Remodel Planning and Budgeting Tips
We’ve been there! Remodel projects can get expensive and overwhelming. The bills really seem to pile up at the end. Details like the handles and pulls are usually an after-thought in the budget and they appear right at the end.
Get ahead of costs by carefully shaping the scope of your project and adding up the costs in advance.

One remodeling tip: consider if a full-blown remodel is necessary? Save time, costs, and headaches by simply updating the surfaces rather than doing a complete furniture and cabinetry overhaul. Adding new handles and a coat of paint to an older, tired kitchen can look like a full-blown remodel on the cheap. These two elements completely change the way it looks and feels, breathing in new life.
Handles & Pulls Have an Outsize Visual Impact on Remodels
LIke a face without a nose, a bank of neatly-organized cabinets and drawers with the wrong handles just doesn’t look right!
When you look at a photo of a kitchen, or are a guest walking into the room, the handles are one of the first details the eyes are drawn to.
Use Natural Material Handles & Pulls for Warmth
Handles are the part of the kitchen you will touch and interact with the most. Everyday you will be touching the handle to open each drawer and door, making it the primary touchpoint.
That’s why it’s important to get them right!
Virtually all handles today are metal, which are cold to the touch, and sharp-edged when you knock into them with your wrists, hips, and knees. The environmental supply chain and lifecycle of metal and metal handles are long and convoluted.
In comparison, warm, natural materials like leather and wood feel cozy and homey. They have a softer “ no bumps, no bruises ” surface.
Leather and wood not only feel warm, they look warm. Their natural curves and texture soften corners and edges and bring in the traditional warmth of the hearth. And their materials have a regenerative and biodegradable environmental supply chain and life cycle. Our sustainable veg-tan leather is a byproduct of our food systems, tanned in the USA and American made.
