors, and options. In this three-part series, we want to give our best tips for the top three categories of selections and help make this as enjoyable and simple as possible. Our focus today is hardware.
Hardware
Often referred to as the jewelry of the cabinets, they also play a vital role in function since they allow homeowners easy opening and closing of doors and drawers while keeping them all clean. Here are a few things to consider when choosing hardware for your space.
Style
Modern or traditional? Farmhouse or French Country? There are plenty of style options available for you, no matter where your tastes lie. Hardware designs that are raised and elegant tend to have a more traditional feel, while smooth hardware with simple curves tends to have a more modern feel. Don’t forget about rustic and vintage; they can add unique character to the area.
Color
Brass, polished nickel, gold, silver, and oil rubbed are some of the choices offered by manufacturers, which means there is something that goes with your particular style that will perfectly blend or add the right pop needed to your design. Browse through project galleries to get inspired and find the right combination for you. Don’t be afraid to look at things that are a little bold or different; it’s your space and should be a reflection of you.
Walker WoodworkingRugs have long been a staple in interior design, often described as the “shoes” of a room—they complete the look. Whether subtly complementing a color palette or boldly standing out as a statement piece, rugs add warmth, texture, and personality to any space. A well-chosen rug can effortlessly transform the entire feel of a room.
However, traditional rugs come with their share of drawbacks. From frequent deep cleaning (which often means renting equipment and moving heavy furniture) to concerns about allergies and curled edges that pose tripping hazards, maintaining a rug can be more work than many homeowners anticipate.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce an elegant, low-maintenance alternative: Vintage Vinyl floor cloths.
In today’s tech-savvy world, it’s easy to find decorating tips and budget advice with just a few clicks.

At the heart of nearly every successful project is one key factor: staying on budget.

Walker Woodworking An organized kitchen is the foundation of a smooth cooking experience, allowing you to focus on what truly matters—creating delicious meals. When designing your new kitchen, it’s essential to plan your space thoughtfully. This includes not only considering large items but also measuring smaller essentials, such as cutlery, plates, and platters, to ensure every item has a designated space. A well-organized kitchen isn’t just visually pleasing; it makes daily tasks more efficient and enjoyable.
