A Guide To Cheaply Spicing Up A Kitchen
You may not think much about cabinet hardware when considering new kitchen cabinets. You might picture new finishes that can revitalize your kitchen and give it a professional, beautiful shine. In reality, your kitchen's hardware is as important of a choice as the wood used in the cabinetry, as they can make or break the look of a cabinet and are a good indicator of cabinetry lifespan.
If you look at kitchen cabinet hardware, you will find that the choices are practically inexhaustible. Millions of different choices are available for cabinet pulls, knobs, and handles. There are also various types of latches, drawer slides and catches. Many are stainless steel or crafted from brass.
You'll have no shortage of styles to choose from, and from one to another, finish will also be different. Regardless of color or finish, they can be powder coated. You will also have to choose a shape. Just about any shape is available and they are no longer limited to hexagons, rectangles, squares or round shapes!
The wide array in sizes of kitchen cabinetry means that you'll have to be very careful if you're just planning on refinishing. You can ensure good-fitting hardware by measuring the holes on your cabinetry that the hardware will go into.
Finishes and materials vary greatly, from common styles and materials to satin nickel. Most are made of die cast, nickel-plated zinc. The metal will then be hand sanded to give it the excellent brushed look, and finally it will be given a wear resistant lacquer finish. For kitchen cabinets, pulls and knobs made from antique pewter can be a great addition, especially when highlighted in oil-rubbed bronze.
If you love the look of copper hinges, you may wish to use the die cast metals that are finished in either an antique copper finish, or perhaps a mix of antique bronze and copper! Cabinet hardware can use other materials, too. Glass and ceramics are some other common materials. Getting back to the copper hinges, you may choose to use actual copper hinges and other hardware.
Many are crafted from plastic, hard woods, or even ceramics. Perhaps you are more whimsical, and would like pulls and handles that are fashioned to look like the shape of winding vines, seashells, and geckos. There are hundreds of styles available, and sculpted images are available for just about any conceivable design. Others create an interesting effect with an aged, often-used look that can appear almost antiqued. Enthusiasts of a modern aesthetic may choose hardware that uses incorporated granite.
Many people decide to use hardware that opens after being pushed in. In that case you may wish to have highly decorative push plates instead of pulls and handles.

Frequently Asked Questions...
antique picture: thomas jefferson in his freemason outfit.?
hello - im reaching out for information on an old historical photograph we bought at an antique sale. Thomas jefferson print in a freemasons outfit. one hand holds a gavel and the other hand is resting on some books. appears to be framed in pewter with oval bubble glass. i have photographs of the picture if you could be interested in helping discover details of the print. ive checked websites and google images and have fallen short of any clues.
it is not a photograph - it IS a print. sorry for the confustion. also - i cant seem to figure out how to reply to answers. im looking for any clues to find a person who could validate the origin of the print and give me more details surrounding it.
the first link was the correct picture thank you very much we have a print of ben franklin.
Answer:
The print is probably not Jefferson, since he was not a Mason. The pose you describe however sounds like the classic Geo. Washington print which hangs in nearly every Masonic Lodge in the United States.
The original painting which the print is based off comes from the mid 1800's. Reprints became "standard equipment" in U.S. Masonic Lodges in the 1880's and continue to be to this day, and was also popular for many years among Masons and non-Masons alike as a piece of home decor- so there are many thousands of copies. The frame and glass you describe date this particular print as late 1800's to early 1900's. By the 1920's oval bubble frames were largely out of fashion. The frame and glass are probably worth more than the print itself, but so long as the print is in decent condition and depending on the material it is printed on... you could be looking at a value of about $200.00, maybe more to a Masonic collector if there is any information on if it came from a specific Lodge. (Antique frames and glass went for big money a few years ago, not so much now.)
Edit: if the print is what you are now using as your avitar image, it is Franklin, not Jefferson. Rarer than the Washington print, the Franklin print is still not that uncommon, so the value remains mostly in the frame and glass... 250 on a good day.
