Look at the January 2 post to see what it looked like at the start. We were just going to freshen up the kitchen.

Outstanding!

While I know you are more experienced at cabinets than me, have someone else verify the to-be-drilled knob holes. I drilled a hole on the hinge side of the door in one set of cabinets even after checking everything a second time.

Unrelated, my first house, built in the early sixties, had no kitchen cabinet door knobs because the bottom edge of the cabinet-grade plywood doors were milled for a finger-hold.

This was great with me because I'm a fundamental minimalist, and nice knobs/pulls always seem to corrode ahead of their depreciation schedule.

I built new cabinets for the subsequent modernized kitchen, and all new doors were constructed like the originals. The new kitchen was perfect for me.

Unfortunately, I fell in love, and sold my bachelor pad to move into "our" house.

I had occasion to visit with the new owners after they had moved in & repainted, etc the place to their liking. There were knobs on every single door.

My wife picked out some very beautiful pulls that will go nicely with the doors and moldings.
